9. Q: How does affiliate twitch sub badge program works?

You can give subscribers badges depending on their status. As an affiliate, badges change depending on how long the subscriber has been a follower of your channel. There are six time frames which include base (new followers) : two months, three months, six months, nine months, and one year.

As a partner, sub badges range all the way up to eight years and automatically change based on how long you’ve followed a Twitch stream. Twitch has two types of programs.

The affiliate program helps grow Twitch as a brand and platform, attracting gamers who build audiences. It's not easy to transition from newbie (streamer) to full-time gamer when trying to earn an income on Twitch. First, you need the channel size - that is at least 50 followers and at least 500 minutes in total broadcast time lost over the last 30 days.

When someone subscribes to a Twitch channel, they want to support the streamer and be part of the community.

One great way of improving that sense of community is to have customised badges exclusive to that channel. The best badges are those related to the channel branding or the streamer's content. When choosing the badges, it's important to remember that Twitch allows for streamers to upload different badges and make them change progressively as you subscribe for longer periods of time (1st month, 3rd month, 6th month, etc). That means that older subscribers will have more advanced badges and feel rewarded
