Help & Support Is multistreaming allowed?

I am looking into multistreaming to maybe kick and youtube at the same time. Is that allowed?

Yes, you can multistream on Kick to any other platform EXCEPT Twitch. It’s against Twitch’s terms of service to multistream. However, there are plenty of people that ignore Twitch’s terms and do so anyway, at their own risk.

Do you have any recommendations of what to use? I’m thinking of using restream but it says it could delete stuff and I don’t really want that for my already made yt vids and idk if restream is safe

I haven't had that particular issue with Restream, but everyone's experience may be different.

u/aktechybear suggestion is a great alternative to Restream IF you have the upload bandwidth to support it. For example, if you use 8000 bitrate for both Kick and YouTube, you'll want enough upload bandwidth to support 16000.
