How to Get Kick.com Stream Alerts in Discord

To get Kick stream notifications in Discord, add Streamlinx to your server and enter a Kick username in the web dashboard — setup takes under a minute. Streamlinx supports Kick alongside Twitch and YouTube, all in one bot, and the free tier covers up to 5 Kick streamers.

What You Get with Kick Notifications

• Go-live alerts — get notified the moment a Kick streamer starts broadcasting
• Stream details — title, viewer count, and category included in every notification
• Game box art — cover art displayed as a thumbnail in the embed
• Custom messages — personalize alerts with template variables
• Offline behavior — choose what happens when the stream ends
• Multi-platform — track Kick, Twitch, and YouTube streamers in the same server

Step 1: Add Streamlinx to Your Discord Server

Visit the invite page and add the bot to your Discord server. Streamlinx only needs basic permissions to send messages and embeds.

Step 2: Open the Dashboard

Go to the Streamlinx dashboard, log in with Discord, and select your server.

Step 3: Add a Kick Streamer

Click Add Streamer and select Kick as the platform. Enter the streamer's Kick username. Streamlinx will verify the account and start monitoring.

Step 4: Choose a Notification Channel

Pick any Discord text channel for Kick alerts. Some servers use a general #live-streams channel, others create a dedicated #kick-streams — it's entirely up to you.

Step 5: Customize (Optional)

Customize the notification message, embed color, and other settings through the dashboard. The default rich embed includes the stream title, category, viewer count, and a watch button.

Done

Streamlinx monitors your Kick streamers continuously and sends a Discord alert when they go live. Setup takes less than a minute.

Template Variables

Customize your Kick notification messages with these variables:

Offline Notification Behavior

When a Kick stream ends, you have two controls:

Live notification action — what happens to the original go-live message:

• Edit the online notification — the message is updated to show the stream has ended
• Delete the online notification — the message is removed entirely

Send Offline Notification — optionally post a completely separate message when the stream ends, with its own customizable template and buttons. This works independently of the edit/delete choice above, so you can use both at the same time.

Configure offline behavior in the Streamlinx dashboard when editing a streamer.

Tips

Combine Platforms

If a streamer broadcasts on both Kick and Twitch, add them on both platforms. Streamlinx will send separate notifications for each, so your community knows which platform they're live on.

Track Up to 5 Kick Streamers Free

The free plan supports up to 5 Kick streamers per server. Premium increases this to 50 Kick streamers, plus expanded limits for Twitch and YouTube.

Route to Different Channels

Send Kick notifications to a different Discord channel than Twitch or YouTube alerts. This helps communities that follow streamers across multiple platforms stay organized.

Customize Embed Appearance

Choose between showing the stream thumbnail or game cover art in your Kick notifications. You can also set a custom embed color to match the streamer's branding or your server's theme.

Premium Features for Kick

Premium unlocks additional features for Kick streamers:

• Notification filter rules — only get notified when a streamer plays a specific game or uses certain title keywords
• Cooldowns — prevent duplicate notifications within a configurable window (1–1440 minutes)
• Custom webhooks — send notifications via your own webhook URL
• Analytics — track notification history and streaming activity

Frequently Asked Questions

Why don't most Discord bots support Kick?

Kick is a newer platform and its API ecosystem is less mature than Twitch's. Building reliable Kick integrations requires custom monitoring infrastructure. Streamlinx has invested in Kick support specifically because so many communities need it.

How fast are Kick notifications?

Kick notifications arrive within seconds to a couple of minutes of a stream going live, depending on how quickly the platform surfaces the stream data.

Can I track Kick and Twitch streamers in the same server?

Absolutely. Streamlinx is a multi-platform bot — you can track Twitch, YouTube, and Kick streamers all in one Discord server and route each to different channels.

What if a Kick streamer changes their username?

Streamlinx tracks streamers by their account ID. Username changes won't affect your notifications.

What happens when a Kick stream ends?

You control the offline behavior. The original go-live notification can be edited or deleted. You can also enable Send Offline Notification to post a separate message when the stream ends with its own template. These options work independently. VOD links are a Twitch-only feature. Configure offline behavior in the dashboard.

Can I filter Kick notifications by game or category?

Yes, with a Premium subscription. Filter rules let you only receive notifications when a streamer plays specific games or uses certain keywords in their title. For example, you could set up a streamer to only notify when they're playing Fortnite.

Does Streamlinx support all Kick streamers?

Yes. Streamlinx can track any public Kick channel. Enter the streamer's username exactly as it appears in their Kick URL and Streamlinx will verify the account and start monitoring.

What Else Can You Do?

Once your Kick notifications are set up, explore these advanced features:

• Filter Rules — Only get notified for specific games or title keywords (Premium)
• Quiet Hours — Mute notifications during off-hours and deliver a summary later (Premium)
• Analytics — Track notification history, streaming activity, and viewer trends
