On air now
Free streams open without an account. Paid streams need a wallet.
For hosts
Three steps from signing up to getting paid
Free streaming works from the moment you register. Verification is what unlocks money.
Verify who you are
Upload a national ID or passport, then take a live selfie so we can match you to it. Documents are encrypted and never shown publicly.
Go live
Broadcast straight from your browser camera, or push RTMP from OBS or any encoder. Choose free, subscriber-only or ticketed before you start.
Get paid
Subscriptions, ticket sales and tips land in your wallet while you stream. Request a payout to mobile money or a bank account.
For every connection
Built for the connection your viewers actually have
Playback measures the network and picks the highest rung it can hold. When video stops being possible, the sound keeps going instead of the stream dying.
Drag to see what a viewer gets as the connection drops.

For viewers
Watch first. Pay only where it matters.
There is no platform subscription. You pay for the streams you choose, and the money goes to the host.
Watch free streams
Open a free stream and watch. Create an account when you want to chat or pay.
Subscribe to a host
A subscription unlocks that host's subscriber-only streams. Each host sets their own price.
Buy a ticket
One-off pay-per-view access to a single stream — a match, a concert, a ceremony.
Send a tip
Tip during a stream from your wallet balance. It goes straight to the host.
For your earnings
Earnings in shillings, out to mobile money
Every payment moves through your WasaaLive wallet: top-ups in, subscriptions, tickets and tips through, payouts out.
- Priced in KES
- Set subscription and ticket prices in Kenyan shillings. Viewers pay in the currency they already hold.
- Payout to mobile money or bank
- Request a payout once your balance clears the minimum. Destination accounts are confirmed with the payment provider, never stored here.
- Your balance is the ledger
- The balance is always the sum of completed transactions. Corrections are new entries, never edits to an old one.
Minimum payout is KES 1,000.

For your peace of mind
What we check, and what you can check
Verification before monetization
A host cannot take money until identity verification passes. Free streaming does not require it.
A receipt for every movement
Top-ups, tips, tickets, subscriptions and payouts each write a receipt you can open in your wallet.
Reporting and moderation
Report a stream or a chat message to moderators. Mature streams sit behind an age gate, and under-18 hosts need guardian consent.
Your first stream costs nothing to run
Create an account, go live, and verify when you are ready to charge for it.
Verify your identity to enable paid streams, tips and payouts. Free streaming works without it.
