See a Reserved channel? A spot has been saved on KICK for a creator, and you can be part of their community from day one. Follow a Reserved Account and show there's already an audience waiting for them.
What can I do on a Reserved Account page?
You can follow the account to earn your Early Follower badge, and use the chat to connect with other fans who are already waiting. Rally together and show the creator there's already a community here for them on KICK.
What is the Early Follower badge?
If you follow a Reserved Account before the Creator claims it, you become eligible for an Early Follower badge. It shows you were there before the Creator's channel officially launched on KICK.
How do I become eligible?
Follow the Reserved Account (click Follow on the channel) any time before the Creator claims it. Once the creator claims their reserved account, the window closes.
When does my badge activate?
Your Early Follower badge activates once the Creator claims their account and goes live for the first time. You’ll get an email when this happens.
When it activates, it becomes a channel badge that you can equip in the chat to show you followed them from the very beginning. Where can I see my badge?
Once activated, your Early Follower badge appears under Chat Settings on the Creator's channel.
What if I unfollow?
Unfollowed before the Creator claims the account: you can still become eligible, as long as you follow again before the claim happens.
Unfollowed after the Creator claims the account: you keep your Early Follower badge. This works the same as any other KICK badge.
Can I subscribe to a Reserved Account?
Subscriptions and gifting are not available on Reserved Accounts. Once the creator claims their channel, subscriptions and gifting will become available.
Common questions
My badge hasn't activated yet. The Creator hasn't gone live for the first time since claiming their account. Once they do, your badge activates.
The Creator hasn't claimed the account yet. Your badge won't activate until they claim it and go live. Encourage them to claim their channel!
I didn't get notified that my badge activated. In-platform notifications only show if you're active on KICK at that moment, and email notifications can take up to 24 hours to arrive.
