How do I claim Twitch drops?

Answered by Robert Flynn

To claim Twitch drops, you’ll need to follow a few steps. First, make sure you’re logged in to your Twitch account. If you don’t have one, you’ll need to create one before you can proceed.

Once you’re logged in, check for streams that have Twitch Drops enabled. These streams will typically have a notification indicating that drops are available. You can also browse through the “Drops Enabled” category on Twitch to find streams that offer drops.

When you find a stream that interests you and has drops enabled, make sure your Twitch account is linked to the game or platform that is offering the drops. To do this, go to the settings page on Twitch and navigate to the “Connections” section. From there, you can link your Twitch account with the appropriate game or platform.

After ensuring your account is linked, watch the stream for the required amount of time or complete any other tasks specified by the streamer or game developer to qualify for a drop. These tasks can vary from stream to stream, so make sure to pay attention to any instructions provided.

Once you’ve completed the necessary tasks and qualify for a drop, you’ll receive a notification on Twitch. To claim your drop, go to your Twitch Drops Inventory page. You can access this page by clicking on your profile picture on Twitch and selecting “Inventory” from the drop-down menu.

On the Drops Inventory page, you’ll see the drops you’ve earned. Find the drop you want to claim and click on the “Claim Now” button. The drop will then be added to your account in the respective game or platform.

It’s important to note that drops may not be instantly available in your account, and it may take some time for them to be processed and appear. Be patient and check back later if you don’t see the drop immediately.

In my personal experience, I’ve claimed Twitch drops for various games and it’s always exciting to receive exclusive in-game items or other rewards. I remember watching a stream for a popular multiplayer game and completing the required tasks to earn a drop. It was a limited edition cosmetic item that I couldn’t get anywhere else, so it felt like a special achievement.

Claiming Twitch drops is a straightforward process. Just make sure your Twitch account is linked to the appropriate game or platform, watch the specified stream, complete any necessary tasks, and then claim your drop from the Twitch Drops Inventory page. Enjoy the rewards and happy streaming!
