As of late the platform that has been creating news is Kick. The new and popularized streaming space has become the talk of the town as it outrightly rivals Amazon-owned Twitch. Pioneered by popular streamer Trainwreckstv, Kick is stated to bring more freedom to a streamer compared to its competition out there.

Though recently there have been some mishaps in that regard, especially in the case of their partnered streamer Adin Ross.

Now, Ninja, the Fortnite sensation has also come forth questioning certain aspects of Kick and its revenue system.

Ninja on the instability of kick revenue

A trend that has been seen on social media since the launch of Kick was people posting about its revenue system. Many streamers who found a new home in Kick have been appreciative of the platform. Especially its revenue sharing, which supposedly is favored more towards the streamer than the platform.

But soon after people started posting the revenue they made from Kick, there arose tons of questions. The main one was about the origin of these revenues. That is, people were pointing out that most revenue is generated from subs, which may vary from time to time. People have pointed out that more than 90% of the revenue that the streamers generate comes from subs, posing the question of stability.

Ninja, the renowned Fortnite streamer now has joined the mix to talk more about this. He is not against the new streaming platform but calls the generated revenue to be unstable. Moreover, he finds that most of the revenue that is generated by a streamer on the platform comes from subs.

Though the revenue charts streamers post shows the potential of how much a person can earn on Kick, the chances of receiving the same amount of subs each month are quite questionable. He states that this is ‘incredibly unstable’, and he feels that many streamers will get a ‘reality check ‘ soon after the subs narrow down.

Many netizens think along the same lines. Though the streamers have switched to a newer platform, the main question lies elsewhere. That is, whether the viewers are ready to switch the platform.

Twitch, though criticized for its revenue sharing, is considered a much safer haven than Kick.

But Trainwreckstv came in to clarify this aspect. He stated that there is some sort of glitch that is causing the revenue chart to show a more heavily favored sub-count. He expects that with the next update, this issue is resolved and the world can see what Kick offers regarding finance.
