According to the outlet, the Anti-Hero artist also gave bonuses to members of her band, her dancers, caterers, technicians, and more. The exact amount of these bonuses has not been revealed, but the source said it was a "very generous amount."

In addition to the generous contributions to her team, Swift has been giving back to the local communities at each stop on the sold-out stadium tour.

Beginning with Glendale, Arizona, she has donated to local food banks ahead of her shows in each city.

On track to gross over $1 billion, The Eras Tour has been credited for boosting both the local economies of the tour stops and the US economy as a whole.
