4. Twitch Bits (Cheering)
Twitch is owned by Amazon so of course
it’s being monetized! This is an amazing
way viewers can make donations to their
favorite channels!
Streamers get 1 cent for every Bit pledged
-- that's roughly 70 percent.
This is about the same as YouTube Super
Chat.
5. Extra Fun!
Streamlabs has a bunch of engaging
web-based interactive live streaming
features you can look into!
We are currently using the chatbox
and leaderboard!

10. Here is how it works.
Viewers make donations
through YouTube
(Your YouTube Channel must
have Super Chat Enabled)
A free service called IFTTT (If This, Than
That) connects your YouTube to a Smart
Device. This could be anything… a WiFi
Plug, a Light, anything...

You can setup different triggers
depending on the value of the Super
Chat.
As you can see here we an emoji balloon

Balloons for $5-10 Super Chats.
13. Lametric YouTube Super Chat Integration
The Lametric Clock is a great
solution for Super Chat displays
because it provides direct
integration with IFTTT and
YouTube. This WiFi clock can
also provide detailed notifications
IFTTT calls ingredients. It can
also provide audible sound
notifications for Super Chats.
14. Channel Sponsors
Even cooler than a SuperChat is

subscriptions to support your
favorite YouTube Creators.
