Stream to YouTube and Kick at the same time
YouTube's searchable reach and Kick's real-time audience, from a single broadcast — no double setup, no extra encoder.
Why multistream
Why creators pair YouTube with Kick
YouTube rewards consistency and search — a stream you go live with today can still be found and watched months from now. Kick is built for the moment: live-first, chat-heavy, and known for creator-friendly payout terms. Pairing them means your broadcast works for both the long tail and the live audience, without running two separate setups.
- One stream key, both platforms live together
- Works with OBS, Streamlabs, vMix, or any RTMP encoder
- Schedule broadcasts to start automatically on Starter and Pro
- Add more platforms anytime as you grow

Yes. Connect both platforms to Stream24 and go live once — from OBS, Streamlabs, or Cloud Pull — and your broadcast reaches both simultaneously.
Why stream to both instead of just picking one?+
YouTube gives you searchable, evergreen video — your streams stay discoverable long after you go offline. Kick is built for real-time, interactive live audiences and streamer-friendly payouts. Multistreaming lets your channel do both at once instead of trading one off for the other.
Does multistreaming to YouTube and Kick cost anything?+
The Free plan includes 3 simultaneous platforms at 720p, no credit card required.
Can I schedule a stream to start on both platforms automatically?+
Yes, on Starter and Pro plans. Set a start time once and Stream24 begins broadcasting to every connected platform automatically.
What if I only want to test Kick without disrupting my YouTube channel?+
Multistreaming doesn't change how your YouTube stream behaves — it's an identical, independent feed. You can add or remove Kick as a destination at any time without affecting your YouTube setup.
