Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about earnings, training and your first LIVEs.
Getting started
What is LiveLAB and what do you do?
We're a TikTok LIVE creator agency. We help people start streaming and earn from their LIVEs: free training, a personal manager and hands-on support for your first 10 days. LiveLAB is an independent agency and is not affiliated with TikTok.
How old do I need to be?
18 or older. In the US we don't work with anyone under 18 — no exceptions, even with parental consent. We may ask you to confirm your age during onboarding.
Do I need experience? I've never streamed
No experience needed — most of our creators started from zero. The path: short application → training (~40 minutes, 5 modules) → quiz → test LIVE → a 10-day kickstart with a manager who walks you through everything.
What do I need to get started?
A phone with a decent camera, a stable internet connection, a quiet, well-lit place to stream and 2–4 hours a day. That's it — no special equipment required to start.
Do I need 1,000 followers to go LIVE?
No. We help set up your LIVE access through the agency, so you don't have to grow to 1,000 followers first. Your manager will explain the exact steps for your account.
Money
How much can I earn?
Your income comes from the gifts (diamonds) viewers send during your LIVEs. First streams are usually modest — that's normal: for most new creators the first LIVE brings 0–500 diamonds. After that, growth depends on consistency. Our top creators earn hundreds of thousands of diamonds a month, which is thousands of dollars. Results shown on our site are top examples, not averages or guarantees.
Do you take a commission?
No. LiveLAB doesn't take a commission from your earnings — what you earn is yours.
Do I have to pay anything?
No. Joining is free, training is free, and there are no hidden fees. If anyone ever asks you to pay to join LiveLAB, it isn't us — please let us know.
How do payouts work?
Your manager walks you through how and when you get paid before your first LIVE, so everything is clear from day one. You can see real examples on our
payout wall.
Streaming
What is a test LIVE?
A short practice stream after training: we check your lighting, sound and how you come across on camera. It's not a diamonds test — just a warm-up so your first "real" LIVE isn't scary.
How much do I need to stream?
We recommend 2–4 hours a day, 5+ days a week — consistency matters more than length. Your first 10 days are a kickstart program with daily tasks and support from your manager.
What does my manager do?
Your manager is your personal coach at the agency: they help with your first LIVE, review what worked and what didn't, give tips on content and battles, and answer your questions. You can reach them on Telegram or WhatsApp.
What content is allowed?
You follow TikTok's Community Guidelines — no exceptions. Your manager will help you build a format that fits you and stays within the rules.
