Going live is the easy part.
The questions that come after the stream.
“Why is there no VAT on my Twitch payout?”
Platforms pay by self-billing credit note, often from abroad. Affliq knows the platforms' master data and gives every payout the right tax case, including for the EC Sales List.
“What did I actually earn this month?”
Twitch, YouTube, TikTok, sponsors and affiliate links in one figure, split by source. What changed since yesterday comes first.
“Is the headset from the brand income?”
If you keep it, usually yes. Affliq records gear with market value and business share so your tax adviser can treat it correctly.
“The sponsor isn't paying.”
Every invoice has a payment term. Once it passes, the reminder is ready, then the dunning letter. You send it with one tap.
Everything besides the stream.
For streamers on Twitch, YouTube Live and TikTok LIVE.
Platform payouts
Import reports or share a screenshot. Affliq classifies the credit notes for tax, with the platform's billing entity, country and VAT ID.
Sponsor deals with invoices
Set up a deal with fee and deliverables, an invoice under § 14 UStG with one tap, as an e-invoice for companies too.
Gear and PR packages
Camera, lights, peripherals: with value and business share, and what became of them, with a photo as evidence.
Tax reserve and limit
What to set aside, when the prepayment is due and how close you are to the Kleinunternehmer limit.
Streaming is a business. The tax office sees it that way too.
Subs, bits, Super Chats, creator programmes: platforms don't pay by invoice but by self-billing credit note, and often from Ireland, Luxembourg or the US. That has VAT consequences hardly any streamer knows about, and your tax adviser will ask at year end.
Affliq knows the platforms: who pays, from where, with which VAT ID. You import the payout, Affliq picks the tax case and prepares the EC Sales List where one is due. Sponsor deals get a proper invoice, PR hardware gets its value.
At the end there's a package for your tax adviser: all income with evidence, all products with value and whereabouts, the bookings for DATEV, sevDesk or lexoffice.
Affliq records and does the maths, it does not advise. How things are taxed is your tax adviser's call.
Frequently asked questions
Do streamers have to pay tax?
Income from streams, sponsorships and affiliate links is usually business income in Germany. Affliq keeps a tax reserve at your own rate and shows the Kleinunternehmer limit. What applies to you is for your tax adviser to say.
Which platforms does Affliq support for streamers?
Twitch, YouTube, TikTok and any other: payouts are recorded the same way. For the common platforms Affliq maintains the master data so the tax case is right.
Does Affliq connect to my Twitch account?
No need. You import reports or share screenshots. Affliq never posts, never streams and never reads dashboards.
Can I invoice sponsors?
Yes. Invoices under § 14 UStG with gapless numbering and the right tax case, as e-invoices for companies too. If someone doesn't pay, the reminder is ready.
Is there an Android app?
Not yet. iOS first, Android follows. The web portal works in any browser.
