How to display YouTube Super Chats & memberships on stream

When someone drops a Super Chat or joins your channel, make it count. Pop Magics turns Super Chats, Super Stickers, and new memberships into 3D bubbles right on your webcam stage. Here's the setup.

Time: ~8 minutes Works on: macOS & Windows You'll need: A YouTube channel with live streaming on

YouTube's built-in chat scrolls fast, and Super Chats can blink by before you even read them. Pop Magics pulls those moments out of the chat river and onto your stage as 3D bubbles — sized by amount, impossible to miss. Let's connect your channel.

Before you start

  • Pop Magics installed and running (download here).
  • A YouTube channel with live streaming enabled.

Step-by-step

  1. Connect YouTube

    In the Creator hub, click Connect YouTube. A secure loopback OAuth login opens in your browser — approve access on YouTube and you're connected. No password goes into Pop Magics.

  2. Let it auto-discover your live chat

    Start your YouTube live stream as usual. Pop Magics automatically finds the active live chat for your broadcast — no video IDs or chat URLs to copy around.

  3. Enable Super Chats, Stickers & memberships

    Turn on the events you want to celebrate: Super Chats, Super Stickers, new memberships, and membership gifts. Each one becomes a 3D bubble when it lands.

  4. Set your tiers

    Build amount-based tiers and give each its own bubble size and style. A $2 Super Chat gets a gentle pop; a $100 one gets the full cinematic treatment.

  5. Test it

    Fire a test alert for each event and confirm each bubble behaves. Adjust, re-test, and you're ready to go live.

Sparko tip: Keep tier styling distinct so a small tip and a big one read differently at a glance.
