KICK INTRODUCES NEW CURRENCY TO PAY VIEWERS FOR WATCHING LIVESTREAMS

By

October 15, 2024

Kick, Twitch’s rival streaming platform, is taking steps to differentiate itself
from its competitors. The Stake-backed platform is about to introduce a new
feature that lets users get paid to watch livestreams.


KICK’S NEW CURRENCY FOR VIEWERS

One of the most popular streamers on Kick, Adin Ross, claimed that the site is
developing a “Kick Currency” that will allow users to receive money while
watching content from their favorite streamers.

“They want to come out with the Kick Currency that I told you guys about,” Ross
shared during one of his streams. He clarified that streamers would be able to
compensate their viewers through the system. “I can give people Kick, and they
can cash out,” he added.




HOW THE KICK CURRENCY WORKS

This model is different from Twitch’s Bits, which viewers purchase to support
streamers. Instead of having to spend money, Kick will allow viewers to earn
through participation. It’s still unclear how this currency system will work in
detail, such as how much viewers can earn or how often they can collect the
currency. As Ross said, “Not every person will get paid to watch,” leaving more
questions to be answered.


COMPETING WITH TWITCH AND OTHERS

Kick is establishing itself as a competitor to YouTube, Twitch and other
streaming platforms. Even though Twitch is still the most popular platform, it
has recently encountered difficulties, like stricter restrictions on gambling
streams. Kick, on the other hand, expects that its new currency system will
attract more users.

Many questions remain about Kick’s new approach. Will viewers who usually
watch Twitch be drawn in by this currency? That is still to be determined, but
many fans are expected to be drawn to the possibility of making money simply by
viewing streaming.
