How to Subscribe to a Streamer on Twitch on Desktop

On Twitch, subscribing to a channel is an excellent way to show support for the broadcaster while also gaining access to benefits that are exclusive to that channel, such as emotes or badges. When you sign up for Prime Gaming, which was formerly known as Twitch Prime, you are given one free subscription that can be used whenever you choose each month. But even if you don’t have Prime Gaming or if you’ve already used up your free trial, you can still subscribe to a streamer like Twitch or Amazon Prime Video.

The procedure is straightforward and shouldn’t take more than a few minutes to complete. This guide will walk you through utilizing the website to subscribe to a streamer on Twitch, whether you have Prime Gaming or not.
