Twitch finally gives streamers 70/30 sub split with new Partner Plus, but there’s a catch

Twitch has finally revealed a way for streamers to get a 70/30 sub-revenue split with their new Partner Plus program, but there’s a catch.

Back in September 2022, Twitch said that it would not be able to offer its streamers the sought-after 70/30 sub-revenue split due to the “high cost” of running the site.

Streamers revolted, with some moving over to Kick or YouTube to take advantage of the increased split on subscriptions – set at as much as 95% on Kick.

Twitch has revealed the new Partner Plus program to give streamers a 70/30 sub-revenue split, but it’s not exactly quite that simple.

How to get 70/30 sub split on Twitch

Announced in a blog post on June 15, Twitch’s new Partner Plus program is set to launch on October 1, 2023. Those who qualify for the program will receive the sought-after 70/30 revenue split.

However, there is a catch to the program with a major caveat being that it’s only going to be paid out until you reach $100k in revenue.

Twitch explains: “Partners must maintain a sub count of at least 350 recurring paid subscriptions for three consecutive months.

“Once that happens, Partners will be automatically enrolled for the next 12 months, even if you dip below the subscription threshold during the 12-month period.”

With its launch in October, Twitch will evaluate your account over the three months prior (July, August, and September) and enroll existing Partner accounts into the Partner Plus program.

Once you qualify for the Partner Plus program, Twitch automatically enrolls you for 12 months. While they will not remove you within that timeframe if your sub count drops below 350, Partners must qualify during the last three months of being a part of the program.
