Speedrunner donations in Georgia
Chasing a personal best, running an exact route, and fighting over milliseconds is becoming a well-known stream genre in Georgia too. A speedrunner on Donator takes donations by any bank card, the alert never covers the timer or splits, and the money lands in a Georgian bank, in GEL.
A donation at the hottest moment of the run
On a speedrun, viewers see the runner closing in on a personal best, and a donation often lands in exactly those tense seconds, as a sign of support.
With Donator, viewers send a donation by card with no registration, so the support never slows the run's pace.
An alert that never covers the splits
The donation alert shows through an OBS Browser Source, and you place it beside the timer, the splits tool, or the PB comparison so no number ever gets covered.
On a long marathon-style stream, where donation incentives shift the run order, the alert shows each change clearly, without getting in the way.
| Donator | Foreign service | |
|---|---|---|
| Payment | Any card, GEL | Often needs a foreign wallet |
| Payout | Direct to a Georgian bank, in GEL | Often hard or limited |
| Alert near the timer | Never covers it, via OBS | Similar |
Questions from speedrunners
- Can I add the alert without covering the timer or splits?
- Yes. The overlay comes as an OBS Browser Source, and both its spot and its size are left for you to decide.
- Can I use a donation as an incentive to pick the next run?
- Yes. A viewer can write a specific category or route in the message, and you read it on air and choose.
- How much does Donator take?
- Donator takes only a small percentage of a donation sent during a run, and the remainder is wired to you unchanged in GEL, to a Georgian bank.
- Why Donator instead of Twitch bits?
- Twitch bits only work on its own platform and route payment strictly through its own system. On Donator, a donation during a run can be sent with any card, Georgian or foreign, so the diaspora can back a PB attempt too, and the money settles straight in a Georgian bank, in GEL. DonationAlerts and Streamlabs are built for other markets and usually require a foreign wallet, while Donator runs in Georgian and stays the most direct route to a donation inside the country.
