Twitch Subscription Payment - How It Really Works!

Have you ever had a stream on Twitch where you got a couple of subs and you're like heck yeah I started making some money and then you go back to your twitch stats the next day ummmm... why is the number lower than what it shows what the hell twitch I'm gonna show you how Twitch payouts really work and much money you actually make on the live streaming platform let's go. Hey it's me it's wild coming at you for my stream support playlist where I teach you the best tips and tricks and if this is your first time here and you want to learn how to grow and improve your stream make sure you hit that big red subscribe button and tick that bell so you know in my videos go live for you and hey it any point in this video if you like the products or the service that I'm talking about did you all a favor I put links in the notes below so make sure you check them out so it seems to be a big mystery on how much money you actually make from the live streaming platform of twitch and it be honest twitch doesn't make it easy everybody has it stated in their mind to the agreement on Twitter's policy that it's a 50-50 split and yeah that's true but there's a lot of things that are not true about it and so allow me to demystify so you can understand how much money you're actually earning on the platform and this goes for affiliates and partners so listen up because this is gonna help everybody out either shooting for affiliate that is affiliate or is a partner cuz you may be surprised at how much money you're not actually making on the platform and the reasons why so to show you how much money you're earning on Twitter's platform we're gonna go really high tech and we're gonna use these blocks here to demonstrate what happens to your funds when you get one twitch subscriber coming through so I'm going to use these high tech blocks here to demonstrate what happens if you were to receive one subscription at a tier 2 which is $9.99 USD but we're gonna round that up to $10.00 for easy math normally people assume that when you get a subscription at that tier you're gonna get a 50-50 split so you're gonna receive around $5 and that's not bad thinking because that's what everybody assumes it's a 50-50 split but there are a few things that happens to that subscription before you even see it some of those things that may apply to that a subscription will be taxes may apply to that subscription then you also have things like payment processing fees from PayPal or Visa or Amex that may come into play and you also may have banking fees that come out of that subscription you may also have things like currency exchange fees that may have to apply depending on who sent it to you and this is what you're left with but that's not it now twitch once they're 50% so they're gonna take away what they have and now you're left with the rest which is an over-exaggeration of the example but now you see how many pieces of the pie are taken but that's not it if you're a twitch affiliate out there you still have one more fee when you hit the 100 USD payment mark and they send you a payment transaction guess what that costs you money again and there's another transaction fee and that's what you're left with that's your piece of the pot and this is why you see your numbers change because there's a lot of variables out there now that you have a better understanding of how twitch payments and twitch money actually works on its platform I hope it opened up your eyes to realize that you need to start diversifying your income revenue streams and if you need help with that I got you covered I already did a video on that on how to earn more money without being a twitch partner it's a game changer so make sure you check that out at the end of this video and if you still have any questions or concerns about your affiliate payouts I did a video on that too I will also put that in the top of the card because that'll answer a lot of your questions out there if you guys like this type of video and you'd like me to do more videos on questions and concerns that you have about twitch or perhaps how to make more money on twitch you know what to do leave me a comment below and I will see what I can do to help you out with that and if you'd like to help me and support this channel continue to grow there's a bunch of cool ways you can some free ways you can do it is follow me on Twitter and follow me on Instagram and if you have a few extra pennies that you'd like to squeeze together to help me out you can follow me on over at twitch.tv/Wild4Games where you can follow and if you feel like it you can hit that almighty subscribe button or you've probably even noticed on the bottom of this video player you can the join button to become a member all the proceeds go back into creating higher quality content to help all of you out there thank you guys so much for watching this video I will be back real soon with my next stream support video coming up real quick take care all peace
