Summary
Popular streamer Adin Ross just shared the details on how much money he’s making streaming on Kick,Twitch’s big rival, showing off the huge numbers he earns from just one session. Kick entered the livestreaming world in late 2022 and quickly grew, signing top talent, including some ofTwitch’s biggest names, and establishing itself as a serious contender.
Twitch has stayed the leader in livestreaming for years, while other challengers like Mixer and Facebook Gaming couldn’t last. Kick, though, went against what many expected after early predictions said it’d fail fast. The platform built its plan around two key things: less strict content moderation than Twitch and better payouts for streamers.Kick also signed several high-profile content creatorswith lucrative contracts to pull in viewers and grow quickly. Adin Ross was one of the first big names to switch, joining Kick in February 2023.
Adin Ross, who’s been with Kick for over two years, just broke down how much he’s earning on the platform during a recent stream. He explained that even without subscriptions, theKick Partner Programkeeps the cash coming, and any streamer can make solid earnings.Adin laid it out: 1,000 viewers means about $100 an hour, while 50 viewers nets around $10 an hour. To show what that looks like, he pointed to his April 1 stream, where he teamed up with xQc and Sneako for just under five hours and earned $27,169. Talking to new streamers, Adin said Kick makes growing fast and easy, adding, “I streamed for five hours and made 30 grand.”
