Through LIVE Fan Club, viewers who send \u2018Heart Me\u2019 gifts during livestreams are automatically added to a creator’s Fan Club.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Social Media Today <\/i>reports that TikTok has started promoting Fan Clubs mainly in Asian markets, where livestream commerce is booming.<\/a><\/p>\n

Several creators have built businesses through TikTok’s livestreaming tools. TikTok cited a number of livestreamers including a creator named Vanessa of @deliciousnessbakery<\/b><\/a>, who increased her monthly rewards sixfold within six months of starting regular livestreams.<\/p>\n

TikTok has expanded its livestreaming initiatives globally through regional campaigns like the LIVE Grand Prix in Japan and the LIVE Legends events in the Middle East and North Africa.<\/p>\n

TikTok\u2019s LIVE Fan Club launch comes amid the booming creator economy. The global live streaming market reached $38.87 billion<\/b> in 2022 and is expected to hit around $256.56 billion <\/b>by 2032, according to data<\/a> from Custom Market Insights.<\/p>\n

Beyond regular creators, TikTok has also hosted livestream events for artists. In February 2021, Justin<\/b> Bieber<\/b> performed<\/a> a LIVE concert on TikTok, which marked the first ever single-artist, full-length concert performance to air LIVE on the platform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
