The gift cards can be used to purchase “Bits”, which are virtual goods that “support streamers or celebrate moments” in a chat.
They can also be used to gift someone a subscription, and to purchase “Subs”, which is a recurring subscription that works to support streamers and unlocks special subscriber benefits.
The gift cards are available in denominations of $25, $50, $100 and $200. Physical ones will available for purchase at Best Buy and GameStop in the near future, with values of between $15 and $200.
Those wishing to purchase a gift card can do so via Twitch’s official site.
