The earnings report shows that Kuaishou’s main income sources in 2021 include online marketing, livestreaming and other services. Revenues growth in 2021 was mainly driven by revenues from online marketing service and other services (including e-commerce).

Revenues from online marketing service grew by 95.2% from 21.9 billion yuan to 42.7 billion yuan in 2021. The revenues growth was mainly attributed to user growth and advertisement client growth.

Revenues from Kuaishou’s other businesses grew by 99.9% year-on-year to 7.4 billion yuan, which was driven by improvements on content, service, technology and user experience. Revenues from livestreaming slumped year-on-year by 6.7% to 31 billion yuan in 2021.
