Kick & OTK's new time-limited program offers fast-track partnership

Fariha Bhatti Published 26/03/2025

Kick’s new partner fast track program is ideal for non-streamers who struggle with maintaining a reliable streaming schedule. Launched in collaboration with OTK, the initiative has already become quite popular and offers benefits beyond Kick’s traditional partnership model.

Kick already offers a partnership program with fairly strict eligibility requirements. The streaming platform is now teaming up with Cross Realm, an influencer-led media company and subsidiary of OTK, to introduce a more accessible, streamer-friendly partnership program. With simplified requirements, the Kick partner fast track program makes it easier for new streamers and non-streamers alike to unlock the full benefits of streaming on Kick.

This initiative comes in collaboration with OTK, a media organization founded by top streamers including Asmongold, Matthew “Mizkif” Rinaudo, and Tim “Esfand” Esfandiari. The program will allow creators to be partnered more quickly and to start earning related benefits.

How to apply for Kick partner fast track program

Creators can apply for the Kick partner fast track program directly through the Kick X Cross Realm website if they meet the eligibility criteria.

The requirements for the Fast Track program are much simpler than the standard partnership criteria. Instead of needing a specific follower count or committing to a set number of streaming hours per month, applicants only need to maintain an average of 100 viewers during a Kick live stream. Non-streamers interested in securing a Kick partnership must have a well-established presence on a major social media platform.

The Kick partner fast track program offers all the benefits that one would get from the traditional model, but without the more strict streaming requirements. Once partnered, streamers will enjoy several benefits, including:

• No minimum or maximum streaming hours required to maintain partnership
• Personal contact with a dedicated KICK Partner Manager
• 95/5 sharing on subscription revenues
• Ad-free streams
• Choosing between weekly or monthly payments

By lowering these barriers to entry, the partnership aims to empower more creators to tap into Kick’s advantageous revenue opportunities without the usual hurdles of building a new channel and partnership from the ground up. The effort is the latest in a series of moves by Kick to increase the streaming platform’s visibility and viability with streamers and viewers alike.

According to Kick, the program will be available for only a limited time in 2025. The platform has not disclosed an exact end date, meaning that streamers hoping to secure a partnership should act quickly before the offer comes to an end.
