They can even be set up before you are a Twitch affiliate, allowing you to monetize your stream regardless of how long you have been streaming for!

   Requirements to Set Up Streamlabs Donations

   There are, however, a couple of requirements that must be met before you can set up your own donation link. To own a PayPal account (which is the most common payment method) you must be 18 years of age.

   If you choose to allow donations by credit card, you will have to enter lots of personal information such as full name, birthday, address, and even your SSN if you are in the US. You must also supply a picture of your ID, which must be a government-issued identification. You must also have a bank account in order to set up credit card donations.

   When Can Streamlabs Donations Be Withdrawn?

   You will be able to see your pending and current balance by visiting the ‘Donation Settings.’ The available balance is the amount of money that you are able to withdraw. The pending balance is money that is being processed. It will usually take 2-3 business days before it is added to your balance.

   Money can be withdrawn as frequently as you like, so long as there is an available balance to withdraw from. Each withdrawal usually takes 3-7 business days before the money will appear in your account.

   Donations through PayPal will typically be sent straight to your PayPal account.
