GMG is one of the few "legitimate" game retailers who offer a good affiliate program. This is not a grey market website with shady business practices like G2A. Earning commissions while offering your viewers decent discounts is a win-win. Their payouts are pretty much industry standard and a lot of affiliate programs make you sign exclusivity clauses. This is a rock solid program.

In my POV. I recently got out of my affiliate contract and shifted to multi streaming with Twitch and YouTube. Seeing how Twitch’s direction is going and social media as a whole is changing up for more opportunities. Also cause I have an opportunity to monetize on YT. I was on the first wave of affiliates back in 2017. Although it was a great way to make some income when I was able to grow an audience of my own to have subs, the last couple of months felt like it was holding me back with exploring other platforms while still wanting to keep my twitch core community with it. So losing out on the perks with Sub emotes that I easily placed on BTTV and channel points (found an alt using StreamLabs bot.) The new change with multistreaming helped me explore more opportunities and still kept my core audience. Overall I always encourage streamers who are thinking about growing opportunities is to make content on other platforms and network with streams you can vibe with.

I know there’s many ways to approach the situation I am in but I am happy with my choices. Twitch Affiliate is great if you’re just willing to just stream on Twitch, it has its ups with perks. Numbers fluctuate so don’t get it to you but hoping it goes good for ya and have fun with streaming. Good luck on your streaming career and choice!

In all honesty, twitch affiliate helped me evolve my channel as it brung a new way of monetising my content. And by having that small income stream, I was able to buy items to improve my content like decent lighting for my camera.

And when it comes to Twitch ads, you as a streamer are able to toggle them off (which is what I have done).

 

Personally, I took affiliate the moment it was offered to me.

I haven't grown much in numbers, but with some tweaking you can make ads way less intrusive. Unsubbed viewers will get a preroll, but other than triggered ads during my BRB scene, they shouldn't get ads during the stream.

Also, Twitch has added more benefits to being affiliate. When I enrolled I only had 1 static and 1 animated emote slot. Over the past 14 months since, they changed it to 5 static slots from the get-go, plus an additional 5 follower emotes.

Channel points are also powerful tools you gain access to, if used right. They encourage engagement.

A single preroll ad is a small price to pay. It's the streamers who choose the 55% ad cut method who could drive away new viewers, if you ask me.

Just recently became an affiliate with Twitch. Looking forward to forging new milestones. Appreciate any follows for my channel. benaniman1184 is the one to look for.

If you are “wide” and publish books on Kobo, you may be interested in learning how to make a little bit extra from your Kobo book sales.

I’m fairly new at this self-publishing thing, yet I’ve already earned around $3,000 in sales from Kobo. I also get to earn a little tiny bit of extra money when people buy my books through my Kobo affiliate links. The commissions aren’t huge, but extra money is extra money, right?

See below for what I made in affiliate income from Canada over the past 30 days. It’s not much, but I’ll take that extra $34.62, please.
