Twitch is celebrating its annual ‘SUBtember’ event with a huge discount for gifted subs throughout the month of September.

In a stream during PAX West, Twitch revealed the return of SUBtember, an annual sale for subscriptions across the platform.

This year’s promotion was announced with a graphic that revealed a major discount for gifted subscriptions.

This SUBtember, users who have been gifted a subscription can continue the service into the next month for just one dollar. Better yet, this discount doesn’t affect streamers – creators will still receive the full subscription amount, with Twitch providing the rest of the revenue payout. 

However, there is a catch – the sale only applies to subs gifted within the month of September. Those who’ve gifted subs, rejoice – the ‘giftee’ can continue their subscription for the low price of a single George Washington.

Users have been raving about the news on social media, with many streamers delighted at the prospect of gifted subscribers getting a chance to resub at a heavily reduced price.

“Yeah SOOOOO all 4500 of you that got gifted a sub in my channel? You can extend your sub by one month for $1 and @twitch covers rest so we still get our full cut. God damn! #hammersup #subtember”
