How Twitch Subscription Revenue Works
Twitch subscriptions are the primary source of recurring revenue for most streamers. When a viewer subscribes to your channel, Twitch splits the subscription fee with you. The split you receive depends on your partnership status and whether you qualify for Partner Plus.
Standard splits: Twitch Affiliates receive a 50/50 split, meaning you keep half of every subscription. Partners can unlock better rates through the Partner Plus program, earning up to 70% of subscription revenue.
Twitch Subscription Tiers Explained
Twitch offers three subscription tiers, each with different pricing and benefits:
- Tier 1$5.99/month (standard)
The most common tier. Includes ad-free viewing, custom emotes, sub badge, and chat perks.
- Tier 2$9.99/month (standard)
Includes all Tier 1 benefits plus additional emote slots and a unique sub badge.
- Tier 3$24.99/month (standard)
Premium tier with all benefits plus exclusive emotes and the most prestigious badge.
Twitch Partner Plus Program
Partner Plus is Twitch's incentive program that rewards high-performing Partners with better revenue splits. Here's how to qualify:
Level 1: 60/40 Split
Maintain 100+ paid subscribers for 2 consecutive months
Level 2: 70/30 Split
Maintain 350+ paid subscribers for 2 consecutive months
Important: Only paid subscriptions count toward Partner Plus thresholds. Gift subs, Prime subs, and promotional subscriptions don't count.
Understanding Twitch Regional Pricing
Twitch uses regional pricing to make subscriptions more affordable in different countries. While this increases accessibility for viewers worldwide, it also affects streamer revenue.
| Region | Tier 1 Price | Your Earnings (50%) |
|---|---|---|
| USA / Western EU | $5.99 | $2.99 |
| Poland / Brazil | ~$2.49 | ~$1.25 |
| Turkey / Argentina | ~$0.99 | ~$0.50 |
Use the custom price option in the calculator above to estimate earnings for your specific audience demographics.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a streamer make per Twitch sub?
Twitch Affiliates earn 50% of the subscription price ($2.99 for a $5.99 Tier 1 sub). Partners with Partner Plus can earn 60% or 70% depending on their tier. Regional pricing affects the base price, so earnings vary by subscriber location.
What is the difference between 50/50 and 70/30 split?
The 50/50 split is default for Affiliates (Twitch keeps 50%, you get 50%). The 70/30 split is available through Partner Plus Level 2 (you keep 70%, Twitch takes 30%). Level 1 offers 60/40.
How much is 100 subs on Twitch worth?
For 100 Tier 1 subs at $5.99 with 50/50 split, you earn $299.50. With 70/30 Partner Plus split, that's $399.30. Regional pricing can significantly reduce these amounts.
Do Prime subs pay the same as regular subs?
Yes, Prime subs pay streamers the same amount as Tier 1 subscriptions. Viewers with Amazon Prime can use their free monthly sub on any channel, and you receive the standard split.
