·Live Streaming Hub

Need StarMaker Coins Before Sending a Gift?

Topuplist offers direct StarMaker Coins recharge for Global Server accounts. Select a package, enter your numeric StarMaker SID and complete payment—no StarMaker password or verification code is required.

Current packages range from 60 to 14,000 Coins, with selected discounts of up to 21%. Prices and promotions may change, so check the live product page before ordering.

Recharge StarMaker Coins on Topuplist

Sending a gift on StarMaker is usually straightforward: enter a supported Live or Party Room, open the gift panel, choose a virtual gift, confirm the recipient and spend the required Coins.

The difficult part is not pressing the Send button. It is making sure that:

  • You are using the correct StarMaker account

  • You have enough Coins

  • The correct singer or host is selected

  • The quantity is set correctly

  • The room has not switched microphone users

  • The gift was successfully processed

StarMaker officially supports Live broadcasting, Live Duets, Party Rooms, Families and room-based social interaction. Coins are sold separately as in-app purchases, while Topuplist describes live-streaming gifts and room items as core uses of StarMaker Coins.

This guide explains the complete gift-sending process without repeating which gift is best for birthdays, competitions or PK Battles.

What Are StarMaker Gifts?

StarMaker gifts are virtual items that users purchase with Coins and send during supported social activities.

Depending on the room and current app version, a gift may:

  • Display an animation

  • Show the sender and recipient names

  • Appear in the room activity feed

  • Support a singer, host or creator

  • Contribute to selected room or event metrics

  • Unlock an interaction effect

Topuplist currently lists live gifts, interaction effects, room items and creator support among the main uses of StarMaker Coins.

Gifts Are Different from StarMaker Pro

StarMaker Coins and StarMaker Pro are separate purchase systems.

Coins are consumable. The balance decreases when you send gifts or purchase eligible virtual items.

StarMaker Pro is a time-based membership. The official App Store page describes Pro subscription packages separately from individual Coin purchases.

Buying Coins does not automatically activate a full Pro subscription, and subscribing to Pro does not automatically provide unlimited Coins unless a specific offer explicitly says so.

Where Can You Send Gifts on StarMaker?

Gift availability depends on the account, region, room type and app version.

Common supported locations may include:

  • Live broadcasts

  • Party Rooms

  • Live Duet sessions

  • Host-led karaoke rooms

  • Family rooms

  • Special events

  • PK Battles

  • Other room-based activities

StarMaker’s official App Store listing confirms that users can go Live, join Live Duets, host karaoke parties in Party Rooms and participate in Family communities. Its Google Play page also describes room creation, group singing, games and social interaction.

Not every song page or recorded cover will display the same gift controls. A gift button available during a Live may not appear on a normal song-search page or replay.

What You Need Before Sending a StarMaker Gift

Before opening the gift panel, confirm three things.

A Logged-In Account

Check that you are logged into the account containing the Coin balance you intend to use.

This is especially important when:

  • You manage multiple StarMaker accounts

  • You recently changed devices

  • You logged in through another phone number or social account

  • You are purchasing Coins for a friend

Enough StarMaker Coins

The gift panel should display the Coin cost of each available item.

Do not buy a large Coin package before checking the gift price. A safer order is:

  1. Open the room

  2. Find the intended gift

  3. Check its Coin cost

  4. Decide how many times to send it

  5. Recharge only the amount you expect to use

A Supported Room and Recipient

Confirm that:

  • The room is still Live

  • The intended singer is still on the microphone

  • The selected profile belongs to the correct user

  • The gift is directed to a person rather than the whole room

  • The gift is available in your region and current app version

How to Check Your StarMaker Coin Balance

The exact menu names may differ by version, but Coin balances can usually be found through:

  • The profile or Me section

  • A wallet or recharge page

  • The gift panel inside a Live room

  • The account or payment section

If the displayed balance looks incorrect:

  1. Confirm the current account.

  2. Close and reopen the gift panel.

  3. Refresh the room.

  4. Restart StarMaker.

  5. Check whether a recent recharge is still processing.

  6. Review available transaction records where supported.

Topuplist instructs users to check the balance in the StarMaker app after Coins are credited.

How to Send Gifts in a StarMaker Live Room

The interface may change, but the standard process is as follows.

Step 1: Enter a Live Broadcast

Open StarMaker and find a currently active Live through the app’s available discovery or room sections.

Make sure you are viewing the live broadcast rather than:

  • A replay

  • A recorded cover

  • A profile preview

  • A finished event page

Step 2: Find the Gift Button

Look around the lower interaction area for an icon resembling:

  • A gift box

  • A present

  • A reward

  • A Coin

  • A room-interaction menu

When the gift icon is missing:

  • Wait for the room to finish loading

  • Check whether the Live has ended

  • Update StarMaker

  • Look inside the More menu

  • Confirm that the room supports gifts

  • Check whether your account has interaction restrictions

Step 3: Open the Gift Panel

The gift panel may contain categories such as:

  • Popular

  • Basic

  • Premium

  • Event

  • Celebration

  • PK

  • Limited-time

Gift names, prices and availability can change. Use the current in-app panel as the source of truth rather than relying on an old screenshot.

Step 4: Check the Coin Price

Before choosing a gift, review:

  • Cost per gift

  • Current Coin balance

  • Selected quantity

  • Whether repeat sending is enabled

  • Whether the gift has an event or PK label

A large animation does not always mean that the gift offers better value or special ranking effects.

Step 5: Confirm the Recipient

Check:

  • Profile picture

  • Username

  • Current microphone position

  • Highlighted participant

  • Host or singer label

  • Team or PK side, where applicable

This is the most important step. Once a virtual gift is successfully sent, it may be difficult or impossible to move it to another user.

Step 6: Select the Quantity

Some gift panels let you send:

  • One gift

  • A fixed bundle

  • Multiple gifts

  • A continuous combo

Before confirming an expensive item, make sure the selected quantity is 1 unless you intentionally want to send more.

Step 7: Tap Send Once

After tapping Send:

  • Wait for the interface to respond

  • Watch for the animation

  • Check the room message

  • Review the remaining Coin balance

  • Avoid tapping repeatedly during network lag

How to Send Gifts in a StarMaker Party Room

Party Rooms require more attention because several users may be speaking or singing.

Step 1: Identify the Current Singer

Look for:

  • A highlighted microphone

  • An active voice indicator

  • The participant’s displayed name

  • The host’s announcement

  • A colored border around the avatar

  • A visible singing queue

Do not send a high-value gift while the room is changing microphone users.

Step 2: Select the Intended Participant

Tap the singer’s or host’s avatar if the room requires recipient selection.

Confirm that the name displayed in the gift panel matches the person you want to support.

Step 3: Check Whether the Gift Is Personal or Room-Wide

A gift may be directed to:

  • The current singer

  • The room owner

  • A co-host

  • A selected microphone user

  • A team

  • The room as a whole

Do not assume every room gift automatically goes to the host.

Step 4: Send a Small Test Gift When Unsure

A low-cost test gift can confirm:

  • The selected recipient

  • Whether the gift panel works

  • Whether the Coin balance updates

  • Whether the room displays the gift correctly

How to Gift a StarMaker Host Instead of the Singer

In a Party Room, the host may not be the person currently singing.

To support the host:

  1. Locate the room owner or host profile.

  2. Tap the host’s avatar.

  3. Open the available interaction options.

  4. Confirm that the host name is displayed as the recipient.

  5. Choose the gift and quantity.

  6. Send only after checking again.

If the interface does not let you select the host directly, wait for the host to return to an active microphone position or ask how room gifts are assigned.

How to Support Multiple StarMaker Singers

One gift should not automatically be assumed to support every singer in a group or duet.

For multiple performers:

  • Select each recipient separately

  • Use smaller gifts to divide the budget

  • Confirm the microphone position each time

  • Wait for the room interface to update

  • Avoid rapid sending during participant changes

How to Send Multiple Gifts or Gift Combos

Repeat sending allows viewers to send the same item several times.

Depending on the version, it may appear as:

  • Combo

  • Repeat

  • Multi-send

  • Quantity selection

  • Rapid tapping

Each successful send may deduct the full Coin cost.

How to Prevent Accidental Multiple Sends

  • Check the quantity before confirming

  • Tap Send once

  • Wait for the balance to update

  • Avoid rapid tapping during lag

  • Disable one-tap purchases where possible

  • Close the panel if the app becomes unresponsive

Do Gift Combos Give Bonus Value?

Not necessarily.

A combo may produce a longer animation without providing:

  • A discount

  • Extra PK points

  • A ranking bonus

  • Better creator conversion

Check the current event or gift description before assuming a combo has additional benefits.

What Happens After a Gift Is Sent?

A successful gift may trigger:

  • An animation

  • A sender notification

  • A recipient notification

  • A room activity message

  • A contribution update

  • A Coin balance reduction

Does the Singer Receive the Same Number of Coins?

Do not treat the transaction as a direct one-to-one cash transfer.

These may be separate:

  • Viewer Coins

  • Virtual gift value

  • Creator reward units

  • Event contribution

  • Withdrawable earnings

The receiving creator’s final benefits depend on StarMaker’s current creator, event and regional policies.

Does Sending a Gift Guarantee a Reply?

No.

A gift does not guarantee:

  • A shout-out

  • A follow

  • A private message

  • A song request

  • A microphone position

  • Personal contact

  • Special treatment

Gifts should be treated as voluntary entertainment spending.

How to Confirm That a StarMaker Gift Was Sent

Look for several confirmation signals rather than relying on the animation alone.

Common Signs of Success

  • The gift animation appears

  • The sender and recipient appear in the room feed

  • The Coin balance decreases

  • A contribution or event score changes

  • A consumption record appears where available

  • The recipient receives an alert

Signs the Gift May Still Be Processing

  • The Send button is temporarily disabled

  • The animation is delayed

  • The room stops updating

  • The Coin balance has not refreshed

  • A loading indicator remains visible

  • The network connection becomes unstable

Safe Confirmation Process

  1. Wait several seconds.

  2. Check the Coin balance.

  3. Close and reopen the gift panel.

  4. Refresh the room.

  5. Review transaction or consumption records where available.

  6. Send again only when the first attempt is confirmed as unsuccessful.

Refresh Without Causing a Duplicate Send

Before refreshing:

  • Take a screenshot

  • Record the recipient name

  • Note the gift name

  • Check the current balance

  • Do not tap Send again

Then:

  1. Close the gift panel.

  2. Re-enter the room.

  3. Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data if needed.

  4. Restart StarMaker.

  5. Check available account records.

What If Coins Were Deducted Twice?

Possible reasons include:

  • Double tapping

  • Repeat-send mode

  • A quantity greater than one

  • Network delay

  • The first animation appearing late

  • A combo feature remaining active

Prepare the following information before contacting support:

  • StarMaker SID

  • Gift name

  • Quantity

  • Recipient

  • Room name

  • Date and time

  • Balance before and after

  • Screenshots or screen recording

StarMaker’s official App Store and Google Play listings currently provide [email protected] for app-related support.

What If You Sent a Gift to the Wrong Singer?

Contact StarMaker support as soon as possible, but do not assume the gift can be reversed.

Common causes include:

  • A Party Room microphone switch

  • Selecting the host instead of the singer

  • Similar usernames

  • Looking at the wrong PK side

  • A duet participant changing position

  • Sending during network lag

A successful virtual gift should generally be treated as consumed once delivered.

How to Prevent Wrong-Recipient Gifts

  • Wait until the microphone position is stable

  • Check the avatar and name

  • Open the recipient’s profile

  • Send a low-cost test gift

  • Disable repeat sending

  • Reconfirm the recipient before premium gifts

How to Recharge StarMaker Coins on Topuplist

Step 1: Open the Real StarMaker Recharge Page

Use:

https://topuplist.com/product/starmaker

Step 2: Check the Gift Cost First

Return to StarMaker and identify:

  • The gift’s Coin cost

  • Planned quantity

  • Current balance

  • Required shortage

Use:

Coins Needed = Gift Cost × Quantity − Current Balance

Add only a small reserve if you expect to send another gift.

Step 3: Choose a Coin Package

Topuplist currently offers multiple Global Server packages from 60 to 14,000 Coins. Current prices range from $0.78 for 60 Coins to $198.65 for 14,000 Coins, but live prices may change according to discounts, exchange rates and market conditions.

Step 4: Find Your StarMaker SID

Topuplist currently instructs users to:

  1. Log in to StarMaker.

  2. Tap Me in the lower-right corner.

  3. Locate the numeric SID.

  4. Copy it directly.

Step 5: Verify Every Digit

The SID determines which account receives the Coins.

Topuplist warns that an incorrect SID is a major cause of failed delivery and that some orders sent to an incorrect SID may not be recoverable.

Step 6: Complete Payment

Topuplist currently lists support for:

  • Visa

  • Mastercard

  • PayPal

  • Apple Pay

  • Google Pay

The exact options displayed depend on the country and checkout environment.

Step 7: Confirm the Coin Balance

After payment:

  1. Open StarMaker.

  2. Confirm the correct account.

  3. Refresh the balance.

  4. Save the Topuplist order number.

  5. Return to the Live room only after Coins are visible.

Topuplist states that most StarMaker orders are completed within a few minutes, but users should avoid recharging during the final seconds of an event.

Is StarMaker SID Recharge Safe?

A SID functions as the receiving identifier for direct recharge. It does not provide account-login access by itself.

Topuplist’s StarMaker page states that SID recharge does not require:

  • Your StarMaker password

  • An SMS verification code

  • An email verification code

  • Access to your StarMaker login

  • Remote access to your device

Never provide those details to a private seller.

Can StarMaker Gifts Be Refunded?

Successfully delivered digital gifts and Coins are generally difficult to reverse.

Topuplist’s sales policy states that once a paid direct top-up enters delivery or the API process, it is final and cannot be modified or cancelled. Delivered digital products generally cannot be refunded, transferred or exchanged unless delivery fails because of a Topuplist system error.

Before ordering or sending:

  • Verify the SID

  • Verify the receiving account

  • Check the gift price

  • Check the quantity

  • Confirm the recipient

  • Review the final payment amount

  • Likes

  • Comments

  • Follows

  • Shares

  • Staying active in the room

  • Joining conversations

  • Respectful song feedback

  • Inviting friends to watch

StarMaker officially describes itself as a music community built around karaoke, Live performances, duets, rooms and social interaction.

A meaningful comment or follow may be more useful than an expensive gift sent without genuine interest.

Common StarMaker Gift Mistakes

Sending Before Checking the Recipient

This is especially risky in Party Rooms, group performances and PK Battles.

Tapping Repeatedly During Lag

A delayed animation does not necessarily mean the first send failed.

Buying Coins Before Checking the Gift Price

Choose the gift first, then calculate the required balance.

Confusing Coins with StarMaker Pro

Pro membership and Coins are separate purchase systems.

Assuming One Gift Supports Every Duet Singer

Confirm who is selected before sending.

Assuming Every Gift Counts Toward Ranking

Only specific events or PK rules determine whether a gift adds ranking points.

Expecting an Automatic Refund

Virtual gifts are generally treated as consumed after successful delivery.

Sharing Credentials with a Private Seller

A legitimate SID recharge does not require your StarMaker password or OTP.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I send a gift on StarMaker?

Enter a supported Live or Party Room, tap the gift icon, select a gift, confirm the recipient and quantity, and tap Send.

Where is the gift button on StarMaker?

It is usually located near the Live or room interaction controls. The exact position can vary by version, region and room type.

Can I send gifts in a StarMaker Party Room?

Yes, where the room supports gifts. Confirm the current microphone user or selected host before sending.

How do I choose which singer receives the gift?

Tap or select the intended participant, then confirm the name or avatar displayed in the gift panel.

Can I send a gift to the host?

Yes, if the interface allows you to select the room host as the recipient. Do not assume a room gift automatically goes to the host.

Can one gift support multiple singers?

Do not assume so. In a duet or group room, confirm the selected recipient and send separate gifts when necessary.

How many Coins do I need?

Check the gift’s current Coin cost and multiply it by the planned quantity.

Can I send gifts without Coins?

Paid virtual gifts generally require Coins. Likes, comments, follows and shares can provide free support.

Why is my StarMaker gift not showing?

Possible causes include network delay, room lag, an incorrect recipient or a processing delay. Check whether Coins were deducted before sending again.

Why were my Coins deducted twice?

The quantity may have been higher than one, repeat sending may have been active, or the Send button may have been tapped twice.

Can I cancel a gift after sending it?

Cancellation is unlikely after successful delivery. Contact StarMaker support immediately if a technical error occurred.

What happens if I send a gift to the wrong singer?

Contact StarMaker support with screenshots and transaction details, but recovery is not guaranteed.

Do StarMaker gifts increase ranking?

Only when the current room, PK or event rules say they do. Ordinary gift spending should not automatically be treated as ranking points.

Does the singer receive the full Coin value?

Not necessarily. Viewer Coins, virtual gifts, creator rewards and withdrawable income may use different systems.

Do I need my password to recharge Coins?

No. Topuplist’s SID recharge requires the numeric StarMaker SID and selected package, not your password or verification code.

Final Checklist

Before sending a StarMaker gift:

  1. Confirm the correct StarMaker account.

  2. Enter a supported Live or Party Room.

  3. Open the gift panel.

  4. Check the Coin cost.

  5. Confirm the singer, host or team.

  6. Review the quantity.

  7. Tap Send once.

  8. Wait for confirmation.

  9. Check the remaining balance.

  10. Save records when something looks wrong.

Final Verdict

Sending a StarMaker gift is simple when the recipient and quantity are clear.

The safest process is to:

  • Choose the gift before buying Coins

  • Confirm the correct singer or host

  • Wait for microphone changes to finish

  • Avoid repeat tapping during network lag

  • Check the balance after sending

  • Keep an order record when recharging

  • Treat successful virtual gifts as final

Users who do not want to spend Coins can still support singers through likes, comments, follows, shares and active participation.

When Coins are needed, use the correct SID and recharge only the amount you expect to spend.
