  1. Hello,
    Here is one of my suggestions for channel points. In the " Community " tab in the Creator Dashboard then in " Channel Points ", add a board where you can see the ranking of people with the most channel points. We as a streamer can manage users as reset, add or remove channel points. We could also set up an extension below the stream to put the channel point ranking in public.

    Thank you for taking the time to read,

  2. With the latest feature where three new redeems are added that costs bits instead of points, it did give me an idea:

    Let us set the price of all redeems in points and/or bits. You have to set the price in one or the other, and if you leave a field blank (or at 0) you can't pay in that currency.

    When choosing a redeem, there can be two buttons, one for points and one for bits. Always display both, left for bits, right for points, regardless if it's available, so the buttons are always in the same location.

    One…

  3. Right now, there are only badges and additional channel point accumulations to incentivize Tier 2 and 3 subs, plus whatever the streamer builds in as rewards, but I would love to add a third benefit to this list, that would also help streamers. Having the ability to assign different channel point redeems to different sub tiers would be a great tool to be able to take a system that is already well known, and add to it, without having to find 3rd party outlets to incorporate. I've searched around and have yet to see anyone talking about something like this,…

  4. Voy a explicarlo en español y luego intentaré traducirlo al inglés, para que de este modo la gente pueda entender correctamente cuál es mi sugerencia y creo que es más que necesaria que esté implantada en twitch.

    Comenzaré con un ejemplo:
    Streamer está haciendo directo y uno de sus moderadores canjea puntos que le obligan a hacer gimnasia.
    Le envía 10 veces lo de hacer gimnasia y el streamer se ve obligado a hacerlo puesto que el usuario ha gastado puntos.

    Termina el directo y el streamer en los minutos después de finalizar el directo, va a la lista de…

  5. It would be great, for special redeems that are rarely bought because of their expensive price for example, to have the option to "annouce" the redeem in chat so they stand out
    For example you could have redeems such as "end stream" for 500k points be announced so everyone notices it immediately

    This option would be chosen by the broadcaster in the channel point settings

    here's a proof of concept as to how it could look (comparing a normal redeem to an annouced redeem) : https://i.imgur.com/h8XMf0c.png

  6. Currently, phone verification would restrict unverified users from chatting in streams where that moderation feature is enabled.

    However, channel points rewards, especially ones that ask the viewer for a prompt (e.g. Ask a Question reward) can still be redeemed no matter if the user is verified or not.

    Therefore, a feature should be added when phone / email verification is enabled, where viewers who are not verified are no longer able to redeem any of the channel points rewards the streamer would offer (but may still get channel points if they continue to watch the stream).

    Additionally, this feature SHOULD…

  7. I have a suggestion on how to Making the Most of Channel Points. Example Viewers buy League Of Legends Skin Shard with 50k points which you have eearned watching/betting with the viewers
    I think this will be a positive impact on every party:
    -Streamer tools more Viewers/watch time.
    -Viewers get in games loot.
    -games devs/streamer relations.
    -twitch will have a way to retake those points back.

  8. A System where you can
    - see who has which number of channel points
    - give / remove a certain number of channel points of a certain user / user group

    The nice thing is that you can make giveaways of channel points or can put them as a prize for tournaments, esspecially if you don't have money to do otherwise.

  9. It would be great to have a channel point redemption that allows you to mimic the roll of a die (aka: a random number generator; d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20, d100, etc). As a channel point reward this could then be limited to once a day, once every X minutes, etc.

    This could be used just like a "spin the wheel" feature, where someone redeems it to make a decision for the streamer to act on.

    "What are we doing today?" random number between 1-100 "Ok, looks like we're doing XYZ" (discussing a certain topic, drawing a picture, 100…

  10. I am creating a game for an affiliate broadcaster that allows channel point redemptions to trigger in game events. It's working exactly as intended except for one small problem. Every redemption is listed the chat a it's drowning out chat's ability to communicate with each other. There should be a way to not display activity feed in chat

  11. I run a custom interactive overlay that lets users spend points for in-game effects. Right now they can save up points from multiple streams and spend them all at once to get a big advantage. I'd love a setting that makes it more expensive for a user to redeem a channel point reward for each time they've done it during that stream — it'd encourage them to spread out their spending a little.

    For example, I could set the initial cost of a reward to 200, and the increment to 50. The first time in a stream that a user…

  12. Channel Points messages appear in chat, but don't show up in VODs, and aren't available in the Chat API. It would be good to at least have the messages appear in VODs to help provide context for what's happening, and even better if it was treated as another chat message, so it could show up in the chat API as well.

  13. Some streamers really enjoy the Gigantify Emote feature for bits, some don't. I have heard from some streamers and myself that we want to have a feature for some of these power-ups to be as channel points too.

  14. Please make it so different channel point redemptions can share the same cooldown.

    For example, let's say I have 3 channel point redemptions to unleash varying types of **** in my co-op game. I want it so that if viewers Unleash **** A, then Unleash **** A, B, and C all start a 10 minute cooldown because they are grouped.

    However, today we can't. Viewers can redeem Unleash **** A, B, and C all at the same time, which becomes easily overwhelming for the co-op players. I want to be able to offer variety to the viewers, but not at…

  15. A chat message on Twitch is limited to 500 characters. This same limitation is applied to redeems that requires the user to input text.

    Let the streamer be allowed to choose a custom max limit on a reedem like this, which is useful for when you redeem a phrase to be read by the streamer. When a limit like this is set, a character counter can be displayed when typing.

    Like for polls, there could possibly also be an option to be allowed to "purchase" additional blocks for points (done automatically). For example, say a phrase redeem costs 500 points,…

  16. Please fix or add as a Feature for Console Streamers to be able to view redeemed Channel Points, since so far this can only be reviewed via PC.

    We need a way to see when they have been redeemed, also on phone.

  17. Please add a user channel point cool down for ALL redeems. There's an issue with people coming into chat and one user redeeming every redemption at once. Say user 1 redeems, they now have to wait x amount of time before redeeming while user 2 can still redeem if they haven't in the set cooldown time.

    Adding a universal cooldown for all redemptions for users will help limit this spam.

  18. Simple: add a timer for redemption on the channel point redemption list list as well, so we don't have to click one and "oops! It's on cooldown! better go back to pick another".

    Additionally, show what will be the cooldown time on the redemption itself BEFORE they redeem and make it optional to hide the timer and cooldown, for streamers who wants people to "run to redeem it first".

    Additionally, correct this flaw: redemptions that have a text box input DO NOT SHOW A TIMER. So if someone set the timer to a long time, there's no knowing when the…

  20. It would be very useful to get for moderators to be able to accept/deny channel points redeems directly from chat without having to open the request queue or modview. Like a small button saying ACCEPT and DENY just below the redeem.

    For moderators who work with a lot of requests every hour this would mean managing the redeems a lot faster and easier.
