Ten impressive acts competed for $1 million on “America’s Got Talent” last week. This week, host Terry Crews will recap them before announcing the winner.

But how much exactly does the AGT winner earn? Well, it depends. The winner of the NBC competition series is entitled to a massive $1,000,000, but they don’t receive the prize money all at once.

America’s Got Talent winners get $1 million - but if they’re to receive their prize money in full, they have to be patient. They’re paid the figure in annual pre-tax instalments that are understood to be $25,000 each.
