Fortnite Twitch streamer Ninja is making $500,000 a month
Fortnite streamer Tyler "Ninja" Blevins currently makes around $500,000 a month.
The 26-year-old former professional Halo player told CNBC his astonishing monthly revenue comes from a combination of factors that includes his mammoth 3.7m Twitch followers, 5m YouTube subscribers and millions of social media followers.
The bulk of the revenue comes from Amazon and Twitch Prime subscribers, however. It costs $4.99 a month to subscribe to a streamer's channel. In the interview, Ninja said he had benefited from a promotion between Twitch and Fortnite maker Epic that lets Amazon and Twitch Prime subscribers obtain loot in the free-to-download Battle Royale game. This is "one of the main reasons for the influx of subscribers currently to my stream" he said.
