Frequently asked questions.
What are the exact requirements?
Creators need 5,000 followers, an average of 30 viewers over the last 30 days, at least 12 streams a month with controller gameplay and three months of regular streaming. Organizations need a Discord server with 2,500 members, at least 20 rostered players who stream on controller and an active competitive presence.
I am just under the requirements. Should I still apply?
Yes, if you are close. We also look at how quickly your channel is growing, how regularly you stream and how well a controller overlay fits your content. We read every ticket.
How do you check my numbers?
From your public channel and server: follower count, the average viewers shown on your recent streams and your Discord member count. We never ask for account access or private analytics.
Which platforms do you accept?
Twitch, YouTube, Kick and TikTok Live. The follower and viewer requirements apply to the platform you stream on most. If you are active on several, tell us and we will look at them together.
Is the partner program free?
Yes. Joining costs nothing, with no minimum term and no exclusivity. In return, we ask creators to keep their code in their bio and to post one clip a month that shows their overlay.
Do I need to test an overlay before applying?
Yes. Create a Padcraft account, choose one of the free designs in the shop and use it on a live stream. Your ticket should confirm that it displays correctly with your setup, so that we do not build a partnership around an overlay your streaming software cannot show.
How are commissions calculated?
Commission applies to the eligible amount paid with your code, after discounts and excluding taxes, refunds and payment processing fees. Earnings are added once payment is confirmed.
Can I leave the partnership?
Yes. You can leave whenever you want, and all commission already earned remains yours.
When does the Padcraft animation appear?
The discreet animation appears only after 30 seconds of controller inactivity, never while you are playing. Organization overlays can also display a custom team animation in the same area.
