Twitch is reportedly weighing major changes to its creator monetization—and streamers on the whole are not happy. According to a report from Bloomberg, the Amazon-owned platform is looking to profit more from Partner streamers’ channel subscriptions. Right now, viewers can subscribe to a creator’s channel for between $5 and $25 per month. Partners, in general, get 70% of that price, and Twitch takes 30%. (We say “in general” because Partners have individual contracts with Twitch, and the details of those contracts aren’t made public, so it’s possible some are making more or less than 70% of channel sub revenue.)Subscribe for daily Tubefilter Top StoriesSubscribe Twitch is considering upping its own cut to 50%, people familiar with the matter told Bloomberg. That would bring Partner streamers down to the 50/50 split Twitch currently has with Affiliate streamers. (You can read about the differences between Partners and Affiliates here.) But that change isn’t set in stone. Twitch is also considering another option: a tier-based system, where some Partners would continue making 70% from channel subs while some would make the new, lower 50%. That system apparently might involve an incentive where Partners who are willing to fork over 50% of their channel…

Twitch, the popular streaming platform currently owned by Amazon, maybe considering some changes to its payment model that are troubling to content creators.A new report by Bloomberg's Cecilia D'Anastasio suggests Twitch is reconsidering how it will go about splitting revenue with its top earners. These changes include further ad incentives and a reduction of the subscription payout, costing top streamers a 20% decrease in earnings from 70% to 50%. In exchange, however, Twitch may be planning to release those streamers from their exclusivity contracts to allow them to make up the lost revenue.This, unsurprisingly, has upset several streamers, who "have said ads can alienate the audience and hurt their metrics," according to D'Anastasio. Changes could go into effect as early as this summer though this has yet to be confirmed.Bloomberg: Twitch is considering changes to its partner programCurrently discussed ideas (not finalized):- incentives for more ads- new rev split (70% -> 50%)- new tiers system- no more exclusivity- changes could be implemented this summerMore:https://t.co/3YLvs7DlKT pic.twitter.com/o9Q1sRvg5M— Nibel (@Nibellion) April 27, 2022"Twitch leadership has discussed possible changes to its 10-year-old partner program for several years.

It’s a bold move Twitch, let’s see if it pays off.Screenshot: TikTok / bradeazy / KotakuTwitch is reportedly considering major changes to the monetization practices that streamers are upset about because the potentially lopsided percentages work out to pad Twitch’s bottom line.According to a Bloomberg report, Amazon, Twitch’s parent company, is considering multiple changes to its partner program in order to boost its profits. These changes include a new revenue split from subscriptions, a new tier system, and bolstering advertisements.One of the monetization changes under consideration is a revenue cut from subscriptions for partnered streamers, Twitch’s most popular streamers. The proposed cut would decrease the revenue partnered streamers make from subscriptions from 70% to 50%. Another proposal Twitch is considering is adding a tiers system for partnered streamers. According to Bloomberg, these tiers detail the criteria a streamer must meet to receive 50% or 70% of revenue from their subscription. In exchange to this proposal, anonymous sources told Bloomberg that Twitch might release streamers from their exclusivity in their contracts, which will allow them to stream on Twitch’s competitor sites like YouTube and Facebook Gaming potentially to recoup any cut revenue. Twitch is also reportedly considering incentives for more advertising…

The new Twitch subscription revenue cut is now being considered. Once this change is implemented, then the top creators on the streaming platform will have a hard time generating earnings.  (Photo : Photo by LIONEL BONAVENTURE/AFP via Getty Images)A gamepad is pictured as a screen displays the online Twitch plateform in Toulouse, southwestern France, on June 15, 2021. (Photo by Lionel BONAVENTURE / AFP) Twitch explained that the upcoming monetization changes would allow it to boost its profits. However, some experts claimed that the revenue cut would definitely lead to some negative effects on the platform.  Both viewers and streamers will experience the effects of the earning deduction once it is implemented, which is expected to happen around the summer this 2022.  Twitch Subscription Revenue Cut a Bad News?  According to GameSpot's latest report, Twitch is looking for financial stability in its streaming platform. The revenue reduction plan will range between $5 to $25.  (Photo : Photo credit should read MARTIN BUREAU/AFP via Getty Images)This illustration picture taken on July 24, 2019 in Paris shows the US live streaming video platform Twitch logo application on the screen of a tablet.

Chi è lo streamer più grande e seguito su Twitch? Quello che riesce a fare i numeri migliori? La risposta non sorprenderà chi conosce la scena degli streamer che parlano spagnolo: Auronplay. Quindi non Ninja o xQc? Cerchiamo di capire.Ninja rimane lo streamer Twitch con il maggior numero di seguaci: 17 milioni, ma il dato in sé significa poco, a meno che non lo si rapporti alla crescita mensile degli stessi. Blevin ha raggiunto il suo picco massimo di popolarità nel 2018, per poi rallentare, complice anche la sortita fallimentare su Mixer, il servizio di video streaming di Microsoft ormai chiuso da tempo.xQc, invece, viene considerato lo streamer più popolare per il numero di ore di visualizzazione delle sue trasmissioni. Anche in questo caso però, il dato va letto in prospettiva, perché xQc è anche uno degli streamer più attivi. Quindi stiamo parlando sicuramente dello streamer in lingua inglese più seguito, ma anche di quello che fa live stream per più ore.Auronplay invece, vince per numero medio di spettatori collegati ai suoi live stream. Si parla 112.000 persone, contro le 80.000 di Dream (che però ha fatto un solo live stream di tre ore nell'ultimo periodo). La media di Auronplay…
