The better the sub badge, the more likely your viewers will want to subscribe.
Are you a new Twitch affiliate? A new Twitch partner? Well, in this post, we are gonna share with you the best places where you can get your custom Twitch sub badges, and also custom Cheering Chat Badges (Bits badges).
What are Twitch sub badges?
Twitch subscriber badges, sub badges, or loyalty badges are badges that are automatically displayed next to usernames in your chat when they subscribe (not follow) to your channel, allowing them to stand out in the chat and be recognized for their strong financial support. Streamers can make these badges available to their communities once they have reached affiliate or the partner program.
These badges are available in different tiers. The longer someone is subscribed to your channel (and thus pays), the more epic the badge should become. Customizing your sub-tier badges can make your stream more special for viewers that support you.
There is also the Badge Flair, a special flair overlaid over the top of the Tier 2 or Tier 3 viewer’s subscription badge.
