Many people on Twitch stream as a hobby. If you’re thinking about going full-time, though, you’ll need to raise some cash. Setting up donations on Twitch is one way you can do it!

Twitch上的许多人都将其作为爱好。 但是，如果您打算全职工作，则需要筹集一些现金。 在Twitch上设置捐款是您可以做到的一种方式！

Along with Twitch’s built-in subscription service, some streamers can accept donations using the platform’s built-in currency (Bits), which is purchased with real money.

连同Twitch的内置订阅服务，一些直播者可以使用平台的内置货币(Bits)接受捐赠，该货币是用真钱购买的。

If you don’t want Twitch taking a cut of your donations, or you’re unable to accept subscriptions or Bits, you’ll need to look at other methods. PayPal is one of the best ways, but there are other third-party donation services that make it easy for people to send you some cash.

如果您不希望Twitch削减捐款，或者您无法接受订阅或Bits，则需要考虑其他方法。 贝宝(PayPal)是最好的方法之一，但是还有其他第三方捐赠服务可以使人们轻松地向您发送现金。

抽搐位和订阅：官方方法 (Twitch Bits and Subscriptions: The Official Method)

As we mentioned above, Twitch offers two methods for people to support streamers by sending them cash: subscriptions, and Bits.

如上所述，Twitch为人们提供了两种方法，通过向他们发送现金来支持彩带： subscriptions和Bits。

Subscriptions allow people to “subscribe” to a channel as a paid member. This gives them additional benefits, such as subscription-only chat emotes. Whenever someone subscribes, you’ll be notified so you can recognize and/or thank that person for their support.

订阅使人们能够以付费会员的身份“订阅”频道。 这给他们带来了更多好处，例如仅订阅聊天表情。 每当有人订阅时，系统都会通知您，以便您识别和/或感谢该人的支持。

People can also donate at random with Twitch Bits. They buy this built-in currency with real money, and can then send it to a streamer by using the cheer command in that person’s Twitch chat room.

人们还可以使用Twitch Bits随机捐赠。 他们用真钱购买了这种内置货币，然后可以使用该人的Twitch聊天室中的cheer命令将其发送到彩带。

This doesn’t really buy the sender any benefits, but you can recognize donations in-stream. You’ll also see an extra emphasis on any chat messages that contain the cheer command, making it a good way to interact with your audience.

这实际上并不能给发送者带来任何好处，但是您可以识别插播广告中的捐赠。 您还将看到对包含cheer命令的任何聊天消息的额外重视，这是与观众互动的好方法。

You have to be a Twitch Affiliate or Partner to accept these, however. Also, even if you can accept bits or subscriptions, Twitch takes a percentage to help support the service.

您必须是Twitch的会员或合作伙伴才能接受。 另外，即使您可以接受比特或订阅，Twitch也会花费一定百分比来帮助支持该服务。

Bits and subscriptions are accepted and enabled automatically on your channel as soon as you reach Twitch Affiliate status and set up your payment settings. However, you can tweak the donation settings in your Twitch channel dashboard.

达到Twitch会员状态并设置付款设置后，就会在您的频道上自动接受并启用比特和订阅。 但是，您可以在Twitch频道信息中心中调整捐赠设置。

使用第三方捐赠服务 (Using Third-Party Donation Services)

Twitch streamers who don’t have Affiliate or Partner status are unable to accept payments or financial support directly through Twitch.

没有会员或合作伙伴身份的Twitch流媒体无法直接通过Twitch接受付款或财务支持。

However, you can use third-parties to bring donations to your channel. Services like Streamlabs and Muxy allow you to expand your channel with additional payment options outside of Twitch.

但是，您可以使用第三方将捐款带入您的频道。 Streamlabs和Muxy等服务可让您在Twitch之外使用其他付款方式来扩展频道。

If you use Streamlabs, you can add a donation option from the Streamlabs dashboard. To get started, click “Settings” in the menu on the left.

如果您使用Streamlabs，则可以从Streamlabs仪表板添加捐赠选项。 首先，请点击左侧菜单中的“设置”。

Go to Donation Settings > Methods to add your own payment accounts, including PayPal, Skrill, or a credit card.

转到“捐赠设置”>“方法”以添加您自己的支付帐户，包括PayPal，Skrill或信用卡。

Select your preferred method for payment, and then follow the onscreen instructions.

选择首选的付款方式，然后按照屏幕上的说明进行操作。

You can change the currency, minimum donation amount, and other settings for Streamlabs under Donation Settings > Settings.

您可以在“捐赠设置”>“设置”下更改Streamlabs的货币，最低捐赠金额和其他设置。

Once you have a payment method (or multiple methods) active on your Streamlabs account, other people on Twitch can donate to you directly via your Streamlabs tip page. The link appears prominently under “Donations Settings.”

一旦您在Streamlabs帐户上启用了付款方式(或多种方式)，Twitch上的其他人就可以直接通过您的Streamlabs提示页向您捐款。 该链接突出显示在“捐款设置”下。

Anyone who views your stream can donate to you directly via that page. You’ll need to advertise the link during your stream, though, to let people know how they can donate.

查看您的信息流的任何人都可以直接通过该页面向您捐款。 不过，您需要在您的信息流中宣传该链接，以使人们知道他们可以如何捐款。

添加贝宝捐赠链接 (Adding a PayPal Donation Link)

You can also drop a simple PayPal donation button or PayPal.me link in your channel description. This allows people on Twitch with a PayPal account to send donations directly to your account.

您也可以在频道说明中放置一个简单的PayPal捐赠按钮或PayPal.me链接。 这使Twitch上拥有PayPal帐户的人可以将捐款直接发送到您的帐户。

To change your channel description, head to the Twitch website, and then click your channel icon at the top right. Select “Channel” from the drop-down menu to access your Twitch channel page.

要更改频道说明，请访问Twitch网站，然后单击右上角的频道图标。 从下拉菜单中选择“频道”以访问您的Twitch频道页面。

Click “About,” and then toggle-On the “Edit Panels” option.

单击“关于”，然后打开“编辑面板”选项。

Click the large add button that appears below it, and then select the “Add a Text or Image Panel” option. Give the panel a name and make sure you link your PayPal donation information here.

单击其下方显示的大添加按钮，然后选择“添加文本或图像面板”选项。 为面板命名，并确保在此处链接您的PayPal捐赠信息。

Once you’re done, click “Submit.”

完成后，点击“提交”。

A PayPal link or button will be added to your Twitch profile. Anyone who wants to donate can now click the link or button and send you money directly.

PayPal链接或按钮将添加到您的Twitch个人资料中。 现在，任何想要捐款的人都可以单击链接或按钮，直接向您汇款。

Keep in mind that PayPal will charge a fee for any donations you receive, as well as conversion fees for donations made in other currencies.

请记住，PayPal将对您收到的任何捐赠收取费用，并对以其他货币进行的捐赠收取转换费。
