Partner Applications

Hello, my name is Maria and my username is: maryalley.

I've been streaming since February 2019 approximately, and I'm really happy with my community because it's growing continuously. I can say that I have a very loyal and active audience in my chat. I sent the request recently and It was denied. Right now I have 2,588 followers and 25,303 views, I stream a minimum of 5 days a week and 3 hours a day. I always tell my followers when I won't stream. I really care about my community because I want them have a good time! I meet the minimum requirements. In the email denial I was told to improve the description of my channel, my social networks and the look of the brand. I rectified as soon as possible everything and I left it as professional as possible in order to be admitted in the next request. What I don't see well is the wait time for requesting again. I would like to have the possibility of a second review and to be told where I could improve and not. I think it is necessary for the streamer to know where it is failing and be able to correct everything. I can't resubmit a request in 70 days, but I think I meet all the requirements right now. I'm always playing a variety of games, so I understand that we have to have an average of 20-40 viewers. And the truth is that I comply with them.

I keep saying please contact me and rectify my application as soon as possible and I can be a member of such a fantastic community as Mixer. Both I and my audience are looking forward to it. Thank you very much for your time but try to give me the solution.

Greetings.

Hello,

I would like to contact you for more information on partnership requests.

Because my community, myself, and other streamers meet the partnership criteria do not understand.

First of all, I would like you to understand that this is not a claim against my rejected request, but an exchange in order to better understand the partnership request.

1- did you take into account the region of the partnership request (for example, I am French, as well as other streamers who have already made the request and that it is also refused)?

2- To date, you are asking for an average of 40 to 60 spectators simultaneously, outside the French and French-speaking community and very few on mixers and that it is very complicated for us to get this even with trendy games. (Even one of your French partners can't get up to your recommendations and yet he is a partner and we don't understand his reason for obtaining it with these criteria!)

3- When I asked you, I told you of my ambition to help the French-speaking community with my knowledge of the platform and the services or software so that it can succeed on mixer. Many of the streamers I have helped (some of whom have become partners) appreciate the service I provide because of the lack of Francophone visibility and communication. Unfortunately, some of them left on Twitch again because of this and the lack of French speakers on the platform. It's been 3 years with this account that I'm on mixer, I'm proud to be part of your community, to have discovered Beam in February 2016. It is true, however, that with all the changes that Beam/Mixer has made since its inception, I have seen improvements mainly for English speakers.

4- Ghost spectators are a scourge that affects some streams (mine was once a stream), I was discriminated against and accused of bot with the threat of mass reporting. I am not the only one in the case who has suffered this (one of your partners has suffered this too).

5- the francophone community is therefore questioning the ccu you are asking us to set too high for the average statistics of francophones.

Looking forward to receiving a response from the partnership department, please accept my sincere greetings and congratulations to all the mixer team for the work accomplished on the mixer.

Thank you in advance

Hello, I'm OgSavageKitty and I'm going to try to keep this short. I started streaming since Oct (7 months ago). I currently have 12,322 followers and 119,547 views. I applied for partnership 5/5/19 and got a response on 5/9/19. I and my community believe that I have been reviewed unfairly. I have everything that Mixer is looking for in a partnered streamer. Community building and engagement are the reasons I got denied which bewilders me. I have an extensive, and loyal community. If it wasn't for them I wouldn't be how far I am right now! They always ask me when can they sub, and have been saving sparks for me. I make sure I communicate with everyone in the stream, and actively speak to the audience. As far as to spark engagement I do have interactive buttons, but they only cost one spark. I disable all sparks that cost more than 5,000, and I tell all my viewers that use sparks on me to save them because they only benefit partner streamers.

When I was under review I only streamed and had VOD on for 3 days. Sunday I streamed Fortnite and was averaging 50-75 viewers like yall ask for in popular games. Monday I streamed GTA averaging 45viewers, and Thursday I streamed GTA and Overwatch averaging 30 viewers. "Partners should be leading the pack in their genre, as a general rule. You don't have to be in the top 5 (though if you are, please reach out to us!), " Which I do achieve whenever I stream GTA, Overwatch, or street fighter. I feel like I honestly got denied because I don't have a face cam and I'm not the only one who thinks that. That's the only real reason I can think of. If that's true then that's completely unethical. I know that there are partner streamers that don't have a face cam, but I don't know any that have gotten partner within the past couple months that stream the games that I do like Fortnite for an example. Just because I don't have a face cam does not mean I am any less professional or don't plan on getting one. The main thing that truly disturbs me is that I HAVE TO WAIT 90 DAYS TO REAPPLY?!?! Especially during summertime which is the most important time for streamers?! This is my 3rd time applying and this is the only time where I felt the most confident about applying, and the most I ever had to wait to reapply was for 30 days so why 90 now?
I take streaming very seriously, I put nothing but love and time into my channel and I know other streamers do too! I feel like I am a joke, I'm not being taking seriously even those I overachieved the requirements, and that I'm wasting my time even writing this, but if I'm not I ask if a different reviewer takes another look at my VOD, and to change the partnership process! I still have some hope, and If anything good can come from this I suggest adding back the appeal process and adding a more comprehensive email as to why the streamer was denied to prevent these unpleasant experiences we have to go through. The generic email response you receive when you get denied needs to go away altogether, or at least for those who have applied multiple times. We deserve personalized feedback. I also recommend that followers can present a reference on why they think that streamer should be partnered when they apply for partnership.
The picture below shows VOD my analytics when streaming during the review, and streaming last month( mostly streamed GTA) and thank you to those who have taking the time out and reading this.

I'm OgSavageKitty and there has been clearly a huge mistake here! I haven't stream Fortnite ONCE in the past 2 months! (but when I use to I never got this "audience growth" before because my CCU was fine) I have been only streaming Overwatch which is not a top 10 game, and when I stream Overwatch I am in the top 5. "Partners should be leading the pack in their genre, as a general rule. You don't have to be in the top 5 (though if you are, please reach out to us!)" which I have. I already email them and they said to write a feedback on here which I really didn't want to resort back to.

Hi,

Recently I was denied for partnership (and I am OK with it).

What I felt was a bit rough was the reason.

As I usually play Realm Royale or Paladins, the minimum required CCU for those games to be considered for partnership is 30+

I live in New Zealand (GMT +12/+13) when I start streaming at 9pm it is 4am EST and 8am GMT. 80% of Mixers viewer population is asleep or commuting to school/work where some are unable to view Mixer streams.

Considering I have peak at 70+ for Paladins and 40+ Realm for, I have been doing really well.

I am consistently in the top 5 of the Realm/Paladins category, and have been in the #1 spot frequently with less than the required average.

That said, there are partners streaming Realm/Paladins during this time who are not meeting 30+ CCV for the same reason.

I really think timezones (and similar considerations) need to be taken into consideration when reviewing partnership applications.

It's not an apples for apples comparison when you are being measured aginst streams that are streaming these games during Mixer "prime time" when the majority of viewers are consuming the site.

Thoughts?

No this is not a rant about being denied Partnership for the 4th time, it is a request that Honesty and Transparency be brought to the Partnership Program, this request is based on FACTS, and publicly available analytics.

1) My first partnership application I meet all CCU requirements, but was denied for "not having graphics in my profile" Which is not even a published requirement, and BTW I did have graphics.

2) My second and third applications were denied for not meeting the minimum CCU requirements, and in both denials a specific CCU was quoted as what was needed, and according to the stats sent back to me by Mixer I missed those requirements by 1,

3) my fourth application I was denied for not meeting CCU. Which by the data is obviously not the reason for denial.

Mixer announces NEW partners every week on the LevelUpCast, when comparing my CCU to other channels partnered in the same review period my CCU is higher than most of these channels.

For example my 30 day CCU for this period was 38, however one person was partnered with a 30 day CCU of 19 a 14 day CCU of 16 which is actually below the published ABSOLUTE minimum of a Partnership application, which is a CCU of 20.

Almost all the other channels partnered in the same period had a CCU of 30 to 36 still lower than my CCU for the same review period.

So in summary I met all CCU requirements on my first application on my 4th application I met the specific CCU requirements laid out in Denial 2 and 3 by Mixer Staff.

I had a CCU greater than 70% of the approved channels in the same review period as my channel, most of the other channels were transfers from other platforms of streamers with very high followers, for example one channel was partnered in this period that never streamed on Mixer but has a YT Channel with over 100k followers.

I have been on Mixer for one year, have over 10,000 followers, I am ranked 892nd in followers on Mixer according to Socialblade, meaning I have more followers than hundreds of already partnered channels.

I consistently I have a higher CCU than hundreds of currently Partnered Channels, and again a higher CCU than other channels partnered in the same time period as my applications.

So I have to ask to please provide full transparency and honesty in the partnership application process, because being denied for a low CCU, does not make sense when analyzing all CCU metrics for my channel against other channels.

And since the appeal process has been removed, there is no way for a streamer to open a dialog with Mixer, to discuss these concerns.

Thank you,
MrPanda417

Hi Mixer,

My Streaming name is DannyZooko86 and I applied for partner 5 days ago. I was informed I did not have enough viewers in my channel at the time of review and that I should be leading the top of the catagory.

Now I am a Paladins Streamer, I dont know if you have noticed but out of the top 8 streams no 1 is the paladins channel and then the next 5 - 6 are 24/7 farming stream in which combined have over 1100 viewers sitting in the channels talking about f2f and I even saw someone put a twitch handle for people to go to.

So how can I get past these, all these people are doing theoretically are pretty much denying all the other streamers of getting viewers. They are not even playing the game which makes it worse, just music and writing that's all you get.

I am usually in top 8 of live streamers with viewers on average about 20-30 in which is very good for a non partnered streamer. So in theory taking out the 5-6 farming streams, I am in the top 3 of live streams.

Even if I dont get an appeal out of this I am hoping you see that farming streams hurt content creators from having a shot at partner on Mixer and it takes away potential new viewers in streams, making it more difficult to meet requirements.

Thank you for taking the time to read my message and I am hoping for a turn of decision or a response from you guys giving an explanation.

Hello Mixer and community, I was a little upset with the new Mixer requirement that got released. I have been streaming for almost 2 years and with 11,800 follows and really wanted to be part of the Mixer Partnership Program. So, the new requirement is saying I have to be eight-teen and that will take 5 more years until I can be a partner. Also, I am upset since I feel like I am missing out on all the new things and just not special or good to be a broadcaster. It also took Mixer 17 days for a response for my application to be reviewed and nothing about my review process. Please remove this requirement. Thanks, Owen

The current Partner requirements are fantastic. It's something to work for. 2,000 followers is easily obtainable if you're willing to put in the work.

I think personally having Mixer Affiliate program would also benefit Mixer as more people may come to the platform.

Here is what I'd like to see the Affiliate program requirements at;
2 months old account
500 or 1000 followers
7 unique days per month
15 hours per month

Being monetized shouldn't be handed out easily. You have to put in work. I know a lot of people are going to say otherwise but why should Mixer give out such exclusivity for people who aren't going to put in the hours and work.

Since mixer has a far smaller view base the partnership program doesn’t really encourage progression since it’s far to hard to reach the minimum requirements when only a few people can manage them day to day. Would it be possible to lower the requirements or possible have a affiliation program as a stepping stone. I really hate to see potential streamers leave the site for twitchs program. I myself, would have already almost pasted twitch’s affiliate program had my analytics been on twitch instead of mixer. The mixer program could be something like around 100 followers and around 10 viewers with 20 hours or more streamed. Something like this could encourage a whole new generation of streamers to begin on Xbox. For the current state of mixer the requirements are just unattainable, especially the concurrent viewers. For a platform like twitch many people have more than 50 viewers but for mixer only the top 40 or so on the platform can manage. Pls consider this proposal for the future of the community

Bonjour,

Au nom des futurs demandeurs de partenaire sur mixer du côté Francophone (Français).

Plusieurs diffuseurs sur mixer on atteint le premier objectif pour la demande de partenariat. Hors lors de leur demande, la plus part on été refusé suite à un nombre de spectateurs non atteint.

Hors, je trouve cela dommage d'imposser des demandes de spectateurs qui ne prend pas en compte leurs régions de diffusion.

Pour les Français il est tres compliqué de monter à 40/60 spectateurs simultanés. Même certain de vos partenaires actuels n'arrivent pas à atteindre ce nombre de spectateurs, ou d’avoir une communauté active sur le tchat et leur live.

Nous aimerions comprendre les raisons des refus plus détaillée
Nous aimerions également que les demandes de partenariats soient plus juste et selon des statistiques de leurs régions
Voir le travail effectué par certains diffuseurs qui encouragent et aident la communauté francophone.
Voir plutot les conditions de stream et les implications des diffuseurs, plutot que leurs stats de vues et leurs jeux (Car certain jeux en tendance sont une aide auprès de ces streameurs)
Proposer au spectateur francophone de repondre à l'attente de voir leurs streameurs francophone avancer sur Mixer
Donner envie aux personnes de rester sur Mixer, faire vivre la plateforme en dehors du territoire US.
Regarder egalement ceux qui répondent au Mixer Academy, alors que le site n’est pas traduit en français.

Mixer est une plateforme qui a beaucoup de potentiel et de possibilités. Encourager ces diffuseurs francophones sur mixer d'avancer avec vous ! Aider les à promouvoir votre plateforme, d'avancer main dans la main !

A ce jour vous avez plusieur streameurs qui aimeraient avoir votre soutien, vos encouragements et votre savoir qui est l'écoute de la communauté pour avancer.

Regarder ces diffuseurs, regarder leurs progrès, leurs passion et leurs dévouement pour cette plateforme.

A ce jour la demande de partenariat est d’être plus à l'écoute et de mieux gérer chez votre concurrence. Il ne se base pas sur des stats uniques, mais des stats selon leurs régions et leur travail accompli.

Mixer à beaucoup de francophone qui crois en eux ! Montrer enfin que vous croyez en eux également !

En esperant obtenir une réponse de votre part, en espérant pouvoir aider ces streameurs dont je suis également, Qui malgré le refus et le fait de savoir qu'ils n'arriverons pas à monter aussi haut en terme de vues. Ils continuent encore et croient encore en vous et la plateforme.

Merci de votre soutien, en esperant obtenir une réponse à leur problématique et également voir le soutien de leurs communautés envers ce message.

Merci

Good morning, sir,

On behalf of the future applicants for a partner on mixer on the French side (French)

Several presenters on mixer have reached the first objective for the partnership application. However, most of them have been refused due to an unmet number of spectators.

However, I think it's a shame to impose requests from spectators that don't take into account their broadcasting regions.

For the French it is very complicated to reach 40/60 simultaneous spectators. Even some of your current partners are not able to reach this number of spectators, or to have an active community on the chat and their live.

We would like to understand the reasons for the refusals in more detail.
We would also like the partnership applications to be fairer and based on statistics from their regions.
See the work done by some broadcasters who encourage and assist the Francophone community.
See rather the streaming conditions and the implications of the broadcasters, rather than their stats and games (because some trendy games are a help to these streameurs).
Propose to the French-speaking audience to respond to the expectation to see their French-speaking streameurs advancing on Mixer
Make people want to stay on Mixer, make the platform live outside the US.
Watch also those who respond to the Mixer Academy, even though the site is not translated into French.

Mixer is a platform with a lot of potential and possibilities. Encourage these French-speaking broadcasters on Mixer to move forward with you! Help them to promote your platform, to move forward hand in hand!

To date you have several streameurs who would like to have your support, your encouragement and your knowledge which is listening to the community to move forward.

Watch these broadcasters, watch their progress, their passion and dedication to this platform.

To date the demand for partnership is to be more attentive and better manage at your competition. It is not based on unique stats, but stats according to their regions and their work.

Mix to many French speaking people who believe in them! Finally show that you believe in them too!

Hoping to get an answer from you, hoping to be able to help these streameurs of which I am also one, who despite the refusal and the knowledge that they will not manage to climb so high in terms of views. They still continue and still believe in you and the platform.

Thank you for your support, hoping to get an answer to their problems and also to see the support of their communities towards this message.

Thank you

Hi all, I am LandoCalstonian and I feel like I was recently unfairly denied for partnership on the grounds of my "Channel Details". The denied email went on to explain that I needed a channel description, a schedule, and links to my social in my channels info. Ill post pictures to prove otherwise. Regardless of the denied application. I truly think that application appeal should be brought back for this very reason. I clearly have everything mentioned in the email multiple times over and would really like the opportunity to appeal or at least receive a more personalized reason of why I was denied.

With that being said, even if my channel details were not there, I think this is a small and easy fix and does not warrant the 90 day wait to reapply. I think there should be levels of denied applications. Levels possibly like "Light work needed" for 30 days, "Moderate work needed" for 60 days, and "Heavy work needed" for 90 days. This will help content creators also know exactly how close they may be in becoming partnered and will help them see improvement if they are denied for 90 days the first time but only 30 days the second time.

Anyways, thank you to everyone that has read this and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Hello. I have been watching streams for 5-6 years. All along these timeline, turkish native streaming community had a very significant growth rate. There are strong streamers with 10k+, tens of 2k - 10k, and so so many around 1k. Current situation of leading streaming platform of twitch is making very unconfortable for many streamers. Currently everyone is complaining about
-Twitch doesnt have servers in Turkey
-Twitch Turkey Staff is not behaving streamers in a way people would like to be
-Twitch's cut

Currently there is a Facebook hype started in Turkish streaming community. After a Turkish streamer got banned in Turkey with no explanation, he moved to facebook. Than facebook gaming started to make big big contracts to Turkish streamers. Also people telling that facebook has good strong servers. Nowadays every streamer is talking about moving to Facebook or staying at twitch because twitch started to make counter-offers. The thing that bothers me everyone ignoring Mixer as they got no offer, or mixer has no servers or agency in Turkey. So I'm curious is mixer going to ignore Turkish streaming community while there is a big unconfort and unhappiness at twitch streamers. I feel like this is the perfect moment where a strong flow from twitch to other platforms is starting, but I'm unhappy that mixer is being ignored in that flow. When I check mixer for whether I would like to stream or watch here, I really saw a stronger future than twitch or facebook, but current relationship between turkish community and mixer seems very weak. I hope you act fast enough to take a place here.

There HAS to be an Affiliate program.

Twitch has proven by adding an affiliate program that both they and their streamers make more of an income. The biggest negative feedback to the affiliate program was by the Twitch Partners who felt that this detracted form their possible sub's. There is no evidence of this as all streamers have variation in sub's and that can not be tied directly together.

Affiliates would get the ability to receive "Embers", a Sub button, a generic contact for mixer support, and a little bit of advertisement form Mixer would hurt. (ex. Channel two which showcases one affiliate a day and does not provide an increase in sparks like channel one.)

Partners would still have a personal contact at Mixer, still get all of the same current benefits like the ability to make money from advertisements, game/features purchased through their channel, sparks and everything else they already have.

This would allow smaller streamers to still make advancements as streamers and also increase income to Mixer. As an example without a feature or Channel one which is filled with lurkers farming Sparks almost ALL partners average 15-30 concurrent viewers throughout their stream.. This means they average (12K-25K followers) less than 1% concurrent viewers without the help of mixer. Where as non partnered streamers below 2k generally average the same if not a higher percentage. there is no fiscal reason as to why Affiliate would be a bad program to introduce. The only down side will be how partners feel about it and if Partners disagree with the program not only has Twitch shown it doesn't affect their partners, but it would also show that Mixer partners really don't care about growth of the community, but only of their channel.
