Twitch has announced that Affiliates can now unlock up to nine total regular emote slots, as well as five animated emotes.

⠀

Emotes are a great addition to Twitch that allows streamers to grow their community and thank their viewers and subscribers for watching. At first, affiliates used to only have a single custom emote slot, until yesterday when Twitch upped the number of emotes slots to five.

⠀

Affiliates can unlock the extra slots by having up to 50 subscriber points. Due to partnered streamers having more perks to offer their subscribers, Affiliates often struggle competing for subscribers, so Twitch’s announcement will help them offer more to their communities.

⠀

Twitch has also made changes to its partner program, increasing the slots available for them, as well.
