Frequently Asked Questions:

I have a great personality, and it sounds fun, but is there really an audience for chess streamers?
Yes, there is! Chess has experienced a boom like nothing before in the last few years! Creators in India and across the world have made a name for themselves. Chess.com/streamers already lists many of the world's most famous chess streaming personalities, and there's room for you!

What’s the difference between the Indian Streamers Program and the Chess.com Streamers Program?
While the overall program is essentially the same, the streamers in the Indian program will be in direct touch with our Indian team. This will not only help with more effective growth for the creators but also might lead to some localized opportunities.
