How to Help sell Humble Bundle’s E3 Digital Ticket on Your Channel Page
From June 11–18, Twitch will be partnering with Humble Bundle to sell the Humble Bundle Digital Ticket on Twitch from any streamer’s page. Humble will be giving over half of the proceeds to the ESA Foundation, which helps charities like Extra Life, the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, Vision Quest, and many others.
****We’ve done the work, so any streamer who wants to help sell the bundle can participate. All you have to do to make the buy button appear is include #E3DT in your stream’s title.
Just go to your dashboard and drop #E3DT alongside your title, It’s basically sorcery.
Partners and Affiliates will earn a percentage of any sales that come from their channel page, but we encourage all other streamers to join in and help contribute to charity as well!
