    All this information and your progress can be found in the Creator Studio. Besides doing the steps listed above, you also need to make sure that your Page uses the Video Page Template, otherwise, the badge won’t show up on your page.

What is the Facebook Gaming Partner Badge?

The Facebook gaming Partner badge is part of the partner program. This badge shows off that this user consistently makes good content, has followers that are engaged with your page, and is therefore supported by Facebook.

How to Get the Partner Badge

Becoming a Facebook gaming Partner isn’t something that you can immediately see when you become a Level Up creator. You still need to be invited to be able to apply for the Gaming Partner badge. When you get invited to be a Facebook Gaming Partner, you have to make sure you complete some extra steps before you can actually apply. There are 7 parts to becoming a Facebook gaming Partner.

  • Be a Level Up Creator for at least 2 months.
  • Meet the Monetization Eligibility Standards.
  • Stream from an eligible country.
  • Review what Facebook is looking for in a partner.
  • Have at least 3000 engaged followers.
  • Earn at least $2000 in stars.
  • Maintain 3000+ engaged followers for at least 30 days in a 60 day period.

When you have managed to do all this, you can apply to be a Facebook Gaming Partner so you can get the badge. So Facebook is looking for creators that have a good engagement but can also keep this engagement up.
