When I have free time, I often watch streamers who go live, especially streamers who gamble in their sessions. Many of these streamers advertise their links, or customized referral codes. Sometimes, I think they might be making more money from it than they are from streaming platforms. Do you think I am wrong about this ? or, is it the other way around ? Their bankroll is huge (the streamers), and I don't think they can get it only from pay per view, right ?
By the way, I have mostly seen gambling streamers on the Kick site. Yeah, I know there are other platforms that allow it, but I don't think they are as free as Kick. So, do you know of any other sites that offer the same freedom for gambling streamers ?
Yeah it's mostly casino affiliate deals where streamers take a huge cut of their viewers' losses, alongside fake balance credits given straight by the house for high stakes promotion. Subscription revenue is pocket change compared to what they make routing traffic through their aff links.
As for platforms, kick dominates because twitch cracked down on crypto igaming, but rumble is the main alternative offering freedom for sponsored gambling, while places like youtube live force creators to censor links or risk bans.
