Chances are you’ve come to this article for one of two reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. You’re a streamer and you’ve received gifted subs in your stream<\/strong><\/li>
  2. You’ve been watching your favourite streamer and received a gifted sub<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Either way, I’m going to explain what they are, how you can get them and how you can gift them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What Are Twitch Gifted Subs?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Gifted subs on Twitch are subscriptions that have been gifted to other viewers by someone in your chat. Viewers not only have the ability to subscribe for themselves but can choose to gift subscriptions to other viewers. They can do this at random or choose specific people for gifted subs to go to.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you’re a streamer and you’ve received gifted subs on your stream this means that a viewer has gifted subs to your community. They can choose to gift subs to just random people or they can gift to specific viewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Gifted subs last for 30 days after they were gifted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. On the stream you want to gift subs head down to the Subscribe button (If you have already subscribed you will see a Gift a sub button) Click the button to bring up the subscription options menu.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          2. Finish off your purchase by continuing to the order page and completing your order.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
