Kai Cenat Reveals Major Offer from Kick During Subathon
In a recent revelation, renowned Twitch streamer Kai Cenat disclosed that the streaming platform Kick had proposed a staggering $60 million for him to broadcast part of his inaugural subathon in 2023. This significant offer surfaced during streaming sessions where Cenat engaged his audience with a series of entertaining and unpredictable events.
The Mafiathon Experience
Currently, Kai Cenat is in the midst of an extensive Mafiathon, which commenced on November 1 and is scheduled to last for 30 continuous days. Viewership has surged into the hundreds of thousands, as fans have been treated to a range of dramatic occurrences, including Kai being swatted, dislocating his shoulder, and even hosting a live wedding. These thrilling incidents have not only entertained viewers but have also propelled him to exceed his subscriber goals, ultimately surpassing Ironmouse to set a new Twitch subscriber record for the second time.
Details of the Kick Offer
On November 11, Kai sat down with his subathon viewers to share insights about the lucrative offer from Kick made back in February 2023. During a live stream, he recounted the moment, saying:
“The day before the first mafiathon, Kick called me on the phone, it’s all live going on, and they said, ‘Yo, we’ll give you $60 million to stream half of the subathon on Kick. And then at the conclusion of the event, you’d have to announce your commitment to join Kick.’”

Choosing the Right Path
After receiving the offer, Kai took a moment to reflect, stating, “I literally got down on my knees and prayed, asking God to guide me toward making the right decision.” He emphasized that his choice to remain on Twitch was pivotal for his career, expressing confidence that switching to Kick would not have yielded the same success.
Kai concluded, “If I had made the switch, I wouldn’t be here right now.” His sentiment resonates with many in the community, as the choice between platforms can significantly impact a streamer’s career trajectory.
Industry Trends: The Shift to Kick
Kai Cenat is not alone in facing lucrative offers from Kick. Other prominent streamers like xQc, Amouranth, and Adin Ross have made the transition from Twitch to Kick, driven by financial incentives. However, it is noteworthy that Kick has since curtailed the distribution of such substantial contracts.
As the streaming landscape continues to evolve, decisions like Cenat’s will shape both personal careers and the broader dynamics of content creation platforms.
