Connect your tips
Already take tips through Streamlabs or StreamElements? Paste your token here and tips show up on our free alerts, goals, tip jar, event list, leaderboard and credits. The money still goes straight to you; we never see it.
Using Ko-fi instead? Connect Ko-fi. YouTube Super Chats and memberships need nothing: they come from your YouTube chat.
Streamlabs
- Open the Streamlabs dashboard → Settings → API Settings.
- Open the API Tokens tab and copy Your Socket API Token.
StreamElements
- Open StreamElements → your avatar → Channels and pick your channel.
- Click Show secrets and copy the Overlay token (the JWT token also works).
How it works
- Your tokens are saved only in this browser. Overlay setup pages add them to your overlay link, so keep that link private like any other overlay link.
- Your overlay connects straight to Streamlabs or StreamElements from OBS. Our servers never receive the tokens or the tips.
- To test, send a test tip from the Streamlabs or StreamElements dashboard while your overlay is open in OBS.
- If you ever paste a link somewhere public by mistake, regenerate the token on Streamlabs or StreamElements; the old one stops working.
