How to add links to your Twitch bio and panels

To add links to Twitch, you have two spots: the social links and About section on your channel page, and the panels that sit under your stream on the Home tab. The About area handles your main socials and a short bio, and panels give you room for everything else, from your schedule to your donation link to your gear list.

Most streamers should use both, and then point people at a single link-in-bio page so you are not rebuilding the same list of links in five places.

The two places links live on Twitch

Twitch splits your links across two systems, which trips people up. Here is the difference.

• Social links and About. These live in your channel settings. The social links show as tidy icons on your profile, and the About box is a short bio with room for a few key links.
• Panels. These are the boxes below your video player on the Home tab. Each panel can have an image, a title, some text, and one clickable link. This is where streamers put donations, schedules, gear, rules, and sponsor links.

You add them in different places, and they look different to viewers, so it is worth knowing which is which before you start.

How to add social links to your Twitch profile

The layout of Twitch settings shifts between updates, so treat this as the general path. It currently works like this:

1. Open Creator Dashboard or your settings. Click your avatar, usually top-right, and head to Settings, then Channel or Profile.
2. Find the social links section. Look for an area labeled Social Links or similar. It lets you add named links to your other platforms.
3. Add each social. Enter the name and URL for each one. Twitch usually detects common platforms and shows the right icon automatically.
4. Write your About text. Fill in a short bio. You can include a link or two here, but keep it readable, since this is a description, not a link dump.
5. Save. Confirm your changes and check your public profile to see how the icons render.

How to add panels under your stream

Panels are the workhorses. Here is the general flow, which currently looks like this:

1. Go to your channel page. Open your own channel as if you were a viewer.
2. Find the Home or About tab below the player. Panels live in this area.
3. Turn on Edit Panels. There is usually a toggle near the top of the panel area. Flip it on to enter edit mode.
4. Add a new panel. Click the button to add a panel. A blank panel box appears.
5. Add an image, title, and link. Upload a panel image (many streamers use a matching set for a clean look), give it a title, add a short description, and paste the link it should point to.
6. Repeat for each destination. Make one panel per thing: socials, schedule, donations, gear, rules, sponsor.
7. Reorder and save. Drag panels into the order you want, then turn off edit mode. They are live.

That works. But notice the problem building: every panel holds exactly one link, and you are now maintaining a growing wall of boxes.

The cleaner setup: one panel that opens everything

Here is where a link-in-bio page earns its keep. Instead of ten panels for ten destinations, you make one panel that points at a single page holding all your links.

Why this is better for a streamer:

• You update one place. New social, new sponsor, new merch drop? You change it on your link page, and every panel and bio that points there is instantly current. No re-uploading panel images.
• It travels. The same link works in your Twitch panel, your TikTok bio, your YouTube description, and your Discord. One address, everywhere.
• It can play video. With isall.me, paste a YouTube or Vimeo link and it plays right on the page. Great for a channel trailer, a highlight reel, or your best clip.

With isall.me, that page is free and comes with unlimited links, real customization so it matches your channel branding, basic analytics so you can see what viewers actually click, and a free QR code for when you go to events or put your link on stream.

A good split is: keep two or three high-value panels for the things people want instantly (donate, schedule), and use one isall.me panel labeled something like Everything Else or All My Links for the long tail.

Panel ideas worth having

• Donate or tip. The one people look for first.
• Schedule. When you go live, in your viewers' words.
• Socials. Or a single link-in-bio panel that covers all of them.
• Gear and setup. What you play on. Great for affiliate links.
• Merch. Your shop.
• Rules. Chat and community guidelines.

A note on tips and fees

If you take tips or sell merch through your link, the fee matters. Some tools skim a percentage of everything.

On isall.me, the free plan takes a 9% platform fee on tips and product sales, and Pro drops that to 0%. Pro is 24 dollars for the whole year, about 2 dollars a month, and it adds full customization, a custom domain, advanced analytics, and removes the badge. For comparison, rival link tools commonly charge 5 to 24 dollars per month. Roughly one month of theirs buys a whole year of isall.me Pro.

FAQ

What is the difference between Twitch social links and panels? Social links show as icons on your profile and are for your other platforms. Panels are the boxes under your video player, and each one can hold an image, text, and a single link. Use social links for socials and panels for everything else, like donations, schedule, and gear.

How many links can I add to a Twitch panel? Each panel holds one clickable link. That is why many streamers use one panel that points at a link-in-bio page, so a single box can lead to their whole list without cluttering the channel.

Can my Twitch panel show a video? The panel itself just links out, but you can point it at an isall.me page where pasted YouTube and Vimeo links play as real video. So one panel can lead to your trailer or best clip playing on the page.

Is a link-in-bio page free for streamers? Yes. isall.me is free with unlimited links, native video, customization, basic analytics, and a QR code. Pro is 24 dollars a year if you want a custom domain, advanced analytics, no badge, and 0% fees on tips and merch.

Set up your links once

Your links change more often than you want to re-edit panels, so let one page do the work. Claim your free isall.me link, load in your socials, schedule, donations, and gear, then point one clean Twitch panel at it.
