Ask Can you monetize PPV ads and traffic on Twitch as well?

[Brajet]

So I was under the impression that twitch paid out something like $0.002 per 1000 ad views, but I was looking at my earnings page and I've streamed twice since becoming affiliate and apparently have made $0.80 in ads??! I have like slightly over 3 avg viewers so I don't know where that came from unless I just fundamentally misunderstand the ad revenue system lmao

Anybody know what that might be? If I'm making money like that for ads on the regular they might be a more viable monetization scheme than I thought lol

Yes, you can monetize PPV ads and traffic on Twitch, but it works differently than traditional PPV networks. Twitch mainly pays streamers through subscriptions, bits, and ad revenue from their own system. You could technically use external PPV traffic to drive viewers to your Twitch streams, which may increase ad impressions or donations. However, Twitch has strict rules, so you need to make sure any traffic you bring in follows their terms to avoid issues.

Yes, you can monetize PPV ads and traffic on Twitch, but it depends on how you set things up. Twitch runs ads automatically for partners and affiliates, and you earn from the views. So, if you've got a good number of viewers, you can make money from those ads. You can also use other ways like sponsored content or affiliate links to add to your income. It takes some time, but it's possible to earn well this way.
