How to Subscribe with Twitch Prime on Mobile?

Subscribing to a Twitch channel using Twitch Prime on mobile is quite simple.

Certainly, you will need some instructions before attempting it yourself, but based on our experience, everyone eventually masters it.

Twitch Prime on Mobile

To use the Twitch Prime subscription, follow these steps:

  • Open the Twitch app on your mobile device.
  • Navigate to the Twitch account you wish to subscribe to.
  • You can decide whether to proceed to the channel page or the ongoing stream.
  • If you choose the channel page, click the "Subscribe" option located at the top of the page (in the white box).
  • If you opt for the stream, tap the purple "Subscribe" button located below the video.
  • If the "Subscribe" button is not visible, tap on the video, and a menu will appear. Click the "Subscribe" option at the bottom and confirm your channel subscription.
  • After completing the previous steps, you will be prompted to select how many tokens you want to purchase.
  • The "Sub Token" is valid for one month. Therefore, if you want to subscribe to a Twitch account for four months, you will need to buy four Sub Tokens.
  • Once you select the duration for which you want to remain subscribed and enable auto-renewal, tap on the "Purchase Sub Tokens" option.
  • Confirm your selection.
  • Enter your payment information and confirm your purchase again.

Once you complete all the aforementioned tasks, your subscription benefits will be unlocked, allowing you to use them.

Donate a Complimentary Subscription

Twitch is centered on self-expression and collaboration with other members of the community.

We strongly encourage you to assist and celebrate others.

Specifically, one of the subscription options, if you are already subscribed to a preferred channel, is to purchase a monthly subscription again.

When you purchase active subscriptions (or a subscription) again, you can donate them (or it) to a specific Twitch user or to the community of your favorite streamer.

To gift a subscription, you must complete the following steps:

  • Open your Twitch mobile app.
  • Go to the search bar and look for the specific channel you want to subscribe to again.
  • Tap on the ongoing stream.
  • Select the "Subscribe" option from the menu that appears.
  • Since you have already subscribed to the channel, the option called "Gift a sub" will be available.
  • Tap on the package you wish to purchase.
  • You can choose between 1 sub or 5, 10, 25, or 50 subs.
  • After selecting the subscription package you want to donate, enter the name of the user you wish to surprise or simply donate it to the community of your favorite streamer.
  • Review the payment details and confirm your purchase.

Once you complete the steps mentioned above, the community or a specific user will receive at least one free subscription, or even a Twitch subscription for several months.

Twitch Prime Membership Benefits

The Twitch Prime membership holds significant value for streamers as it provides a reliable source of support and funding for their channels.

The price of a monthly subscription to a channel via Twitch Prime ranges from 4 to 5 dollars, depending on your location.

On the other hand, Twitch Prime subscribers also gain access to great benefits.

Twitch Prime Membership Benefits

A Twitch Prime subscription provides access to bonus games, in-game loot, chat privileges, ad-free viewing, a Twitch Prime subscriber badge, and many other benefits...

Today, obtaining Twitch Prime is simple; you only need an Amazon Prime account or an Amazon Prime Video membership.

Additionally, each month you receive a complimentary Twitch channel subscription.

This is a fairly exclusive benefit that you can utilize on one specific channel each month.

If you do not have either of the two accounts mentioned, you will need to sign up without a linked Prime account.

In conclusion, it can be stated that Twitch Prime serves as an added benefit for Amazon Prime users, and we have observed that its straightforward setup process often leads many Amazon users to Twitch.

FAQ

Why am I having problems on iOS with Sub Tokens?

Twitch is currently replacing its sub tokens with a recurring subscription. This change aims to eliminate confusion for Twitch Prime users when using the app on desktop or the website. Unfortunately, some functional issues may still arise for now.

Why does the Twitch Prime subscription cost more for smartphone devices?

This is because Twitch aims to provide a fair price to streamers and content creators. To achieve this, they need to incorporate an additional cost for the Prime subscription.

Twitch administration also recognizes that individuals who choose the Twitch Prime subscription want to support their favorite streamers; otherwise, they would not pay the extra cost. Additionally, app stores often impose extra charges for their services, which is reflected in the pricing as well.

What happens if I have subscribed to a channel using Tokens while a recurring subscription was available?

You do not need to worry. Your subscription will remain valid until your Tokens expire. However, once the Tokens expire, you will transition to a recurring subscription as a regular subscription.

Can I reactivate my subscription if I have canceled it by mistake?

Yes, you can. However, you will not be able to reactivate it immediately. You should re-subscribe and wait a few days; afterward, the Twitch administration will reactivate your account.

Conclusion

Overall, the Twitch Prime account or Prime membership is highly beneficial.

You gain access to various additional features, and by paying the subscription fee, you directly support your favorite content creator and their account.

Thanks to our smartphones, we can now follow every new video or stream wherever we are.

We hope you will fully utilize this benefit and find this article helpful.
