  1. Create a methodology to remove lifetime subscriptions.

    In theory, a lifetime sub is self-explanatory, but in a practical sense, even the most sacred unions have a method to terminate the relationship. While a lifetime sub should not be taken lightly, over the course of years, things change and the user granted the lifetime sub may no longer frequent the channel or in rare cases, be banned from the channel. Given such situations, there should be a methodology in place to revoke a lifetime sub and after a moratorium, given to the channel owner to provide to someone else. During the…

  2. Rates should be based on where the streamer resides, not the viewer.

    Why should I gift any subs that cost me 6 dollars a piece, when someone can spend 2 dollars per gifted sub and overtake my position on the leaderboard at a gross discount.

    To subscribe to an American streamer, it should COST 6 bucks no matter where a viewer resides.

    Or get rid of the leaderboard, because you're not helping Americans who have a higher cost of living when Americans are being billed more to subscribe to anyone.

    I reached out to support and they sent me a…

  3. Allow creators the ability to prevent people from gifting subs anonymously (have it be a feature they can turn off and on). People will use anonymous gifted subs as a way to harass streamers (gifting subs to disparaging or downright harmful usernames). These usernames shouldn't be allowed on twitch as they contain violent language and hate speech to begin with.

  4. Turbo should also be unlocked through gifting subs and/or bits. This would incentivize people to gift to their favorite streamers, and reward members of the community that are generally more active in chats and streams.

    As soon as someone gifts 10 subs or 5000 bits, they should get turbo unlocked for 30 days. You can play with the numbers a bit, but that's obviously more revenue than a turbo subscription.

  5. Give randomly donated subscriptions to the top 50%+ active users of the channel or give donated subscriptions to the distribution of the streamer so that he can play them or give them to the most active. Because subscriptions go to people who came to the broadcast only once and were not subscribed to the channel, and people who come every day for a long time remain without subscriptions

  6. Like with Domain names, allow a user to sync all of their subscription through "extension" prorated into a single date that may be more convient for billing purposes.

  7. please, for the love of god allow those who want to turn off subs and bits to do so...
    i've seen a good number of forum posts from people who want this. i am included in that. all i want with affiliate is channel points, polls and emotes. twitch can take all the revenue from the minutes revenue.

  8. tl;dr - 12 month subscriptions are only offered to GIFTED subs and not manual (re)subscriptions. Please add an option to (re)subscribe ourselves for up to 12 months.

    Currently, Twitch offers the following subscription durations when subscribing to a channel: 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months. However, if you attempt to gift a channel you are offered a different set of durations: 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months.

    Is there a specific reason as to why the inconsistency exists between gifting a sub and subbing yourself? It would be great to have parity between the two methods…

  9. I believe that implementing the ability to gift Twitch Turbo to other users only provides benefits. Not only does it generate more money, it allows users to browse streamers ad-free leading Twitch enjoyers to find new upcoming streamers instead of only watching the streamers they're subbed to.

  10. Subscribe for the amount of time that you have been a follower, e.g. say you have been following someone for 62 months but couldn't afford to subscribe until recently, give us the option to subscribe for the past 62 months, get the sub-badge, and pay the streamer for the past 62 months that you have been a continuous follower. not sure how it would work if you had gift subs/twitch prime randomly throughout the time you followed them, maybe just ignore it and and make it a running total for the entire time.

  11. Many streamers use Twitch as a major way they supplement their income, or as their primary income, however if they can't stream due to being sick it directly cuts into their ability to support themselves and may be a driving reason for them to leave the platform for different services/jobs.

    I would like to suggest 5-10 days a year in which a streamer can toggle on and earn a higher cut from subs, or a %match of bits. This would require the streamer not to be streaming that day so they can recover.

    Part of this is driven by the…

  12. Streamers can set subscription price like Youtube.
    Twitch Partners have so much emotes with Tier1 Subscribe, but new affiliate streamers have so less emotes. And it is very very STRANGE that the price is SAME!
    In Japan, The price was increased and some streamers say if we can set subscription price like Youtube, even if we get lower rewards. And also many Japanese feel the price is very expensive even Tier1, 700 JPY.
    My friend of youtuber sets prices only 90 JPY. In generally, streamers set price about 500 JPY in Youtube.
    so Why don'y you let us set subscribe…

  13. Move the prime sub to turbo. I think that's what turbo need, ad free and a monthly subscription.

  14. I often get emails that a subscription has lapsed but it doesn't tell me who it is, rendering the email completely useless. Pushing me into my subscription management page, which is ten years outdated, causing a bad UX to find more information about who the email is regarding.

  16. why can you no longer buy subs in Germany via SOFORT Banktransfer-/Sofortüberweisung-/ Grio Pay ? Klarna is so complicated to set up. Many Subs will be lost.

  17. "During SUBtember, the deeper discounts of 30% off 6-month and 25% off 3-month apply to the first term only. You’ll receive the regular 10% or 15% discount on subsequent renewals."

    If this is true then why is my renewal price £29.94? Why are your support staff eagerly defending this and referring me to your FAQ for more details that says otherwise?

    What the FAQ describes is how the system has worked in previous years, and its how it works any other time of the year yet for some reason this year I'm going up to 100% billing price on my…

  18. Allow the gifting of TURBO months to other viewers on Twitch!! The streamers are going to bat pushing TURBO, now allow our supporters to Gift months of Turbo to people that can not afford even a monthly Sub much less TURBO.

  19. I feel like Turbo subscriptions would benefit from Emotes that can be used in discord as well, i like watching streamers without seeing any ads, but i dont want to pay for both if i want to use their discord emotes as well.

  20. Re subscribing, cheering with bits, hype chats, donations. What do they all have in common? You can attach a message with them. Either it be wanting to express love for the streamer, announce something or just throw in a meme. With how much of the economy gifted subs has become for large parts of Twitch, I think its in due time it gets the recognition it deserves.

    Let people attach a message in chat with their gift, the same way you do as when you resub. This also allows for it to be read by TTS (Text To Speech) so…
