How to link blizzard account to twitch

Watching video games can be boring at times if you are not getting rewards. Today, Twitch and Blizzard are allowing you to link your accounts and earn rewards.

You can link your Blizzard account to Twitch to earn rewards. Blizzard and Twitch will reward you for watching special e-Sports events.

Linking both accounts helps to improve your viewing experience too.

To win these rewards, you will first need to link your Twitch.tv account to Battle.Net account. Also, you will need to link your consoles if you are using a gaming console. Here is how to link your Blizzard account to Twitch and your gaming console.

Link Twitch account

• Sign in to your Twitch.tv account.
• Go to the Twitch connections page.
• Next to Blizzard Battle.net, click on Connect.
• Follow the instructions provided.

Having two or more Blizzard accounts is possible. If that is your case or if you are sharing your computer with somebody else, you must ensure you are linking an account that you wish to receive the rewards. You cannot receive a reward on multiple accounts.

If you can’t link Blizzard account to Twitch, several factors can explain why you are getting the problem.

• You are not logged in to the connected Twitch.tv account while watching an event.
• You are using a browser plug-in that is blocking Twitch TV from identifying you during a live stream.

To fix these problems:

• Ensure you are logged in. Otherwise, you will not receive a reward or get credits for watching an event. 
• Disable browser plug-ins to ensure your eligibility for rewards.

If your browser plug-ins are incompatible, you will not get support from Blizzard.com or Twitch.tv. Your browser can hinder your twitch streaming experience. If you think this is a problem, you need the best browser for Twitch live streaming.

Linking gaming console to Blizzard account

You can link blizzard account to ps4 account or any other gaming console account in two ways.

1. Using the Blizzard.Net site

To link to the site:

• Sign in to Blizzard Account Management page. 
• Click on Security and Privacy. 
• Select Connected Accounts. 
• Click on Connect button next to your preferred console gaming account. 

Once you click on Connect, the link will redirect you to sign in to your gaming console account. You cannot complete the connection unless you sign in. Also, you have the choice of creating a Blizzard account if you do not have one.

2. Using In-Game option to link accounts

You can link accounts while in the game. To do this:

• Open the Main Menu 
• Choose Link Account. The option will disconnect you from your current game. 
• Select Log In 
• Fill in all the required information 
• Once you have linked your accounts, select Return to Connected Accounts 

If you have multiple PS4 or Xbox Live accounts, it will be impossible to link them on one Blizzard account.

In some cases, you may be unable to link accounts because you are using a Blizzard trial account. Or, you have already linked your account with Twitch or your gaming console.
