What is StreamSponsor?

StreamSponsor is a sponsor logo rotator and complete sponsorship management platform for live streamers. It automates logo rotation, tracks analytics and impressions, manages deals and payments, runs campaigns, and provides customizable overlays with scrollers, weather widgets, flight scrollers, and more. It works as a browser source overlay with OBS, Streamlabs, and CameraFi.

How do I add StreamSponsor to OBS?

Add a Browser Source in OBS, paste your unique overlay URL from the StreamSponsor dashboard, set the width and height to match your stream resolution, and enable transparency. Your sponsor logos will appear on your stream automatically.

Is StreamSponsor free?

StreamSponsor offers a 30-day free trial with full Pro access, no credit card required. After the trial, plans start at $5/month for the Starter plan, $9/month for Pro, and $14/month for Ultra.

What streaming platforms does StreamSponsor work with?

StreamSponsor works with any streaming platform that supports browser source overlays, including Twitch, YouTube Live, Kick, Rumble, Facebook Live, and more. It also supports mobile streaming apps like CameraFi Live.

Can I add the Chat Reader to OBS as a Browser Source?

Yes! Your Chat Reader URL works as an OBS/Streamlabs Browser Source with a fully transparent background. Copy the URL from your Dashboard, add a Browser Source in OBS, paste the URL, and set the size to 400x600. Live chat from Twitch, Kick, YouTube, Rumble, and Facebook will appear on your stream with a transparent background.

What is the Flight Scroller / Plane Spotter overlay?

The Flight Scroller is an Ultra feature that displays live aircraft data near any airport using ADS-B tracking. It shows airline, aircraft type, altitude, speed, distance, heading, and status in either a scrolling ticker or structured airport-board view. It includes an integrated METAR aviation weather bar with toggleable data points like flight category, temperature, humidity, wind, visibility, altimeter, clouds, ceiling, and NWS weather alerts.

How do I update my overlay while streaming?

Use the Force Refresh Overlay button on your Dashboard. Make any changes — add sponsors, swap logos, adjust positions, update widgets — then click Force Refresh. Your live overlay updates immediately without needing to restart OBS, Streamlabs, or CameraFi. This bypasses browser source caching, which can hold stale content for hours or even days.
