Spring platform integrations

In Creator Resources, Platform Integrations by Eboni Bright December 9, 2020

You can share products seamlessly with your community through our platform integrations.  Use the Integrations tab to activate and customize your products on Instagram, YouTube, Twitch, Discord, and Streamlabs.

YouTube merch shelf

If you’ve got 10k+ YouTube subscribers you may be eligible to sell your products on the YouTube merch shelf. Visit your YouTube Studio, click on Monetization and follow the prompts through to Merchandise. The Merch shelf appears below your YouTube videos, in your channel store, on end cards, and more. Pin products under specific videos and feature them during livestreams. Check out the YouTube promo guide to learn how to use this tool.

Linktree Integration

With this feature, fans can browse your top products or head to your full Spring store—all from your Linktree in your social media bio. This means seamless shopping for them and tons of new traffic for you. Learn more.

Instagram shopping

The Instagram shopping integration allows you to promote your products by tagging them in your Instagram posts, stories, reels, and more. Your fans can browse and purchase straight from your profile. You’ll be able to track insights and habits to better understand your fans. And that’s just a few of the benefits. If you have access, you’ll see an “Add shop” button on your Instagram profile. Learn more and register your interest below.

Twitch store 

The Spring  x Twitch merch store panel extension gives fans a fully integrated experience and enables them to discover your products without having to leave your stream. Creators can drop subscriber-exclusive products to reward loyal followers and encourage more subscriptions. Your products will be visible to international viewers within 15 minutes of adding them to your store. Check out our Twitch promo guide to learn more. 

Streamlabs

Spring’s live merch alerts are available on every streaming platform integrated with Streamlabs—including YouTube, Twitch, Mixer, Facebook Gaming, and more. What’s more, you can customize their appearance within Streamlabs too. Once activated, your community can add a personalized message post-purchase that is visible in real-time to you and all of your fans watching your stream.

To customize the look of your alerts, go to the sidebar and select Features > Alert Box > Merch. You can use Streamlabs for merch alerts while using other alert providers too. Make sure there’s no overlap with activated alerts on each platform—for example, if you’re using merch alerts on Streamlabs, make sure they’re deactivated on StreamElements. 

Discord

The Spring x Discord integration allows your fans to create and push custom alerts to a Discord channel of your choosing whenever they purchase your products. Alerts feature a link to the product they purchased as well as a personalized message from your fan.
