KICK (@kick) — Twitter Score 72 out of 1000

KICK is a creator-focused livestreaming platform that offers a 95/5 subscription-revenue split and operates as a direct competitor to Twitch. KICK's Twitter Score is 72 out of 1000 (a Good rating) as of October 2026, ranking #11,639 (top 5%) among 498,348 tracked accounts.

KICK was founded by Ed Craven and Bijan Tehrani, the same duo behind the crypto-gambling platform Stake.com, and is operated by the Australian company Kick Streaming Pty Ltd. The platform launched in late 2022, funded through proceeds from Stake.com, partly in response to Twitch's decision to prohibit Stake.com broadcasts, making KICK central to Stake.com's livestream-based marketing strategy. KICK is also affiliated with Easygo, the broader corporate ecosystem that connects both platforms.

KICK has faced notable legal and security events. In December 2024, its X account was compromised and used to promote a purported cryptocurrency token, after which co-founder Bijan Tehrani clarified that KICK had no crypto token and no plans to launch one. Separately, the Los Angeles City Attorney filed a civil lawsuit naming Kick Streaming Pty Ltd among the defendants in connection with Stake.us, alleging violations of California's Unfair Competition Law and False Advertising Law. These are civil allegations only and do not constitute findings of liability.

KICK has published 4,824 posts and has been mentioned by 223 accounts, with 687 total mentions across the platform.
