The expected move has come from Twitch, the world-famous US-based electronic sports and video game-focused live streaming platform. With 15 million daily viewers and 140 million monthly users, Twitch is switching to local pricing for subscription fees as of this week.
It will be 9.90 TL instead of 38.90 TL
The platform, which first started its local pricing policy in Brazil, was quite satisfied with the results. The new subscription fees of the platform, which was founded by Justin.tv founders Justin Kan and Emmett Shear in 2011 and purchased by Amazon for 970 million dollars in 2014, will now be only 9.90 TL instead of 38.90 TL. The application, which will start in Mexico along with Turkey, is also aimed to spread to other geographies. With the entry of Amazon Prime into Turkey, the platform, which has gained a significant number of users, will have made its most important move in Turkey.
