The Partner Plus Program Is Here. Is It Worth The Hype?
In their latest blog post, Twitch announced a new program for Partners dubbed the Partner Plus Program.
According to Twitch CEO Dan Clancy, this new program aims to reward Partners with a 70/30 revenue share on net sub revenue should they meet the program qualifications.
Initially, the Twitch community seemed optimistic about this program. However, once prominent streamers in the space revealed more details about how the program will ACTUALLY work, the community’s perspective shifted and became more critical of Twitch’s decision-making.
Rather than dive into all the details here, I encourage you to watch my recent YouTube video where I cover the specifics of the program and how it will affect Affiliates and Partners going forward.
