How to make more money streaming Minecraft

Minecraft streamers can earn more by letting viewers play along with challenges, speedruns and survival runs. IMPAKT connects through IMPAKT Link, a small Windows app that reads the game and reports events, and pays the streamer 25 per cent of the coins spent in their channel plus 40 per cent of the house share.

Why does Minecraft suit audience rounds?

Minecraft streams are full of open questions: will the streamer survive the night, reach the Nether, beat the dragon, find diamonds in ten minutes? Viewers already guess in chat. IMPAKT gives those guesses a countdown and a result.

How does IMPAKT connect to Minecraft?

Minecraft has no Game State Integration, so IMPAKT uses IMPAKT Link, a small Windows app on your PC. It reads the game and reports events. Rounds settle from what the game reports, not from the streamer's word.

1. Create a channel. 2. Install IMPAKT Link. 3. Start your world. Rounds open with a countdown drawn into the video.

What can viewers play?

• Votes: where to dig, or which biome to explore.
• Predictions: YES/NO markets such as "Does the streamer survive the night?", with cash out.
• Bets on the round: whether a challenge is completed.
• Bids for actions: viewers bid to choose the next task.

Viewers play with IMPAKT coins. 100 coins equal 1 US dollar when bought. Coins have no cash value and cannot be withdrawn. Daily free coins are available.

How does the streamer earn?

The streamer receives 25 per cent of the coins viewers spend in their channel, plus 40 per cent of the house share on rounds settled there. Free to start. Estimate with the earnings calculator.

Does it work on Kick and Twitch?

Yes. On Kick, viewers use !yes and !no, the official app, or your Kick live page at impaktlive.tv/kick/your-channel. On Twitch, the chat bot is live and the extension is in review. See how streamers make more money.
