Popular TikToker and content creator, Habeeb Hazmat, popularly known as Peller, has revealed that he earns between ₦15 million to ₦20 million weekly from his activities on TikTok.
Peller speaking on Rubbin’ Minds on Sunday addressed speculation about his earnings, clarifying that reports claiming he makes ₦200 million were false.
“All the conversations about me making ₦200 million are not true. I didn’t go to TikTok to make money. I went there because I wanted to be doing tap-tap. Before, I wasn’t even interested in making money on TikTok,” he said.
He credited his content strategy for his financial success, explaining that engagement techniques play a crucial role in increasing his revenue on the platform.
“In this life, you have to have strategy. I noticed that when I asked for gifts, my views go down. But when I’m just talking, I think my people love me. Even the people who say I’m not funny keep watching me when I’m just talking normally.
“Now, I just go on live stream and talk. I won’t even ask for gifts, but when I end the live, I can see like $2,000 or $3,000 for just 20 to 30 minutes.”
Despite earning millions, Peller revealed that he does not go live every day but still generates significant income.
“I don’t do live streams every day. You don’t have to show your face every day. In a week, I can go live like three times.
“In one live, I have made like $10,000 when I played big match. I was surprised because I was always making like $7,000,” he explained.
On TikTok’s revenue system, Peller noted that the platform takes a percentage of the earnings before creators can withdraw their funds.
“Like that $2,000, if you collect it on TikTok, you can withdraw maybe $1,500 because of TikTok’s percentage.”
