Her paying subscribers alone would make her $29,148 USD per month, considering she gets $3.50 per subscriber as a top-tier Twitch partner.

Other High-Earning Female Twitch Streamers

Popular Twitch Streamer Amouranth has 9,759 subscribers on Twitch according to Twitch Tracker. If we multiply this by $3.50 we conclude that she makes $34,156 USD per month from her Twitch subscribers alone.
Amouranth of course has many other income sources such as her ASMR and Vlog Youtube channels which have 860k combined subscribers.
And of course, Amouranth has very popular Onlyfans and Patreon accounts as well.

Lily also has a popular Youtube channel with 2.7 million subscribers which according to SocialBlade, brings in an extra $27k USD per month.
Hafu

Average Female Twitch Streamers Income
Of course, Pokimane is very popular (and rightly so!) and her numbers are way above the average.
For example, Pokimane receives 70% per subscriber as a Top-Tier Twitch Partner. Twitch Partners and affiliates with less than 10,000 average viewers receive just 50% of the subscriber fee.
While this may not sound like much of a difference, we’re still talking about a whole dollar per subscriber.
Don’t let these facts discourage you though, you can still make a lot of money as a Twitch streamer.
For example in a Ludwig video, he mentioned that a Twitch streamer with just 100 average viewers, can make up to $1500 per month from Twitch alone.
This makes sense if you consider that the average female Twitch streamer with 100 average viewers likely has around 150 – 200 subscribers. Good for $300 to $500 per month. 100 average viewers would likely bring in another $150 from advertisements.
The majority of the money for a smaller streamer comes from donations. For example streamer, Kandyland earns about $6.76 per subscriber according to a dataspot study.
Kandyland is far from a smaller streamer though but that’s good as smaller streamers are even more likely to get donations from their fans and viewers.
Even if we assume a $5 per subscriber ratio, that would still amount to $750 to $1000 for a female Twitch streamer with 100 average viewers.
Adding our calculations up, we can assume that a small female Twitch streamer with 100 average viewers can earn anywhere from $1200 to $1650 from Twitch alone.
