Pokimane is one of the most influential and popular female streamers, period. But what exactly is Pokimane's net worth?
With millions of followers and a long history on the platform, Pokimane is one of the OGs of Twitch. The 26-year-old Moroccan-Canadian started streaming all the way back in 2013 and has been standing at the top of Twitch for a long time. But how wealthy is Pokimane?
Well, determining Pokimane's net worth is a matter of calculation, since it's easy enough to get the facts on some of the figures she's earning. So let's start by doing just that – adding up numbers:
- Pokimane has 9.2 million followers on Twitch
- She has about 8 million subscribers over all her YouTube channels
- She makes 70% of her money from Twitch subs
- A Tier 1 Twitch sub earns her $3.50
- Twitch streamers average about $2 per 1000 viewers
If you put two and two together and consider the fact that Pokimane also receives a ton of donations, you arrive at a staggering number. She even capped her donations at $5 because she got more money from it than she felt comfortable accepting.
i capped my donations a year ago since i'm now at a point where sponsors, investments, and exclusive contracts can sustain me. transparently, subs + stream ads are the lowest part of my income and i want you guys to continue keeping that money in your pocket. TREAT YOURSELVES

Pokimane's Net Worth Is Estimated At Over $2 Million
Yup, that's right. Little Pokimane, the simp queen of Twitch, is sitting pretty on a couple milli, with an estimated net worth of over $2 million dollars.
This also goes hand in hand with numbers that appeared online after Twitch's top earners' pay was revealed:

Based off of these leaks, Pokimane earned about $1.5 million from August 2019 until October 2021.
Since then, Imane has grown considerably across her various social media, so her revenue should be higher than this by now.
The same leak also revealed that Pokimane earned $40k in September 2021, which, if you add it up, suggests that Pokimane earned close to $500k in 2021 alone.
Of course, it is important to note that those numbers are gross values, and do not include donations, nor external revenue like sponsors.
Since then, she gained some followers on Twitch and YouTube, but also cut back on creating content, in general.
This might not have hurt her net worth, because we don't see a stark decline in her viewer numbers, and her follower count is still rising.
It seems though as if her inactivity this year has staggered her growth. With this, her net worth hasn't really changed all that much since 2021.
All in all, it is clear that Pokimane is still not strapped for cash, and we're certain that COVID helped her rise in the income bracket, due to most people being confined to the digital realm for social activities.
Of course, Pokimane is not the only influencer making a pretty penny: PewDiePie's net worth might just shock you, and Jake Paul is also raking in cash by the boatloads.
