Official Bigo Live agency: become a host in Latin America and the US
Golden Ink Group is an official Bigo Live agency. We register you as a host, train you, agree realistic hour targets with you and support you all the way to payout. Five years of experience and a network of more than 3,500 creators, all in Latin America and the United States: the only region we work with.
How a Bigo Live agency works
Bigo Live organises its hosts into agencies, which appear in the platform as broadcasters. This is not an optional middleman: it is the structure the platform itself uses to distribute targets, bonuses and event access. A host outside an agency can stream, but sits outside almost everything that makes it worthwhile.
The agency handles official onboarding, training, monthly target tracking and support. What it does not do is pay you: Bigo does, directly to your account.
Requirements
- 18 or older, with valid ID for verification.
- A phone with a camera and a stable connection. Bigo is very sensitive to signal quality: a stream that drops every ten minutes retains nobody.
- Availability to meet targets, measured in valid hours and active days per month.
- No active strikes.
No minimum follower count. On Bigo, consistency matters far more than your starting point.
How Bigo Live hosts earn
| Source | What it depends on | Who controls it |
|---|---|---|
| Audience gifts | How many people show up and how much they support you. Gifts become beans, beans become money under the current table. | Your audience and your work |
| Target bonuses | Valid hours and active days in the month. The most predictable part, and what sustains beginners. | You, with discipline |
For someone starting out, target bonuses often matter as much as gifts. It is the part you fully control: it depends on showing up, not on someone deciding to gift you.

Bigo Live or TikTok LIVE?
There is no single answer, but there is a criterion. TikTok LIVE offers far higher reach potential: the algorithm can bring you new viewers with no existing community, which makes growth faster but more erratic. Bigo Live rewards consistency through a more predictable target and bonus system, and its community is about retaining a few rather than reaching many.
In practice many of our creators split hours across both. If you need predictability in month one, Bigo is usually the better first stop; if you want a higher ceiling, look at our TikTok LIVE agency.
We only work with creators who live in Latin America or the United States. We accept applications from Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, United States, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Uruguay and Venezuela. We cannot onboard creators from any other country.
More than one platform
Every platform pays differently, rewards different content and has its own community. Spreading your hours is what stops an algorithm change from wiping out your income. We are also a TikTok LIVE agency, an Alii agency and a Clapper agency, and we help you decide where to start and when to expand.

Frequently asked questions
What is an official Bigo Live agency?
Bigo Live organises its hosts into agencies, also called broadcasters. The agency registers you as an official host, sets your hour targets and supports you through training and payouts. Without an agency you can still stream, but you fall outside the target programmes and events that distribute most of the incentives.
What are the requirements to become a Bigo Live host?
Be 18 or older, hold valid ID for verification, own a phone with a working camera and a stable connection, and be available to meet a minimum number of hours and active days per month. No previous follower count is required.
How much does Bigo Live pay?
Gifts convert to beans, and beans to money under the table Bigo applies in your country. On top of that there are bonuses for hitting hour and day targets, which in practice often matter as much as gifts for someone starting out. The tables are set by the platform and change, so any agency quoting you an exact figure before watching you stream is selling you a story.
How do hour targets work?
They are measured in valid hours and active days within the month. They are agreed with you before you start and adjusted to your real availability. We prefer a modest target you hit every month over an ambitious one that burns you out in three weeks.
Can I stream on Bigo Live and TikTok LIVE at the same time?
Yes, they are independent platforms and many of our creators split their hours. What you cannot do is stream on both simultaneously if one set of targets requires exclusive hours. We help you build a schedule that does not clash.
How do I withdraw my money?
From your own Bigo account, using the methods and timelines the platform enables in your country. The money never passes through the agency. We support you through verification and keep you informed about timing, but Bigo is who pays you.
Is Bigo Live safe?
It is an established platform with identity verification and strict content rules. As with any live platform, problems come from breaking those rules without knowing them. Part of the training is explaining exactly what is prohibited before it costs you the account.
Which countries can I host from with you?
Only Latin America and the United States. We only work with creators who live in those countries and cannot onboard hosts from any other region.
Do I have to pay anything?
No. No signup fee, no monthly fee, no charge for training. If someone asks for money upfront to activate you as an official host, that is not an agency: it is a scam with a very familiar script.
