Twitch is introducing a new “Partner Plus” program that will give streamers an increased 70 percent of the share of their subscription revenues — up to the first $100,000 brought in each year — with Twitch taking the other 30 percent.
Most partnered streamers receive 50 percent of their subscription revenues, though Twitch had negotiated 70 / 30 deals with some of the platform’s biggest streamers until last fall when it announced that those deals would eventually get this same $100,000 cut-off. The new program doesn’t seem to change those “premium subscription terms,” but it could give many more streamers access to the higher split
Basically they need to hit 350 subs per month for 3 months to hit Partner Plus, and then they get that 70/30 split for 12 months or $100K, whichever happens first, regardless of sub numbers.
I’m curious what happens after 100K. I imagine they’ll have a separate contract with private terms after that. It would seem shitty to drop back down to 50/50 when you start bringing in more money.
