Twitch Will Let Viewers Pay to Pin Their Messages in Streamers’ Chats
With Hype Chat, viewers have a new way to get their messages to stand out and reach streamers. As explained by Twitch, each Hype Chat message will be featured in a pin on top of the chat. The design, character length, and duration of the pin will depend on how much a viewer spends. Higher value Hype Chats will stay pinned on the chat longer and have a more distinctive design.“Live moves fast. Partners, you have a lot going on while you’re streaming.
Hype Chat will live alongside other Twitch monetization features, including subscriptions, gifts, and Bits.

Hype Chats from banned users are also not allowed.
