Stream With Pride FAQs

**Updated June 1:** Last week, we announced some ways we are celebrating Pride on Twitch. It’s a bittersweet time as we recognize this joyful month is also mixed with widespread pain for Black people around the world. Out of respect for all members of our community, we have decided to pause our emote-based Subscription and Bits promotion for Pride that was scheduled to begin today. We’ll keep you posted on timing.

From June 1 to 30, 2020, earn emotes for yourself and fellow community members—and help Twitch donate to charity—by celebrating Pride with Cheers, Subscriptions, or Subscription Gifts.

Emotes created by /sixtenart, /nanasty, /pandreem, /hannat2ht, and /Bijouxdemon.

Celebrate Pride on Twitch by Cheering 300 Bits or more, purchasing a Subscription, or Gifting Subs on any Affiliate or Partner channel. With each show of support you will receive exclusive Pride-themed emotes, and send emotes to the rest of the community. The larger the show of support, the greater the number of emotes given to other viewers.

Also, Twitch will donate $0.10 to The Trevor Project for every Cheer over 300 Bits, paid Subscription, and Subscription gift, up to a maximum of $300,000.

When does the Twitch Pride event start and end?

The event will run from June 1 to 30, 2020, and all emotes earned will be permanent.
How does the charity match work?
Twitch will donate $0.10 to The Trevor Project for every Cheer of 300 Bits or more, paid Subscription, or Subscription gift, up to a maximum donation of $300,000.
How do the emote rewards work?
Emotes are given randomly to other viewers in the channel when you support a streamer. There are a total of 25 exclusive emotes up for grabs. Upon receiving an emote, recipients can quickly thank the initiator by clicking the “Thank” prompt at the bottom of their chat.
Will I be eligible for the same set of emotes for Cheering, Subbing, or Gifting?
Yes. Whether you Cheer, Subscribe, or Gift a sub, you will be eligible to receive the same emotes.
Can I get the same emote multiple times?
No. Each time you unlock an emote, whether by Subbing, Gifting, or Cheering you will receive a new exclusive emote that you do not already own.
Will I get the same number of emotes regardless of how much I contribute?
No! The bigger your single contribution, the more emotes you will earn. See the table above to learn how many emotes your contribution is eligible for.
Can I still participate anonymously?
Participating anonymously will still send emotes to other viewers as usual. However, you will not earn emotes yourself.
Do I get and/or give more emotes for subscribing or gifting subscriptions at a higher tier?
Yes. Tier 2 subs will earn you one additional emote and trigger 5 additional emotes for the community. Tier 3 subs will earn an additional 2 emotes and trigger an additional 10 emotes for the community.
Do I get more emotes for Cheering over 5,000 Bits?
No. Ten emotes is the maximum number of emotes you can receive for a single Cheer.
If I’ve received emotes, will I keep all of them forever?
Yes! Any emotes earned during this promotion will be kept permanently.
What if there are more emotes than viewers in a channel?
If your contribution is large enough that the emote rewards exceed the number of viewers in a channel, followers of the channel will also receive emotes. If all viewers and followers of the channel have received emotes, viewers and followers will receive additional emotes until they have all been distributed.
I just subscribed/resubscribed to a channel, where is my emote reward?
You will receive your emote when your subscription/resubscription is shared in chat.
