Twitch usually pays them 50% of the money it collects from their subscribers, though some of the biggest streamers receive a 70-30 “revenue split”. But the platform receives none of the revenue streamers make from ads or donations. Twitch is scrapping its own new advertising rules, following a backlash that saw streamers leave the platform. The Amazon-owned livestreaming service had said it would restrict the size and type of ads used by streamers who create content on Twitch. This would have substantially reduced the ways in which streamers generate income on the platform. However, Twitch has abandoned this policy after several creators threatened to boycott the platform and some moved elsewhere. Do you think that Twitch should have stick on the policy to allow it drive the company agendas ?
