How it works

You send streamers to StreamNeeds. When they've paid us twice, we pay you a month of what they pay. The leaderboard is there because it turns out people try harder when there's a scoreboard.

What you earn

One full month of whatever the streamer you brought in pays. You earn it once we've taken 2 payments from them, so every reward is already paid for.

• It's a month of what they actually pay, so if they're on a discount, your month is the discounted price.
• Paying for longer works the same way: a yearly plan pays you a twelfth of the year, a 3-month plan a third.
• It's paid once per streamer.

How XP works

• 500 XP — a streamer you referred makes their second payment.
• 50 XP — a post about StreamNeeds, after we've verified it.
• 0 XP — clicks, and sign-ups that never pay.

That last line is on purpose. If sign-ups scored, the board would be a competition in creating throwaway accounts instead of a competition in finding real streamers.

Questions

Do I need to be a streamer?

No. Anyone with a Google account can be a scout. Most of our best ones are viewers who know which streamers are struggling with spreadsheets.

When do I actually get paid?

Your reward shows as pending from your streamer's first payment. Once we've taken their second payment it's earned, then clears 30 days later to cover the refund window. Once your balance is above $50 you can request it.

How do I receive my reward?

Choose an Amazon gift card or a casino tip to a supported casino account. We confirm the delivery email or casino details with you before anything is sent.

How long does my link stay attached to someone?

30 days from the click. And once someone signs up through your link they're yours permanently — a later click on somebody else's link can never take an existing referral off you.

What counts as a post?

A video, short, clip, thread or write-up that's genuinely about StreamNeeds. Submit the link from your dashboard and we'll look at it. We check every one by hand, including the view count — self-reported numbers don't score.

Can I refer myself?

No. Your own account is rejected automatically, and buying through your own link doesn't earn anything.

What happens if my referral cancels or gets a refund?

If they cancel before their second payment, there's no reward. If either of those 2 payments is refunded or charged back, the reward is cancelled. Once both payments have stuck, cancelling later doesn't change anything: the reward is yours.

Can I stay off the leaderboard?

Yes — one switch on your dashboard removes you. You'll still earn exactly the same; you just won't be listed.
