Bigo Live Coins Explained: Diamonds vs Beans
Are Bigo Live coins, Diamonds and Beans the same? Learn the differences between sending gifts, buying a balance and earning income as a host.
The balance people search for as Bigo Live 'coins' is not a single concept. Distinguish Diamonds used for purchases and gifts from Beans on the host earnings side. Do not make a transaction before checking the unit's name on screen.
Why are the two balances confused?
Diamonds are the unit encountered by users who want to send gifts. Beans are a different balance shown in a host's gift earnings. Do not treat them as the same wallet amount or monetary value. If a DostGame product title says Diamonds, do not interpret your purchase as Beans.
Before making a transaction
- Read whether the screen says Diamonds, Beans or a separate campaign-specific point.
- Check the product quantity and the account information requested.
- If selecting a gift, verify the required Diamonds and correct recipient.
- If withdrawing earnings, check your account's withdrawal conditions instead of a shopping page.
Event points and prices
An event's points may differ from a normal Diamond or Beans balance. Read reward, draw and conversion conditions on the event's own screen. A fixed Diamonds–Beans–TRY ratio cannot be used for every transaction; package prices and payment conditions must be assessed separately.
