Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Subi.
What is Subi?
Subi is a free Chrome extension that shows no intrusive ads while you watch Twitch streams. Every ad you see earns you credits, which you can redeem for gifted Tier 1 subscriptions to any channel.
How do I earn credits?
Install the extension, connect your Twitch account, and watch streams as usual. Subi automatically counts the ads shown during your session and adds credits to your balance, its that simple no extra steps needed.
How many credits do I need to redeem a gifted sub?
1,000 credits = 1 gifted Tier 1 subscription. The number of credits you earn per session depends on how many ads run during your watch time. and max 60 credits per day. (done in around 1 hour of watching)
Can I gift a sub to any channel?
Yes. When redeeming, you enter any Twitch channel name and a gifted sub will be sent there on your behalf. its currently done manually (so it can take a little time to process).
Is the extension free?
Completely free. There are no premium tiers, no subscriptions, and no hidden costs. Advertisers fund the rewards and the extension itself.
What kind of ads does Subi show?
Subi shows small, non-intrusive banner ads below the video player, a pinned banner at the top of chat, or an inline card in the chat feed. Ads never interrupt your stream and never play audio. (and no intrusive ads like popups or notifications)
How are ads chosen?
Advertisers bid in a real-time auction for each placement. The highest bidder will be displayed more often in the placement than the others.
Is my Twitch data safe?
Subi only reads your public Twitch username and avatar to create your account. We never access your Twitch password, payment info, or private messages. See our Privacy Policy for full details. (we do not store any of your data on our servers)
Can I pause or uninstall the extension?
Yes, at any time. Your credit balance is saved to your account and will be there when you return. Uninstalling just stops new credits from accruing. (you can always reinstall the extension to start earning again)
