The Kick ladder
| Step | Requirements | Unlocks |
|---|---|---|
| Streamer | 5 hours streamed in total | Subscriptions and KICKs |
| Verified | In 30 days: 15 hours, 50 average viewers, 100 unique chatters, 10 active subs | The step before Partner |
| Partner | Verified, 250 followers, and in 30 days: 75 average viewers, 30 hours, 25 active subs, 250 unique chatters, 3 VODs | Per-stream pay on top of subs |
Kick also invites Twitch Partners and creators with large audiences elsewhere. Subs cost viewers a flat $5 worldwide, and the streamer keeps $4.75.
Sub income = active subs × $4.75 a month
Example: 25 active subs, the Partner bar, pay about $119 a month before per-stream pay.
