How to set up donation milestones your community reaches together
July 10, 2026

Donation milestones turn support on stream into a shared game, where the community works together toward a visible goal. This guide explains how to set up donation milestones so they add motivation and stay transparent.
What a donation milestone is and why it works
A donation milestone is a specific amount the community works toward together, for example for a new microphone or a special stream.
Visible progress makes a viewer feel their contribution creates a real result, and that feeling is what raises support.
How to set a realistic goal
Start with a small, reachable goal. An impossible amount discourages a community, while a small win encourages the next step.
Tie the goal to a clear result, for example an equipment upgrade, so viewers can see where their support goes.
Showing and involving the goal on stream
Show the goal's progress on stream so viewers always see how much is left to the finish.
Mark every stage out loud as the goal gets close, that moment creates shared excitement for the community.
Milestones, alerts and payout
A Donator alert shows every donation instantly in OBS, which turns progress toward the goal into a live event.
The amount reached is paid out to the streamer in GEL to a Georgian bank, through an official partnership with TBC and Bank of Georgia. A small platform fee keeps the service running and developing.
