TeleLive, Twitch or Kick?

We hear this question a lot, usually from streamers who have spent time on Twitch or Kick. We built TeleLive, so we're obviously not neutral. That's why we've stuck to things you can check for yourself.

Where you get seen

Twitch and Kick have a far bigger global audience, and no Persian platform comes close to that today. The catch is that a new Persian streamer gets lost there among tens of thousands of English channels. On TeleLive every channel is Persian-speaking, and the front page and category pages only show those, so small channels have a real chance to be found.

Money

This is the biggest difference. On TeleLive, subs, donations and Tele are all paid with Iranian bank cards, and streamers get paid inside Iran. On foreign platforms, viewers in Iran usually have no way to pay, and getting payouts is a serious hassle for streamers in Iran.

Access

TeleLive is built for internet inside Iran, and streams play in mobile and desktop browsers without installing anything. There are also Android, Android TV and desktop apps (download). The interface is fully Persian too; Twitch and Kick don't offer a Persian interface.

You don't have to pick one

Plenty of streamers are on several platforms at once, and that's fine by us. Our Explore page shows every Persian-speaking streamer who is live right now on TeleLive, Twitch or Kick in one place.

If your audience is mostly Persian-speaking and you want your earnings to actually reach you, give TeleLive a try. If you're after an international audience, keep Twitch or Kick alongside it. To get started, read this guide.
