Following our previous guide, ‘How To Set Up Your Twitch Creator Profile For StreamElements Sponsorships,’ we will discuss how to accept the different sponsorship deals you may have on your StreamElements Dashboard.
If you have used StreamElements before, you may already be used to this particular layout and screen. If not, you only need to navigate to the StreamElements website, log in with your Twitch account, and click on Sponsorships on the left. You will see all the sponsorships available to you at the time.
To get started with a sponsored stream, find the sponsor you’d like to work with and click on their campaign. You will be taken to a screen with more information about potential revenue and goals, as well as requirements for the campaign you’ve chosen.
Once you have accepted the campaign, it will generate links, widgets, and whatever else is needed to get you up and running to start earning from that sponsor. For instance, the RAID: Shadow Legends campaign gives me browser source goal widgets for OBS, Twitch panel banners, chatbot commands and timers, and a fully re-implementable budget between $10- $60 plus a $20 bonus!
StreamElements makes accepting sponsorships and brand deals simple so that anyone can set one up in their stream. With them now working alongside Twitch to make these deals and offers available to more users, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t take advantage of this to earn a little extra revenue for your stream and who knows who Twitch will be partnering with next to expand on their sponsorship opportunities?!
With every sponsor and brand deal you accept and complete via this method, you can update your Twitch Creator Profile with those brands and use that page as a media kit for other socials, allowing you to reach out to potential sponsorship and brand deals independent of Twitch and StreamElements.
Using Twitch X StreamElements for your sponsorships and brand deals would be an excellent way to get your foot in the door for building your community and reach. Still, it would probably be in your best interest to only accept those offers applicable to your stream, community or interests as if you do end up accepting every offer there is, that may come across as desperate or needy with your audience and it may not have the same benefit, reach or even quality of content that you would be usually putting out there as you don’t have a genuine interest in it.
As mentioned in a previous article, just keep these types of streams in line with your morals, beliefs, and always make sure your community knows what you’re doing and your reasoning behind it, and I’m sure they’d support you any way they can.
