Allow lifetime subs to share months subscribed I am a Twitch Partnered streamer, I have 3 lifetime subs, they are 3 of the most important members of my community hence why I gave them these lifetime subs, I think it's really sad that each month they're not able to SHARE that subscription like a normal sub, they're super important members of my community, they deserve to get to share that message/sub like everyone else!!!

Better Transparency of 'Fees' in Affiliate/Partner Payouts Twitch advertises a 50/50 revenue split for affiliates and partners - however, this is becoming increasingly untrue. The affiliate agreement outlines that certain costs or taxes are deducted before creators receive payouts, however these 'fees' are becoming more aggregious, whilst remaining perpetually unclear.
At present, a US viewer gifting 5 subs costs the viewer $29.95. As a UK streamer, I receive $10 of this support. Instead of the 50% promised ($14.98), $4 of this disappears to "Fees". These fees are described as 'certain costs' and 'taxes', however these are never specifically outlined or clearly broken down for the creator.

Deactivate Founder's Badge Although I love the idea behind the founder's badge, it would be nice, if it would be possible to deactivate the founder's badge.
As a small streamer, you don't have hundreds of subcribers...You invest money for nice sub badges and then half of your subs have the founder's badge.
I'd rather have them have my sub badges in chat than the founder's badge to be honest.

More custom emotes at start without tiers There would be a lot more subs if every affiliate was able to create more than 3 custom channel emotes from the start. Also, the tier system to unlock them is counter productive. Nobody is going to subscribe more just so they can unlock one more emote. The entirety of the channels emotes should be accessible with just the first sub.

Incentivize Twitch Turbo Subs Give Twitch affiliates/partners some kind of affiliate link/incentive, and every Turbo sub that goes through us gets a percentage of the cost.
Lets get your platform more revenue and incentivize both creators for making more money, and you requiring less ads.

A 12 month subscription on top of the 1, 3 & 6 month sub options. Right now we have a choice of 1,3, and 6 month subscriptions i'm asking for a 12 month subscription as well.

Add a new lower tier sub option with ads ince the price of standard Twitch subs has increased, I think adding a lower tier ad-supported sub to give folks a cheaper option to support creators would be extremely helpful. Similar to how many TV and movie streaming services are adding ad-supported subscription tiers, I think Twitch could do this with subs to creators.
Instead of the standard $5.99 USD, this ad-supported sub-tier could be $2.99 USD, but because it's ad supported the revenue split could be more in favor of the creator. In terms of features these subs could:

Subscription Management We should be able to manage all of our subscriptions on all platforms. The website tells me to go to my mobile device to manage mobile subscriptions? What are you doing Twitch?

Ad-free viewing for mods Mods should be able to view the stream ad free without being subscribed in case the streamer needs to communicate to mods during the time an ad is run.

Twitch Turbo should offer a Prime Subscription. Add a Prime Subscription, or the same thing with a different name, to the Twitch Turbo subscription. That would make paying for Trubo a much more desirable path towards an ad-free viewing experience than it currently is.

Make sub anniversaries make sense I have a few issues with sub anniversaries:
(highest priority) When shared, sub anniversaries show up in chat & the activity list as a regular sub, even though the popup to share an anniversary vs subbing is different & they are obviously separate events, they just don't show as such. Confusing!
Because of the above, there is no real celebration of this person's anniversary i.e. initial sub date. Streamer isn't prompted to say 'yo congrats! you've been here so long!' or whatever. Why even have anniversaries at all?
If you DO want anniversaries to be special, make them? Like, make…

Sub Leaderboard I find it weird that we have a gift sub leaderboard at the top of the chat, but nothing for regular subs. I really want some recognition for my long-term supporters, nested into the regular UI so that I don't have to rely on extensions!
Simply sort by # of months subscribed total/in a row.

ppv events ie one time / one day custom priced subscriptions Would like the idea to host PPV events on stream.
This is a spin off of subscriber only streams, but let the user set the price of the PPV stream, whether its a special anniversary stream or a live event.
Pros: adds another line of revenue for streamers
Adds a different experience for creators and chat
Easily scalable
Scenarios: sub anniversary stream, concert, album launch, travel stream, birthday stream, digital event, podcast/video podcast, special guests appearance,8 votes -
founder My suggestion is to allow us to enter the username of the person we want to assign the Founder role to, instead of having to search for them manually. It can be frustrating to find the right person, and if I accidentally remove the Founder role from someone, there's currently no way to assign it back. This feature would make the process much easier and prevent irreversible mistakes.

Goal Tracking Needs a "Target Subs" The two options currently available suck for viewers (and thus creators) because "Total Subs" will go up/down as prior subs expire, which makes the community progress feel like suddenly going backwards. And "New Subs" doesn't allow someone to resub and actually contribute to the goal.
We need a combination of sorts, perhaps a "Target Subs" where it counts any new or resubs and only counts UP, without falling down when a prior sub expires.

Sort subscriptions list It would be immensely useful to be able to sort the "Subscriptions" page by various criteria (both forward and backward) based on:
- Alphabetical (!!)
- By tier
- By Sub expiration/renew date
- By length of time subbed
I can't even tell how this list is currently organized, and it's really frustrating (I subscribe to many channels, so it's hard to find anything)

Notify users two days before their subscription renews If twitch is going to take the time to store user emails and phone numbers it wouldn't hurt to send a text or email a day or two before they charge your account.

Give bots a non-paid sub role. A lot of Twitch streamers, affiliates and partners alike, use services like Nightbot and Streamelements for automated services. They are bots and do not contribute financially to Twitch on their own. Twitch bots also periodically use emotes in certain automated tasks, and require a sub for them to use these, among other things. It would be nice to be able to give known bots a non-paid sub, -OR-, allow bots to use channel emotes and other sub-related services permissible by Twitch.
Just an idea. I mod for several channels. Partner channels periodically use their non-paid permanent subs on bots specifically…

Subscription to Stream / Watch in High Quality If Twitch has troubles to be profitable, why not make a subscription to let Streamers make content in high quality (like 1080p 60fps 6000kbps~8000kbps or more) or Viewers watch high quality streams ?
And the free limit would stays around like 720p 60fps or 1080 30fps with 4000~5000kbps, for example.
On mobile in particular, I think its worth due to the screen size, the diff will not be that annoying, and in bonus it will be less energivorous.
In hope to see less "features" that beg money depending on the generosity of people, more revenues for streamers or even less…

Option for viewers to upgrade sub tier for a specific time period Allow viewers to upgrade to a tier 2 or tier 3 sub for a specified time. For example, upgrade to tier 3 for a single month to celebrate a special occasion, or just as extra thanks to a streamer, even if the viewer isn't able to sustain a more expensive subscription. Allowing a set time lowers the reluctance to try out higher tier subs for the fear of forgetting to lower the tier back again later.
