How To Apply For Twitch Affiliate Program | (Step By Step Guide)

[@ChripyIvy]

I have a question about the Affiliate Agreement part! Are we allowed to post clips from our first stream as affilate to other platforms? I understand the part of not multistreaming to other platfrorms the first 24 hours as an affiliate!

[@NobleGuides]

I thought I had made a video on this already, but I guess I'll have to do it soon. AS OF TWITCH'S LATEST UPDATE: you can multistream everything so long as they are the same quality streams. Ex. You can't stream to youtjbe in 1080 and stream to twitch in 720. But as long as they are the same quality visually and audio wise, you can now stream everywhere and anywhere. Hope that makes sense. I'll work on an update video for this and try to post it next week.

[@ChripyIvy]

@@NobleGuides Thank you! This does make sense to me. This helped me out a lot as a streamer who is currently working on getting Affiliate 😀

[@NobleGuides]

@ChripyIvy good luck with the grind. Drop in my stream sometime www.twitch.tv/N0bleArcade I'll be streaming Portal today in like an hour and a half. Also drop a link to your stream and I'll drop by sometime.

[@rosseenglimmer8962]

I was getting close to reaching affiliate and this really helped a lot of what to expect. Thanks!

[@NobleGuides]

Nice. I'm glad I could help. Good luck on affiliate.

[@OdinsRaver]

Hit affiliate within 1 1/2 months of grinding. I'm filling out the form now. For pay out you have to reach $50 not $100 now! That's cool

[@NobleGuides]

Yeah. They updated it since this was posted. Congrats on affiliate.

[@Nofear_6370]

And you can multi stream now. I just did a quick affiliate grind and im about to get it im on day 14 right now

[@murderdanails4195]

did you do it within 30 days? i’m stuck on should i continue to grind cause the 30 days is up

[@NobleGuides]

Why give up only after 30 days? If your not in it for the long haul, you probably won't like it later. Not saying don't do it. Just saying, I'd say keep up the grind if it's really something you wanna do.

[@murderdanails4195]

@@NobleGuides❤because it says in the last 30 days and im passed 30 days i didn’t know if i was still eligible that was my question lol could i still be eligible even after 30 days?

[@ColbyTAM]

Hey man! your video was awesome and helped me fill it out correctly. I am new to this Aswell and just unlocked Twitch Affiliate. We both are grinding together to make great content for our viewers. I pray for you man and encourage you to stay strong and continue being great at explaining and more videos. I subscribed!

[@NobleGuides]

Thank you. I'll keep on grinding and you do the same. Congrats on affiliate and good luck working towards partner.

[@GhostWolf_Alpha]

Well I'm getting close to Affiliate myself and thank you for showing how to apply for it.

[@NobleGuides]

Happy to help. And good luck with affiliate.

[@dicedoomkid]

This answers my questions so I don’t even have to ask them, very cool. Better get started on that 8 hours of stream

[@NobleGuides]

Good luck. Thanks for dropping by the channel.

[@dicedoomkid]

Content creators together strong!

[@xantech42]

Thanks a lot buddy! Your video was very helpful indeed….keep up the great work

[@NobleGuides]

Thank you for the nice comment. Glad I could help you out. Have a great weekend,

[@rafaelguimaraes8363]

I'm a EU Citizen and this helped out a lot, even in 2024. I honestly thought they (Twitch) would be more obvious on the fact that these criteria would need to be filled if one wants to add emotes to their channel. Instead of leaving us on a page that pretty much said something along the lines of "Ooops, you were too fast, come back later or refresh the page in a few minutes". It would be helpful if they clearly stated that you have to proceed with the onboarding to do x,y,z Since I'm so small, I was not thinking about the monetary gain so I didn't bother to look for such an option, but thank you for providing clear and easy-to-follow instructions

[@NobleGuides]

Happy to help. Yeah I've made 120$ in 4 months. Lol. It's not worth the money for me but I love the interaction with my small audience.

[@rafaelguimaraes8363]

@@NobleGuides In all honesty, I couldn't care less for the money side of things. I'm enjoying the whole process and just hanging with like-minded people. The reason for setting this up is more out of fear that I'll end up getting a letter from the state saying I haven't paid for "x, y, z" whilst I was innocently streaming. I just rather be safe than sorry. I'm not sure what your objective is but I wish you good luck with it all and I hope you're enjoying the process as much as I am

[@NobleGuides]

@rafaelguimaraes8363 I don't care about the money either, just a Lil cherry on top to feed my gaming habbit... gaming is so expensive, when one doesn't stick to one or two games. The little money I do make I try to put back into the channels either with new games or gear to help me keep making vids. Good luck with everything. If you ever need help feel free to reach out. I'm always happy to help.

[@rafaelguimaraes8363]

@@NobleGuides Nice! I completely agree and understand where you're coming from, it's not an easy hobbie and/or job but you seem to have the know-how. And for sure, that's very kind of you, thank you for taking your time to respond back to me. I hope all great things come your way

[@NobleGuides]

@rafaelguimaraes8363 same to you. Lemme know when u stream and drip a link. I'll try to make it by sometime. Yt might block the link but I'll still get it and head over when I see your online.

[@dbthump01]

Hey I just got my affiliation and this helped out a ton! Thank you.

[@NobleGuides]

Nice. Glad to help. Good luck on the grind.

[@7chrolex2]

how long did it took for you to get accepted in ?

[@NobleGuides]

@7chrolex like a day or two.

[@contrablast81]

Thanks for the video! I woke up this morning to see I just completed the Path to Affiliate achievement. But i dont see any "Get Started" or "Onboarding" options yet. Do they take some time to appear?

[@NobleGuides]

Yeah, unfortunately it can take a few days as twitch is often behind their own count. But if it says you completed it you can expect to hear from them Inna week or so. If it's longer than that. You can usually reach out to support and they will get you sorted.

[@Nivastera]

just recently got to affiliate, was wondering if u recommend same email address (as used for twitch acc) or use another one?

[@NobleGuides]

I personally use a business email for all my "business" stuff (youtube,twitch, tiktok & Facebook monetization) and then have different email I use for actually using the platforms. So yeah, I'd say it's safer for everyone to have a different "business" email, only you know. So it makes it harder to get hacked and have your money lost.

[@Nivastera]

@@NobleGuides makes sense to use a complete separate email. ty for quick reply and for tips!

[@TheWoollySamurai]

This was definitely helpful, thank you

[@NobleGuides]

Sorry so late with the reply. Glad it helped you.

[@SergeantArcher]

How long does it usually take for the Forms to be accepted? Usually it takes like 5 minutes for them to be accepted but I've been waiting for a day...what should I do?

[@NobleGuides]

You can wait and be a little more patient with them or you can contact support and see if they can get you sorted out. Lemme know how it goes.

[@zainahsan973]

I have a question I completed affiliate requirements when click on get started they said.....sorry.unless you have gotten a time machine that connect is unavailable. What will I do?

[@NobleGuides]

Try clearing your cache or using a different web browser. That seems to fix most people issues. Try again after doing that and let me know if it worked for ya.

[@Dilnfn]

even though I am a kid i should put my information in and not my parents correct?

[@Dilnfn]

Is it safe to put my social security number in this website

[@NobleGuides]

That's hard for me to answer, I don't have kids and never had to deal with doing this when I was younger. I'd ask your parents to help you out with it or reach out to twitch support to make sure you do everything on the up n up.

[@NobleGuides]

@Dilnfn yeah, that's just like any other job application. You'll always have to provide it for tax purposes. Short answer: yes it's safe and okay.

[@UnReFined-zl3vy]

Hey, as a streamer who recently reached the affiliate goal and a minor, as well as someone NOT from USA (What a predicament) I'm worried about getting anything wrong about this, so I would like to ask a few things. I need to input my tax ID since I don't pay taxes I can't do that, should I use my parents?

[@NobleGuides]

As your aren't someone from the US. I'd have to say ask your parents or someone for help. I'd hate to give you wrong advice and have something come back and bite you in the end. Sorry but I can only speak from my experience as a person from the US. Congrats on reaching affiliate and keep on grinding. 😁👍

[@UnReFined-zl3vy]

@@NobleGuides No problem and thanks

[@NobleGuides]

@UnReFined-zl3vy send me a whisper on twitch I'll try to drop by sometime. @N0bleArcade The o is a zero.

[@Chrolex2]

so after the 24hrs if being affiliate you can multi stream again ?

[@NobleGuides]

Not anymore! Twitch recently updated their TOS to where you can now multiscreen anywhere at any time. I'll have to make an update to this video sometime. But you no longer have to worry about multistreaming or being punished for doing so. Hope that helps.

[@7chrolex2]

do you get accepted immediatly but if not how long do you have to wait ?

[@NobleGuides]

@7chrolex sometimes it can take a few days. If you feel like it is taking too long be sure to reach out to support and they will usually get you hooked up.

[@joystick_JOKESTER]

im stuck on the ein part, i dont get what im supposed to put nd how do i get it

[@NobleGuides]

If you have a business or LLC this is where your ein would go. If not in the U.S. you'd put in your Social Security Number. If you're outside the U.S. I'm sorry but I don't know how that works and you'll have to look it up for yourself.

[@joystick_JOKESTER]

@@NobleGuides thank you so much for your reply! luckily i clicked personal or sole proprietor nd used my ssn, was trying to do LLC lmao

[@huntersausageandredbeardsh2360]

Can you use a different email than what your account has. Mine has expired but I contacted support.

[@NobleGuides]

I'm pretty sure you can. Just make sure it's one you own.

[@NoLimitJordan]

I have 5 followers but I already reached 9 hours of streaming, do I just have to get 50 followers to sign up?

[@NobleGuides]

Yup Keep grinding away.

[@kurekurekurekurekure3]

I put in my ID and they said i need to contact support because i tried too many times, but when i contact support they just tell me to do it again and i cant (I am underaged and we even did it with my parents IDs, any tips?

[@NobleGuides]

I always suggest, if you're having issues, to be sure you clear internet cache and try again or use a different web browser. This usually fixes the issue.

[@Alsaid955]

yo, can you please answer me, so whenever i try to press continue on the first page where i have to fill up my name and email and stuff it says "Something went wrong. Please try again" WHAT DO I DO?

[@NobleGuides]

Usually clearing your internet cache or using a different web browser will work to get past this. They it and lemme know how it goes.

[@Alsaid955]

@@NobleGuides please help, where it says "Affiliate onboarding" there is a LOCK sign on the side and whenever, i fill everything out on first page it still says "Something went wrong. Please try again" WHAT DO I DO? i have also deleted cache and tried to use edge but still not working! do i have to wait 24hr after i get the email or somthing?

[@NobleGuides]

U should be able to do it ASAP. If not contact support they will get u fixed up.

[@CoViot]

Question, i cant fill out anthing in the step "Setting up payout method" its all blocked

[@NobleArcade]

I'm jot sure why that is. U might wanna try a different browser or try clearing your internet cache. That usually fixes things.

[@Jebo1x]

You most likely filled in the optional company tab, oppose to living it blank in the previous steps before. Happened to me as well.

[@DJNinja331]

So I tried to sign up and I'm 17 and a half so I need a parent permission which I did do at that and I sign all the tax stuff under my name but when I get to the last part which is the payout I want to edit the I info to be under my parents name but it won't let me edit it at all

[@NobleGuides]

After you get accepted, you can go back and edit anything you need. Just get accepted and then go back to your settings to update anything you need.

[@DJNinja331]

So I can get accepted if I don't do the 4th step?

[@DJNinja331]

Thank you so much man that saves me so much time because I don't want the money I just wanted the emotes and channel point stuff. Thank you 🙏

[@NobleGuides]

@@DJNinja331 Oh, sorry I thought u said you sent it in and wanted to change the fourth step. No, you definitely need to be accepted first. Your info needs to match all the addresses and personal info you input before otherwise, it won't let you continue. So you might have to go back and input the info you actually want on the last part.

[@NobleGuides]

Happy to help.

[@bclarn]

what if im not a US citizen and what tax interview mean? Are they going to charge me money? Even if no one donates me bits?

[@NobleGuides]

Sorry, I'm from the U.S. so I don't know any other way than the way it works here. Be sure to read the FAQ and see if u can find answers for your area. Sorry again.

[@bclarn]

@@NobleGuides ok ty 🙂

[@Zayxlives]

I filled out the tax info and it still says not started

[@NobleGuides]

Make sure it is correct first, there is one section where I think something has to be the exact same or it won't work. If everything is correct, try clearing your cache and trying again... or use a different internet browser. These steps usually allow you to get it through.

[@iqtakeselo1013]

Why am I getting a please try again error on the first section

[@NobleGuides]

Sorry I didn't see this before. Try clearing your internet Cache or using a different web browser. This will usually fix the issue.

[@MYSTIXX333]

my tax form doesnt even say completed when i filled it out it just still says not completed it's been since last thursday

[@NobleGuides]

try using a different web browser or clearing your internet cache... that usually fixes the issue.

[@citrus4k]

when i click on get started it just says unless u have a time machine this content is unavailable

[@NobleGuides]

you might have to use a different browser or empty your internet cache for it to work properly.

It's important tho have a little community or help when u get started. Have a few friends (or family even) drop in on the days you stream the first few times. It will be a big help. Be sure you share when you are streaming on other socials and keep a consistent schedule. People will show up.
