Two gifts on TikTok LIVE look almost identical and cost exactly 500 coins each: one is pink, the other blue-violet. The pink one is the Money Gun, so the quick answer to “how much is a Money Gun on TikTok” is 500 coins, exactly half the price of a Galaxy. The table below puts the two side by side.
Money Gun or Gem Gun? Same price, not the same gift
| Detail | Money Gun | Gem Gun |
|---|---|---|
| Color | pink | blue-violet |
| Banknote | TikTok logo and a 100 | gem symbol and a 100 |
| Price | 500 coins | 500 coins |
| Who can send it | any viewer | viewers at Gifter Level 15 or higher |
| What you get | roughly 250 Diamonds, about $1.25 | roughly 250 Diamonds, about $1.25 |
Besides the color, the banknote gives it away: the Money Gun’s shows the TikTok logo, the Gem Gun’s a gem. The bigger difference is who can send it: TikTok locks the Gem Gun until Gifter Level 15, while anyone with 500 coins can send a Money Gun.
For you as the creator, both are worth exactly the same. Whenever this article says Money Gun, it means the pink one.
How much is a Money Gun worth on TikTok?

| Price in the gift panel | 500 coins |

The TikTok Money Gun, up close
The TikTok Money Gun gift is a glossy pink cash gun with “TikTok” printed on its side and a mint-green banknote stamped with a 100 flying out in front of it, as if it had just been fired. It’s available in all 95 regions we checked, so creators in the US, Germany, Spain, or Thailand all get the same pink gun.
For viewers, it’s a big jump from a handful of roses, yet it stays well below the price of the big showpiece gifts. The name does the rest: nobody in chat has to guess what a Money Gun means.
Give each gun its own alert
A Money Gun can get lost in a busy chat, and so can its blue-violet twin. TikFinity lists the two as separate gifts, so each one gets its own event, with your sound, your GIF, and the sender’s name on stream.
1 Open Actions & Events in TikFinity and create an action, for example a GIF plus a sound.
2 Add an event, choose “Sending a specific gift”, and pick the Money Gun. Depending on your TikFinity version, it may show up under another name, even a translated one, so look for the pink gun.
3 Add a second event the same way for the Gem Gun, the blue-violet one. It can use the same action or one of its own.
4 Add your overlay screen to OBS Studio or TikTok LIVE Studio, then fire a test with the Event Simulator to see both alerts on stream. Our TikTok alerts guide walks you through every click.
One action can serve both guns. Add a text-to-speech line to it, and your stream reads out the sender’s name, whichever gun they picked.
Want senders to get something back for it? Hook both guns up to a Wheel of Actions, a TikFinity Pro overlay: the gift spins the wheel, and the segment it lands on fires an action of your choice, a sound, a GIF, or an OBS scene switch. That way the sender gets more than a thank-you, they get a result.
