Access to In-Game Content<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You get free items and equipment on games with your subscription. The equipment that you can get changes every month, but can include skins, weapon packs, and special unique characters and emotes. Also, the games that you can get the items for of course changes. As of right now, it's <a href=\"https:\/\/gaming.amazon.com\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Fortnite and Fifa 23<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Free_Games\"><\/span>2.

From what I've seen, some games that have been available before including Deponia, Drawful 2, and Titan Souls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Discounted_Games\"><\/span>3. Discounted Games<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although this isn't a Prime Gaming feature, but more a Prime subscription benefit, users will also get 5% cashback from purchases made at Amazon.com. So, you can buy games from the site without worrying about spending too much. Just remember that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/help\/customer\/display.html?nodeId=GHJG8KU6QURQMMUU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">you'll need<\/a> a Prime Visa card first.

Free Twitch Channel Subscription<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The whole focus of this article was how streamers earn money from Twitch Prime subs. At the end of the day, getting a free channel subscription is another benefit that Prime users get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How it works is that you get one free subscription that you can use on your favorite streamer - it can be a Twitch affiliate, Twitch partner, or anyone that you'd like. It works similarly to a normal subscription, so you get access to the sub-only chat, a special sub-badge, and no ads.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Young-Man-with-Headsets-Playing-Games-1200x800.jpg\" alt=\"Young Man with Headsets Playing Games\" class=\"wp-image-7027\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Young-Man-with-Headsets-Playing-Games.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Young-Man-with-Headsets-Playing-Games-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Young-Man-with-Headsets-Playing-Games-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Exclusive_Emoticons\"><\/span>5. Exclusive Emoticons<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You get access to unique emojis with Twitch Prime subscriptions, like KappaHD and ScaredyCat. But Twitch Turbo users can also use a lot of these emojis, so keep this in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Unique_Prime_Badge\"><\/span>6. Unique Prime Badge<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Last but not least, you get a cool Prime badge that you can flaunt on Twitch. It works on all channels, plus it's crown shaped which I think will make you feel extra special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQ\"><\/span>FAQ<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Answered below are some popular questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_How_Much_Do_Streamers_on_Twitch_Make_From_Normal_Subscriptions\"><\/span>1. How Much Do Streamers on Twitch Make From Normal Subscriptions?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like Twitch Prime subs, streamers get a similar rate from regular subscriptions. So, smaller-medium accounts will get around 50% of the revenue they make, while larger names get to keep 70%. This applies to all subscription types, including tier 1, 2, and 3 subs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally speaking, a tier 1 sub costs $5, so a regular streamer will make $2.5 minimum from it. While bigger streamers have better contracts, so they can make $3.75 per tier 1 subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tier 2 subscriptions cost $10, with tier 3 subscriptions costing $25. So, a regular streamer will be able to make $5 and $12.5 from them respectively. On the other hand, a larger Twitch affiliate or Twitch partner would be able to keep $7 and $17.5 respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, Twitch keeps the rest. But there's always the chance that they might change this percentage in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, all of the above excludes how much they'd make from ad revenue, which can equate to some major monthly revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_How_Much_Does_a_Twitch_Streamer_Make_From_10000_Subs\"><\/span>2. How Much Does a Twitch Streamer Make From 10,000 Subs?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer depends on what subscription tiers we're talking about, as well as once again, whether we're talking about big Twitch affiliates or Partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like I said earlier, a tier 1 normal sub starts at $5, so a smaller-medium streamer would make $25,000 from 10,000 of them, while a larger channel would get to keep $35,000 in subscription revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to Tier 2 subscriptions, a smaller-medium streamer would make $50,000 from 10,000 of them, while a bigger name would earn $70,000 in subscription revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tier 3 subscriptions cost $25, so a regular streamer would get to keep $125,000 from 10,000 of them, while larger streamers would get to keep a whopping $175,000 from the total earnings.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Young-Player-Playing-Games-at-Gaming-Hub-1200x800.jpg\" alt=\"Young Player Playing Games at Gaming Hub\" class=\"wp-image-7028\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Young-Player-Playing-Games-at-Gaming-Hub.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Young-Player-Playing-Games-at-Gaming-Hub-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Young-Player-Playing-Games-at-Gaming-Hub-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/resources\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read more resources<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Thoughts\"><\/span>Final Thoughts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Streamers get anywhere between $2.50 to $3.50 per Twitch Prime sub. As mentioned, how much streamers earn really depends on how big of a channel they run - larger names get a 70% cut (like with the regular subscriptions), while smaller channels will only get 50% max.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, compared to normal tier 1 subscriptions, streamers get paid the same exact revenue share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hopefully, you found all of the points that were run through useful, and know everything you need to on Twitch Prime subs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twitch streamers can make around $2.5 - 3.5 dollars off Twitch Prime subscriptions, depending on how big of a streamer they are (more on this later).
