Kick restreaming FAQs

The questions we get asked most about streaming to Kick with Stream Repeater.

Can I stream to Kick and Twitch at the same time?

Yes. Send one feed to Stream Repeater and add both Kick and Twitch as destinations; we relay a copy to each server-side, and a unified chat brings both platforms’ chat into one feed.

What bitrate can I use on Kick?

Kick is known for allowing high bitrates — 6,000 kbps and beyond for 1080p — though your real ceiling is the upload your connection can hold with headroom.
