TikTok top earners Addison Rae, Stokes Twins, and Bella Poarch.

While Instagram still seems to net creators the most money for their content, plenty of social media influencers are making bank on TikTok. Some of the top earners on the app won't surprise you, because they were already stars in their own right on other social media platforms and as well as within the entertainment industry.

However, a few of the top earners of TikTok are not yet household names — at least for the older-than-Gen-Z crowd.

The TikTok Rich List compiled by UK gambling site Casumo, plots which creators in the U.S. and across the pond are earning the most per post. All these figures are estimates, of course, since creator income isn't public record.

Kylie Jenner: an estimated $150k per post

There is a tie for first in terms of estimated earnings per post, but Kylie gets the edge due to having more subscribers. With 41.2 million followers, the lip kit queen hasn't met a social media app she can't dominate. Of course, it's safe to assume her TikTok income is a drop in the bucket of Kylie Jenner's net worth compared to her Instagram earnings, as well as her family's many other businesses.

Charli D’Amelio: $100k per post

Charli is pretty much synonymous with the concept of TikTok famous and has been called its "reigning queen." Since she started uploading lip syncs and dances to the app in 2019, she has parlayed social media fame into a TV show with her sister Dixie, music video appearances, and voice acting. Despite having a bigger fanbase of 142.1 million followers than the top players on this list, her estimated earnings per post are $100,000 apiece.
