Challenges

Let chat set the stakes. Viewers pledge points, gifts or tips toward challenges for you, you accept or decline, and the whole chat watches the race to fund the next one.

Short answer:StreamNeeds challenges let viewers set the streamer challenges and fund them. On the Challenge Board viewers pledge points; with paid challenges, gifted subs, Kicks, bits and Super Chats fund priced challenges, and a challenge race lets chat vote on which one comes next.

What it does

Dares and challenges are some of the most fun moments on stream. StreamNeeds gives them structure. On the Challenge Board, viewers pledge points to suggest a challenge, and you or your staff accept, decline, complete or refund it.

Paid challenges go further: set a price on challenges and let gifts, Kicks, bits and Super Chats fund them. In a challenge race, chat votes with its support on which challenge happens next, and the overlay shows the race live.
