Twitch, YouTube and Kick stream alerts for Discord

Let your community know when the stream starts, with your own message and a link to watch. fanping posts automatic go-live alerts in the Discord channels you choose.

Connect your streaming account and set up Discord in the fanping dashboard. Want help from your server admin? Share a setup link so they can connect Discord and choose the channels for you.

What your community gets

• Go-live alerts: automatic posts for Twitch, YouTube and Kick. YouTube uploads can also trigger a post.
• Messages that sound like you: custom text, server emotes and selected role mentions.
• Live roles: show when a creator is live, with automatic removal after the stream.
• VOD recaps: arm a recap for an upcoming stream so your community can find the replay after it ends.

Game and title filters let you control which streams trigger an announcement. You can also prepare voucher drops, share countdowns and post Discord polls from your dashboard. These extras need to be created or armed separately. Scheduling pings for a later time requires Pro.

Set up your first alert

1. Create a free account at https://creator.fanping.app.
2. Connect your Twitch, YouTube or Kick account.
3. Connect Discord yourself, or send your server admin a setup link.
4. Choose the channels, customize your message and send a test post with silent mentions.

If you installed the bot from top.gg first, run /fanping in Discord for setup information. Installing the bot alone does not connect a streaming account.

Managing Discord for someone else? Ask each creator for a setup link. You can connect the server and choose channels using your Discord login, without a fanping account of your own. You need Manage Server permission.

Multiple creators can use the same Discord server, but each must connect their own streaming account. fanping does not monitor arbitrary channels entered by name.

Free and Pro

Free: 1 server, up to 5 channels, unlimited automatic go-live pings, live roles and aggregate reaction statistics. No Discord member cap. Live-card updates cover the first hour of a stream. Manually created pings have a separate allowance of 5 per week.

Pro: up to 3 servers with 10 channels each, 30 manually created pings per week, scheduled pings, click statistics and live-card updates throughout the stream.
