TikTok Pulse Calculator: Estimate Your Ad Revenue Share in 2026

Calculate your estimated earnings from TikTok Pulse — TikTok's program that places brand ads next to top-performing content and shares 50% of ad revenue with creators.

Mathematical Audit

How TikTok Pulse Earnings Are Calculated

TikTok Pulse shares 50% of ad revenue with creators whose videos appear in the top 4% of content on the platform. Revenue is CPM-based — you earn per 1,000 monetized views.

Pulse Earnings = (Monetized Views / 1,000) × Pulse CPM × 0.50
Pulse CPM Range: $2–$8 (standard) | $6–$15 (premium Pulse Select)
Monetized Views ≈ Total Views × Pulse Eligibility Rate (typically 40–60% for qualifying creators)

Only the top 4% of videos by views on a given day qualify for TikTok Pulse. Pulse Select offers higher CPMs for curated lineups.
