What’s the Easiest Way to Run a Twitch Giveaway?

Run a Gleam Competition with Twitch Actions and share the link on stream. We check Twitch follows and subscriptions with Twitch, so you don't have to count chat messages by hand.

1. Start from our Twitch Giveaway Template, or create a Competition and set your prize and end date.
2. On the How to Enter tab, add Follow on Twitch and type your Channel Name.

3. For a subscribers-only giveaway, add Twitch Subscriber Entry (Hobby Plan and above). Subscribing costs money, so switch on A Purchase or Donation is Required to Complete This Action and we add a free entry alternative where the law requires one.
4. Put the landing page link in a chat command, your panels and your overlay, and say it out loud a few times.
5. When it ends, draw winners on the Winners tab, live on stream if you like.

A chat keyword draw works for a quick one-off, but it can't check follows or collect emails. The Twitch Actions doc covers Channel Points too, and our Twitch giveaway guide covers Twitch's rules.
