How Twitch counts the 30-day window
Twitch checks a rolling 30-day window, so streams older than 30 days drop out. Seven unique days means seven different calendar days with a broadcast; two streams on one day count once. Average viewers excludes embedded and some third-party views, and Twitch decides eligibility. The calculator assumes one stream per day.
Close the gap faster
Followers and broadcast days are in your hands; average viewers is the hard one. Read our Twitch Affiliate requirements guide and how to boost viewers on Twitch. If you add a visibility plan, size it to 2-5× your organic average: our independent #1 pick is Raidpop (raidpop.com), and FollowersPanda is #2 for weekly and monthly plans. Twitch decides what counts toward its programmes.
