  4. I would like to propose the addition of a new type of redeem that I think would greatly improve the user-experience on Twitch. This new redeem type will be a dropdown that offers the viewers with a selection of pre-defined choices to pick from.

    CURRENTLY
    As of now, streamers can create custom redeems: - basic standard redeem, with just a single button for confirmation - text-based redeem, that requires the viewer to input text before sending.

    BENEFITS AND EXAMPLES
    The inclusion of the new dropdown-redeem would bring several advantages to both streamers and viewers:
    - Streamlining: Streamers with many sounds…

  5. Hi, some of my viewers haven't been able to scroll through my rewards list for about 2 or 3 weeks. They tried to clear the cache and use different browsers but it changed nothing.

    Is that issue known?

    Regards.

    Please let them undo or view history to refund viewers the points.

  7. For the last day or so, I haven't been able to earn any channel points, even though I'm watching just 2 streams. This first began last night (Oct. 19, 2023), when I showed up to a stream, earned 450 bonus points for watching enough successive streams, earned more points over few minutes, then after a while, I noticed my total points wasn't going up. Is this a bug? In one channel I need to earn enough points every 3 months to remain a VIP. Can anybody help?

  10. I have had complaints from multiple chat users today that their channel points were not collecting. On further investigation myself I have concluded that Twitch have AGAIN changed their policy on how many channels views/channel points count for and have now reduced it to a maximum of TWO CHANNELS?!

    This is RIDICULOUS!? It impacts viewers negatively as many channels they watch will offer giveaways/rewards/etc. for channel points which they like to collect. In addition it impacts streamers negatively as it significantly lowers their average viewership.

    This is a LOSE LOSE situation for viewers and streamers alike. Please, with URGENCY, restore…

  11. Discord has ephemeral messages for specific actions that only the person doing that action can see.

    Having a similar system for users redeeming rewards would prevent the chat from spamming with the rewards where no one can now chat, but would also allow viewers to notice that rewards have been redeemed.

    Additionally, these messages could also be sent back to a user when a channel point reward is marked as unfulfilled. This would allow services using the API to send a message along when they are unable to fulfill the reward.

    An example of a rejection message with Crowd Control…

  12. A few years ago, you launched the "Boost this Stream" feature. Thanks to channel points, viewers were supposedly able to boost the current stream so it could be seen in the Twitch main suggestions feed.

    However, I never saw this feature appear whatever the channel size I watched the stream. It's a pity because this feature sounds great. Not only it would make the channel points very useful but it also would help the little channels to get visibility efficiently. Of course, in order to make it fair you would have to adapt the required amounts of points in terms…

  13. It is not that big of a change but it still bugs me. This will more likely be a quality of life kind of change.i always saw channel points in K(like 15K points) but after I have changed my mobile, could be cuz I am Indian and we use thousands to count but it changed to T(15T). I just liked the good ol K and I did not find any way to revert it or change it. Would be nice if you have a standard of representation,or if that is not possible, give us a feature to change how to…

  14. It would be great to have Channel Reward Variants that a viewer can pick from after selecting a reward. I have things like different camera filters and background images that viewers can change. Point Rewards like this require user input to communicate to the streamer (or integrated software) which choice the viewer would like. However, a typo can break integrated/automated features and abusing the user input wastes the reward and can lead to awkward situations. Setting up "selections" of variants to choose from after selecting a reward could allow for limited user input which can lead to flawless execution of…

  15. Hello Twitch Support Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. I'm a dedicated Twitch viewer and I wanted to express my enthusiasm for the platform. I have been enjoying the interactive elements like channel points, which add a lot of fun and engagement to the viewing experience.

    I wanted to suggest a feature that I believe would enhance the community aspect even further. It would be fantastic if there was a way for viewers to see an approximate count of channel points that others have. This feature could encourage healthy competition, collaboration, and engagement among viewers.

    Having the ability…

  16. Implementing a reward system based on watchtime using channel points could be a great idea to incentivize viewers to spend more time on your channel so that they can get the channel point rewards a bit faster.

    Let me elaborate:

    Watchtime-based Reward Tiers:

    Create a reward system where viewers earn channel points based on their total watchtime of the streamer. For example:

    1 hour watched in total = 50 channel points
    5 hours watched it total = 250 channel points
    10 hours watched in total = 500 channel points
    25 hours watched in total = 1,500 channel points
    50 hours…

  17. You can specify how much the viewer will receive, not a fixed amount after a certain amount of time has passed.

    Please clarify what you mean by "how much a viewer will receive" - what is the context? Thank you.

  18. Please for the love of god, I'm sitting here refreshing the channel points trying to redeem the first reward and it just constantly says out of stock for a good 20 seconds until someone else claims it. Either fix it or fire the programmer who made it suck in the first place, PLEASE.

  19. I encountered the following scenario: There is a redeem with text input that any user can redeem once per stream and in total can be redeemed four times with a cooldown of 30 minutes.

    When me and another user tried to redeem it at the same time, neither one went through or deducted channel points. However, the system told both of us that we had reached the maximum number of redeems.

    After this, a different user was still able to redeem it, as neither of ours went through to trigger the cooldown. Since our failed redeems had no effects on…

  20. I think a setting to remove channel points functionality for yourself as a viewer (either globally or, even better, on a per channel basis as well), including predictions. This would be intended as an accessibility feature for people who struggle with psychological problems such as addiction to gambling.
