How to Get Kick Stream Notifications in Discord
Kick is one of the fastest-growing streaming platforms, but bot support for Kick notifications is still limited. Most Discord bots only support Twitch — Streamlinx is one of the few that supports Kick alongside Twitch and YouTube, all in one bot.
Why Kick Notifications Are Hard to Find
Kick doesn't have the same ecosystem of third-party tools that Twitch has built over the years. Most popular Discord bots (MEE6, Streamcord) don't support Kick at all. If you're part of a community that watches Kick streamers, your options are limited.
Streamlinx fills that gap with full Kick support:
- Go-live alerts — get notified the moment a Kick streamer starts broadcasting
- Stream details — title, viewer count, and category included in every notification
- Custom messages — personalize alerts with template variables
- 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.
Use the streamer's Kick username exactly as it appears in their channel URL. For example, if their channel is kick.com/ninja, enter ninja.
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.
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.
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.
