Many people are unaware of its existence. Take a few seconds to explain how the Super Chat system works and encourage your audience to participate. You can start by saying: \u201cHey guys, I\u2019m using this amazing new feature called Super Chat in this video. If you want to support my channel, consider shooting me a Super Chat.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong> Always acknowledge a Super Chat in your livestream<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When someone send you a Super Chat, make sure you thank them and respond to the chat personally. Shout out to everyone else that this is what a Super Chat looks like. You can say \u201cThanks so much for sending me a Super Chat Jane. You\u2019re awesome! Guys, this is what a Super Chat looks like.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When one fan sends a Super Chat, others catch on and follow suit. So your fans get their message highlighted for everyone to see, plus they get your attention as well!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong> Use calls to action\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your live stream could go on for a long duration, and you\u2019ll have people popping in at different intervals. People who visit your stream later on should know that you have Super Chat enabled. You can achieve this by placing text in a corner of your video that reads: \u201cTalk to me directly by sending me a Super Chat. Check description below for more deets.\u201d You can explain in depth about how Super Chat works in your description.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong> Set Super Chat challenges and goals<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Set a Super Chat goal so that when you hit a certain number of Super Chats, you can do something fun and creative for your audience to look forward to. For example, every time you receive a Super Chat, you can reveal secrets about yourself or write the donor\u2019s name on a wall of fame. This gives an exciting incentive for people to contribute.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong> Collaborate with a not-for-profit<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check whether <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/youtube\/answer\/6318560\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Super Chat for Good<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is available in your country. If it is, enable it and select a charity you want to support. 100% of the funds raised in your livestream will automatically be routed to the charity you\u2019ve chosen. Partnering with a nonprofit is an ideal way to give back to the community and play your part as a corporate citizen. You can build trust, respect and positivity in your community by engaging in corporate citizenship activities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li><strong> Moderate your Super Chat<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">YouTube\u2019s live chat moderation tools let you automate your livestream to filter out spam and unwanted messages.

The more you dive into details, the easier it is for people to trust you. Instead of saying you\u2019re using your donors\u2019 money to make new videos, tell them which video in specific you\u2019re going to be using their money on, what equipment you will be buying and why you will not be able to buy it yourself. Weave a storyline that lets people empathise with you and trust your intentions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Super Chat is an invaluable tool in getting revenue for your YouTube channel.
