As a KOME host, your income isn't limited to a single source. The KOME Live platform offers four distinct earning types that can each generate significant diamond income. This guide breaks down every earning type in full detail — rates, payment modes, strategies, and how to maximize each one.
The 4 KOME Host Income Types
- Personal Profile Video Calls
- Match Calls
- Gifts (Virtual Gifts)
- Text Chat
Understanding each type — and how to optimize them individually — is the difference between a host earning $10/week and one earning $500/week with the same number of hours invested.
Income Type 1: Personal Profile Video Calls
When a user browses the KOME platform and taps your profile to call you directly, you earn diamonds for the duration of the call. This is the highest-earning income type per minute and has the most variance in rates depending on how the user paid for the call.
| Payment Method | Diamonds per Minute | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Diamond top-up | 1,120 – 1,750 | Highest rate, most common |
| Call card Level A | 700 | From 2nd minute onwards |
| Call card Level B | 350 | From 2nd minute onwards |
| Call discount card | 90% of original price | Slight discount applied |
A 10-minute profile call from a user paying with diamond top-ups at the higher rate (1,750 diamonds/min) generates 17,500 diamonds — equivalent to $1.75. That scales to $175 for 100 such calls per week, achievable with a growing loyal user base.
Tips for maximizing profile calls:
- Use a high-quality, professional profile photo with good lighting
- Set your call price at a competitive rate for your market (start slightly lower to attract early callers)
- Stay consistently online during peak hours your audience is active
- Keep your response rate high — users who reach voicemail often don't call back
Income Type 2: Match Calls
Match calls are platform-assigned connections. When you enable Match mode, the KOME algorithm connects you with users who are looking to speak with a host but haven't selected a specific profile. These are a critical income source for new hosts who don't yet have a loyal caller base.
| Match Call Type | Your Earnings | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Diamond top-up calls | 70% of call value | 280 – 700 diamonds/min |
| Call card calls | Standard card rate | From 2nd minute |
Match calls are excellent for consistent passive income. Enable match mode during your active hours and let the platform fill your schedule. The key limitation is that you have no control over who you're matched with — platform usage patterns determine call volume.
Income Type 3: Virtual Gifts
Users can send virtual gifts during live streams, calls, and from your profile. These gifts are purchased with diamonds and you receive a percentage of the gift's value. Gift earnings range from 35% to 70% of the gift's total diamond value.
Gifts are a high-value income source because they're completely voluntary tipping — users send them to show appreciation and support. Building a loyal community that regularly sends gifts can generate significant income even during slow call weeks.
How to encourage gifts:
- Acknowledge every gift by name in real time during streams
- Thank gift-senders personally and show genuine appreciation
- Create gift milestone goals ("If we reach X total gifts this stream, I'll do Y")
- Recognize your top gifters regularly to incentivize repeat gifting
- Go live at consistent, predictable times so regular viewers know when to find you
Income Type 4: Text Chat
Paid text chat allows users to send you messages for a per-message fee. As a host, you earn 35–140 diamonds per paid message received. VIP users can message for free, but these tend to be your highest-value engaged users who also call frequently and send gifts.
Text chat is a lower-revenue-per-interaction income type but requires minimal time investment — you can respond to messages between calls or during downtime. Over time, an active text chat presence keeps users engaged between live sessions and reinforces loyalty.
How Earnings Are Calculated
All four income types generate diamonds into your host wallet. At 10,000 diamonds = $1 USD, your wallet accumulates USD value as you receive diamonds. Once your wallet reaches $10 minimum, you can request a withdrawal at any time. Processing takes up to 3 working days through bank transfer or Epay.
Weekly Earnings Projection by Activity Level
| Activity Level | Daily Hours | Weekly Diamonds | Weekly USD |
|---|---|---|---|
| Casual | 1–2 hours | 100,000–300,000 | $10–$30 |
| Part-time | 3–4 hours | 500,000–1,000,000 | $50–$100 |
| Active | 5–6 hours | 1,000,000–5,000,000 | $100–$500 |
| Full-time | 7+ hours | 5,000,000–10,000,000+ | $500–$1,000+ |
