Use cases

Make more money from your stream

Viewers support streams that give them something back. These StreamNeeds tools turn gifts, subs and tips into moments on screen, and help you land and keep sponsors.

Short answer:Streamers earn more when support creates a moment viewers enjoy. StreamNeeds gives you stream wheels viewers spin with gifted subs and Kicks, paid challenges and challenge races funded by gifts, a PayPal tip page with no cut, goals and a subathon timer, plus sponsor campaign reports, a media kit and wager races for casino affiliates.

Give support a payoff

A gift that only plays a sound is easy to skip. A gift that spins a wheel, pushes a challenge closer or adds time to a subathon is something viewers want to do again, because the whole chat gets something out of it.

The second half of earning is sponsors. Brands pay for proof, and StreamNeeds gives you a media kit with live numbers and reports that log every mention.

The features that help most

  1. Stream wheels

    Viewers spin your prize wheel with gifted subs, Kicks, bits or points. Surprise prizes give them a reason to gift again.

  2. Challenges

    Let chat fund challenges with gifts, Kicks, bits and Super Chats, and race to get theirs picked next.

  3. Tip page

    Tips go straight to your PayPal with no cut taken, and every tip plays an alert and moves your goals.

  4. Stream alerts (Alerts Studio)

    Bigger alerts for bigger tips and rare legendary alerts give viewers a reason to go one step further.

  5. Sponsor campaigns and reports

    Log every sponsor mention with a button and send reports with real numbers, which is how deals get renewed.

  6. Media kit

    A media kit with your last 30 days of live numbers is the first thing a sponsor asks for.

  7. Wager leaderboards

    Casino streamers: wager races bring more players under your affiliate code, on a page that looks the part.

  8. OBS overlay editor

    Goal bars, a hype train and a subathon timer show support building up, which brings in more of it.

Where to start

Set up a tip page and a goal bar today. Then build one stream wheel tied to gifted subs or Kicks and try it on your next stream. When your first sponsor talks start, send them your media kit link.
