How can we improve the ad experience?

Ads: Ads For Bits

(thinking…)

Bits from ads for each country

In the US, you can get bits to create ads. I would like to see if it is possible in every country. Because of course, we get something from ads. Twitch is happy to see more ads. Viewers happy with bits. Streamers happy with the bits they get.

    I wish you could watch ads to support a streamer in exchange for bits. The option currently doesn't go and says to wait, but even waiting for months, it doesn't work. This feature is only available in the United States, I wish the rest of the world could use it too.

    Viewers from the USA can watch ads for bits. I live in Turkey and bits and subscriptions are extremely expensive here. I want to support my favorite streamers but, as you can see I cannot afford that. And I am a student, so this makes things harder. You should allow us to watch ads for bits, or you should change some prices. Small streamers can't earn money with these prices in Turkey. I bought Amazon Prime for 8 Turkish Liras. Twitch Tier 1 sub is 31 Turkish Liras. You can see the difference I think. This is not fair.

    it defenetly is fair for everyone if you would allow most of the world to watch ads, so they can earn a few bits for their favorite streamers, because bits are expensive to buy here!

    I haven't had a ad for bits over a year and a half. I haven't had any bits since the early part of the year 2019. I recently realized it was because I lived in a region where I can't have ads for bits. Thousands of others are having the same issue. I cannot afford to pay for bits. Please increase the regions! Thank you!

    This feature (watch an ad for 5 bits) should be available worldwide, especially on third-wolrd countries where most of the espectators are unable to purchase bits because they are out of their financial reach, but would like to support their favourite channels in some way, adn this would present an awesome opportunity to do so.

    I agree with this, I'd gladly watch ads for bits, since I cannot spend money anyway but would love to be able to support other channels. But even with this, I don't think the solution is to randomly ad adds to a stream. An add played randomly might happen in some important moment, so if you are going to show an add randomly, at least enable it so that the sound isn't muted?

    Be nice, the economic situation in these contries cant do for us buy Bits because banks arent able to do thats basics things like move money from Bank Account to Paypal or Internet.

    Bits in my opinion are a great way to support creators, but people like me who are only 13 years old and can't legally get a job, it's hard to support streamers and also I would never be able to buy bits in the first place. When I found out about watch ads for bits, I was so happy I could support my favorite streamer who inspired me. But when I tried to watch the ads it didn't let me. I did my research and found out that it was only for the U.S which I really don't understand why.

    It's been well over a year now since Bits were introduced to Twitch, and the ability to watch ads for Bits has only been available for US viewers only. I think it's about time the rest of the world can have this feature. Twitch is never short on ads, I always see an ad play everytime my favourite streamers go live. Ads for films, sports, video games, clothes, beverages, cars, the list goes on, and with Amazon being the proud parent of Twitch, having thousands of partnered companies, I find it hard to believe that they're unable to find partnering companies to create interactive ads for this feature. Especially considering that half of the products available in the US is also in UK and Europe (such as Coca Cola and Nissan) so reusing ads is always possible. I can't see why the east countries can't watch ads for Bits, and I think it's about time we get to help support our favourite streamers financially, without having to worry about spending money we might not have access to.
