Contract with Kick generates controversy
While xQc is enjoying the laurels of its multimillion-dollar contract with Kick, the platform’s strategy of hiring big names in streaming with huge salaries was met with a bit of controversy in the community.
After the announcement of the Canadian streamer’s contract with the “green” livestreaming platform, which is supported by investments from the online casino site Steak.com, some comments from Ninja, another of today’s biggest streamers, made xQc explain more about his contract with Kick.
In November 2023, during a livestream, xQc stated:
“The contract is very simple. The deal has nothing to do with gambling, Stake, crypto, or anything like that. It’s like what you’d get from a corporate job – no equity, no stocks, no options.
The contract is broken down into 24 months, and I get one month of that every time. Right now, it’s slowed down because I got a signing bonus and an advance. They gave me a chunk upfront, so not only do I get paid monthly, but I also got paid way more in the early months. It was kind of insane.”
