Here\u2019s how to make drops and points automatic on Twitch. Twitch Drops are most often used by game developers, as a method to incentivize viewers to watch streamers play their game. Beneficial for everyone, they boost viewership for streamers, promote the developer\u2019s game, and reward viewers with free rewards. Similarly, channel points were introduced by Twitch to encourage viewers to watch longer and engage more with their favorite streamers, by giving them points to use on various features on the specific channel they are watching. Streamers can provide rewards for viewers to redeem once they have enough points. However, the slight downside for the viewers is that it requires some engagement on your part, because you have manually \u2018claim\u2019 the drops or points, rather than just being granted automatically. Thankfully, there is an easy way around this.
