  1. It would be more useful if the channel point redemption could be limited to "moderators" and "VIP" and "subscribers".

    チャンネルポイント交換を「モデレーター」「VIP」「サブスクライバー」に限定できればもっと便利だと思います。

  2. I was wondering if it would be possible to create a system where point redemptions scale as they are redeemed. For example, some streamers have a Push-up redemption for say 1000 points. The next tier or redemption of that point redeem would cost a set markup that the streamer sets. If say the streamer marks it up by 50% the next redemption would cost 1500 points instead of 1000. I think this idea would curb trolls, make redemptions more meaningful and help streamers like myself come up with unique ideas.

  4. Our most common support request is about broken Channel Points.

    The problem happens when custom Channel Point names are changed.

    This is annoying because now streamers can't change the name to their local language or other personal preferences.

    If CP's receive a unique id, our Twitch extensions can communicate with that and this would provide streamers with more customisation options.

  5. There are a few great cooldown options for Channel Points redemptions, however I think it'd be fantastic if we could possibly have an option for an "Only available after stream has been online for X minutes/hours" as a possible cooldown option too.

    As an example I have a limited redemption to give my Doggo a treat, but if this gets redeemed right at the very VERY start of the stream, people that don't arrive at the very start miss out - and if I say 'thanks for the redemption, I'll do that later' it kinda feels rude to the redeemer,…

  6. Channel Point icons and reward icons currently make you upload 3 different versions of the same icon, like we used to have to do with emotes. Now we are able to upload a single image and have it auto-scaled to the proper size. Since this is clearly possible to implement, I don't understand why we still have to upload our channel point icons and reward icons 3 times.

  7. Add a role for twitch viewers in which they essentially manage predictions. It would be identical to how moderators can currently manage predictions, however, these users would not have the other permissions of moderator (timing out / banning / slow mode etc.)

  8. I am not sure, but I think if somebody clicks on a channel reward, the biggest, 112px image should be used, but I think, only the 56px is used. Can you please fix this?

  9. So I'm no expert in this sort of thing, so don't crucify me if there's any big problems with the idea but.

    Would there be any scope in making channel points more valuable, so that you could spend them on actual things - perhaps even a twitch browser shop where you could buy various cosmetics to enhance your name or badges, emotes too, or directly support your favourite streamers by buying products they offer with channel points too.

    I see this as having benefits for all parties, that's streamers, twitch and viewers too.

    Streamers would have more concurrent viewers because…

  10. A streamer I follow has this thing he does rarely where we establish "teams" behind different characters to show our support for them. Normally he has us change our user names to specific colors in order to show support, but a lot of the viewers dont like having to reset their color later so they dont participate.

    Is there any way we could have a badge after the name, or if not possible than replacing a badge like the cheer badge, with some basic color badges, even if just circles or squares? I am thinking just a simple symbol like…

  11. I'd like to see an option for streamers to make trivia questions for their chat. Chat can click an answer, and the people who guessed it right can get an amount of channel points that the streamer decides.

  14. Being able to set a in and max amount of points to bet. There are times I would not want viewers to bet a large amount of channel points on a question due to it's "ease to answer"

  16. This would make it much easier for channels to make use of channel points in more creative ways, currently most streamers are using a chat bot for points, and then channel points are almost useless

  17. I oftentimes prefer it to keep the chat box hidden because it distracts me from the stream. But I also like to collect the channel bonus points and don't want to open the chat box all the time only to collect bonus points. Wouldn't it be possible to make the box visible/clickable even when the chat box is hidden?

  18. Summary

    Please provide an officially supported API or EventSub mechanism to retrieve per-viewer Channel Points earning history, including timestamps, point amounts, and earning sources.

    Background

    I am exploring a community progression system for my Twitch channel. The goal is to recognize viewers' long-term participation and accumulated time spent with the channel, while minimizing additional actions required from viewers.

    Twitch Channel Points are potentially useful for this purpose because viewers can earn points through watching a channel. However, I could not find an official API that allows broadcasters or authorized applications to retrieve each viewer's points earned through viewing over a…

  19. I've developed an idea that could help smaller streamers in particular increase their viewership, and I'd like to share it with you.
    I propose a points system that rewards viewers for actively following streams from smaller streamers with only 1 or 2 viewers. Viewers could earn points by, for example, watching a streamer for at least 10 minutes or actively participating in the chat. This system would be an optional feature available only to those interested in increasing their visibility. If you don't want to collect points, you can easily exclude this.
    The goal of this system is to create…

  20. MAKE THE DANG THING BIGGER! Better yet, make this feature a window instead of a popup that's so small that only 3 icons of the 20+ redeems people have on streams. It's impossible to look thru, especially with terrible eye sight on massive displays.
