How do you get paid for advertising on your stream?

Streamed Saturday. Paid Friday. When a flight delivers, the money settles into your Publsh balance, and payouts leave every Friday, spendable straight away on your card or moved to your bank. Same on Kick and Twitch.

The weekly rhythm

Anything that settles before the Tuesday cutoff joins that Friday's payout. You don't chase an invoice, wait on a brand's finance team, or wonder when it clears. The schedule is fixed and the same for everyone.

Paid for what actually ran

You're paid on delivered viewer-seconds. On Kick that's measured from our own logs; on Twitch it's the estimated delivery until metering covers it. If a flight underdelivers, you're paid for what ran. There's no clawback drama and nothing to argue about, because the number came from the serving log, not a promise.

Your money, two ways

Earnings land in your Publsh balance the moment a flight settles. Spend it immediately on your Publsh card, or move it to your bank on the weekly payday. Both are free, and you're never steered toward one.

What you keep

A flat 12.5% platform fee, or 8% as a founding creator. No agency cut, no payout fee, no minimum you have to hit before you see a cent.

The whole point: the thing that earned the money is the thing you can spend from tonight.

Frequently asked

On Publsh, delivered earnings settle to your balance and pay out every Friday (anything settled before the Tuesday cutoff joins that payday). You can spend the balance instantly on a Publsh card or move it to your bank for free, keeping 87.5–92% after the platform fee. It works the same on Kick and Twitch.
