Channel points for ALL streams

So, I was an affiliate and decided to leave the program and really miss the interactive channel point system. It would be LOVELY if you all would give channel points to ALL streamers because it just makes sense. Channel points are a great way to have interactivity with your community and it SUCKS that I, a non-affiliate or partner streamer, can't use the feature. I may be in the minority of this though. My question is though, why is it only for affiliates and partners anyways? It's not like you make money off the channel points anyways, so it really just makes more sense for everyone to have access to them.

    I am currently going for affiliate but I have said the only reason why I am going for it besides FINNALY reaching 50... But All I want is the channel points, I don't care about subs its an added feature, I don't care about Bits its an added feature to the Affiliate status. Mainly I just want to create fun Channel Points. But its stuck behind a wall and guess what it would help the smaller streamers get noticed because they can create loyalty points in a way and viewers can have fun instead of being attracted to larger streamers. BTW Twitch... when I went to my viewer count it said 1... but my friend was watching... so It should have said at least 2 since you count the streamer and even if you didn't my family at home was watching. So thanks... BUT UNLOCK THIS FOR EVERYONE. You guys say make my channel interesting and fun but you lock this feature away. BTW I have about made my channel as fun as possible with STREAMLOOTS but that can only go so far because you know that's locked behind a pay wall for viewers.

    I want to have channel points for my stream. I think it's a really fun way of allowing viewers to connect with the streamer. But I will never even consider getting Affiliate. I don't want to have to choose between running ads or getting people to find me, because we all know that if we click onto a stream that we're unfamiliar with and it runs an ad, you click off immediately. I want my viewers to be able to interact in more ways than just through chat. There's no reason that Twitch should gatekeep channel points just because we want to have the freedom to do our own thing. Twitch says they encourage creativity, but they take away the tools we need unless we generate money for them.

    I realy like to collect channle points in streams to get vip and that kinda stuff. the only problem is that i want to have channle points myself but i dont want to have to fill in the application for affiliat bc of private inf and stuff and i know that its safe its just that i and many other streamers is not 18 or dont live alone taking their own desisions and that might mean that parent(s) will not aprove giving out this info and then the streamer cant get channle points. so please make a achievement that only gives channle points so we dont have to fill out a application.

    so i been affiliate since 29th august and still don't have the option to give my viewers channelpoints! Plz fix this!

    Why even have this now , when not everyone can use there points . Go back and redesign it and when its avalible for everyone then come back so we can make predictions and USE out points where ever you are in the world.
    And plz make it so you can turn the it off so you not get the pop up.

    -1 for this. If you were Affiliate and now not, means you do multi streaming or do you want to stream on other platforms...or something like this.

    So as others already commented before, you may use a bot like (Streamelements or Streamlabs) and do points and rewards stuff for free.

    If you want to have Emojis and all the new features, come back to the family :)

    @Lajistiic : To transfer channel points from one channel to an another is I think a bad idea (and even this is a very different topic).

    If you transfer your 150k to my channel, and watch the stream for 5 minutes, you could buy a VIP badge on my channel for example for 100k. Sorry, but you are not a VIP in my eye, because you did not watched my stream for 500 hours, rather than maybe a hot tube streamer who is not me :)
