Lower subscription prices are helping creators and viewers build a vibrant community together,” Twitch says in a statement about its local pricing.
In Spain, the subscription price goes from 4.99 euros to 3.99 euros , so content creators in our country will have to get more subscribers to earn the same as they do now. "I assume that we will earn less money, but it was much more unfair that in countries with a worse economy it cost the same as in the United States, so I'm glad," says streamer Alexelcapo, as reported by El Confidencial.
Twitch cites the numbers to justify its decision: The percentage of active users in Europe or Asia who support creators with a subscription is about 50% lower than in North America. In Latin America, it is almost 80% lower. Until now, the price of Tier 1 subscriptions on the website was around $4.99 in all countries. “ This price makes it difficult for many viewers to support their favorite creators , and in the same way, it prevents creators from growing their communities, creating more content, and welcoming new fans,” the platform says.
Prices have been reduced in Mexico, Turkey, Latin America, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Europe , while prices have remained the same in the United States, Canada, Japan, Israel and Switzerland. You can check the new prices at this link .
