- Twitch lets you add unlimited social links via Settings → Channel → Social Links. They appear on your channel page under “About.”
- Custom panels (below the stream) allow you to add any link with a clickable image — best for sponsorships, donations, Discord, and merch.
- For multiple links in one place, point a panel to a link-in-bio page (e.g., UniLink) — every link tracked with analytics.
Method 1 — Add Social Links to Your Twitch Profile
- Log in to twitch.tv.
- Click your avatar → Settings.
- Channel and Videos tab → Brand section.
- Scroll to Social Links.
- Click Add Social Link.
- Choose a platform (Twitter/X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Discord, Steam) or Custom.
- Paste the URL and add a name.
- Save.
Social links appear on your channel page under the “About” section.
Method 2 — Add Links via Twitch Panels
Panels below the stream — each can be a clickable image with a link.
- Go to your channel page (twitch.tv/yourname).
- Toggle Edit Panels.
- Click +.
- Upload an image (320 px wide, up to 2.9 MB).
- Add a panel title and description.
- Paste your link into the Image Links to field.
- Submit.
Panel ideas: Discord, donations, merch, sponsor codes, gear list, schedule, latest YouTube video, link-in-bio.
Method 3 — Link in Stream Title or Pinned Chat
For temporary or stream-specific links:
- Add a link to the stream title (visible above the stream).
- Pin a chat message with a link (mods can pin via /pin for Affiliate+).
- Use a !command via Nightbot or Streamlabs Cloudbot — viewers type !discord, !merch, !sponsor and the bot replies with the link.

Why Use a Link-in-Bio on Twitch
Adding 8 separate panels and 8 separate links works — but each viewer has to find the right one.
One link-in-bio (like UniLink) consolidates everything:
- One link in your stream title, panel, and chat command.
- All destinations under one URL — Discord, merch, YouTube, sponsor codes.
- Analytics on every link — see what Twitch viewers actually click.
- Update once — it reflects everywhere.

- Copy your URL (e.g., unil.ink/yourname).
