smile.amazon.com allows amazon users to select a charity organization from a massive database and 0.5% of purchases will be given to that charity.

It would be fantastic if users on Twitch could select a charity from the existing Amazon Smile database on their Twitch profile settings, where an amount is taken from the Twitch portion of every sub purchase or bit purchase. The broadcaster receives the same amount, but a small percentage is donated from the bit fee or Twitch portion of sub revenue. Users making this choice could receive a special chat badge indicating they support a charity!

In addition to this, a separate tool for broadcasters to enable a similar option on their channel (if desired) where a portion of their sub and ad revenue go towards a charity of their choosing. Amazon Smile has a massive database of charities, and it would be excellent to provide partners access to this database to expand the charities available for integrated support.

Every subscriber is supporting both Twitch and the partnered streamer of their liking. Subscribers get things like emotes and badges, but what if they get even more?

If you subscribe to a streamer, you get 1 point for example. It doesn't matter which partnered streamer. If you resub, you get points depending on the amount of months you resubbed: resubbed for the 10th month in a row to a streamer, you get 10 points instead of 1.

You can spend these subscriber points at the subscriber store to buy exclusive emotes or badges they can permanently unlock. They can also save up points to get bits or a free month subscription to a streamer of their liking.

This way, they don't only get rewarded for supporting their streamer, but they also get rewarded by twitch no matter where they sub. It would want viewers to sub more likely and to definitely resub, since they get more points if they resub instead of sub! It's like a 'welcome back!' guarantee.

Let me know what you guys think!

Right now, the Path to Partner achievements depend on the number of average concurrent viewers (>75). Some channels have a smaller community but a large amount of monetary support benefiting Twitch. The Path to Partner achievements should be modified to support the high-quality channels that are attracting paying subscribers to Twitch but which might have smaller active viewing communities.

For example, it might be reasonable for partner status to unlock either at:

75 viewers and 0 subscriber points
50 viewers and 25 subscriber points maintained for 3 months
25 viewers and 50 subscriber points maintained for 6 months

Rather than keeping average viewers as the sole gold standard, which is easier to fake or briefly profit from with a surge of one-time viewership.

Have Twitch Partners be able to officially partner with each other and create a set of emotes that viewers can only access if they sub to both channels. Each Partner still has their normal emote set of course, but if you sub to both channel A and channel B you also get a few "AB" exclusive emotes. Unsubbing from either loses you access to the dual sub emotes.

Many pairs of Partners already have emotes of their own that combo well with each other, purposely. For example, two Partners have "wave" emotes that face each other to look like a high five, etc.

This will encourage collaboration more and can be extended to Twitch Teams as well (Sub to every Partner on the team and get team-specific emotes). Don't limit each Partner to just one "sub partner" either, let the community control who partners with who. I believe this will drive a higher sub count overall and help discoverability for friends on a higher level than just raids and shoutouts.

If I sub to a user with a 6 month 4.99 sub and then during my third month decide that I want to upgrade my sub to 9.99 I think Twitch should charge me the difference of time remaining and then once my sub renews at the end of the initial 6 months, it would charge me for my plan at the new price.

In the case above, I have 3 months left unused in my sub. So for today, to upgrade my sub, I pay $15 to be brought up to the 9.99 tier for the next three months. Twitch and the streamer can split the difference depending on their arrangement. Then when that sub ends, I'd be charged the full price of a 6-month 9.99 sub when I renew.

As it is now, if I buy a bulk sub, I'm locked in at that level unless I want to lose my investment in that sub to upgrade. So, for anyone buying a 6 month sub, you are actually disincentivized to upgrade your sub.

As an introverted person, I'd very much appreciate the option of subscribing "quietly". So if I check a box, twitch alerts for this particular sub (including chat announcement) don't trigger, but I get to continue supporting my favorite streamers. Users would still have the option of using the "regular" sub alert (probably by default), for example for x-yr anniversaries, congratulatory PB/WR subs, etc, etc. Basically, sometimes you feel like being social, and sometimes you don't. Having lots of fanfare for subbing is not something everyone wants.

Indeed subscribing when a streamer is not streaming is an option, but the idea is to lower the barrier for supporting streamers via subs, and I imagine there's a large percentage of twitch's viewership that is introverted and/or has social anxiety and would appreciate this feature. This doesn't discourage engagement because the target audience for this feature is probably already lurking! Streamers and twitch will benefit from the greater number of subscribers. Win-win all around.

Every time you want to subscribe or buy bits you must make a payment. It can also be a lot more convenient. A Twitch wallet is the solution for that. What is Twitch wallet? A Twitch wallet is your twitch credit. You can add money. So you add 20 euros to your Twitch Wallet. Then you can give subben to someone without paying a payment. Where can you see twitch wallet credit? You could see twitch wallet credit for example at your inventory. I would like to hear if you find a nice idea and would like to receive feedback as well.
