WGT GLOBAL – Official Streamer Terms and Conditions
Last Updated: April 2025
Introduction: These Terms and Conditions (the "Terms") govern the requirements and expectations for individuals applying to become an official live streamer with WGT GLOBAL (the "Agency"). By submitting an application or participating as an official streamer for WGT GLOBAL, you (the "Streamer" or "Applicant") acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. Please read this document carefully before applying. If you do not agree to these Terms, you should not apply or participate as a streamer with WGT GLOBAL.
1. Eligibility to Apply as a Streamer
To ensure a safe and compliant streaming community, all applicants must meet the following eligibility criteria:
Age Requirement: You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to apply. Minors are not permitted to become official streamers.
Legal Capacity: You must have the legal right to enter into this agreement. This means you are not barred by any laws or prior agreements from participating as an independent streamer.
Platform Account: You must have, or be willing to create, a valid account on the required third-party streaming platform (e.g., Bigo Live) and remain in good standing on that platform (no existing bans or violations).
Equipment and Access: You must have the necessary equipment (such as a smartphone or computer with a camera and microphone) and reliable internet access to live stream at a quality acceptable to the platform’s standards.
Accurate Information: All information you provide in your application must be truthful, accurate, and complete. Providing false or misleading information can lead to immediate rejection of your application or termination of your streamer status.
WGT GLOBAL reserves the right to reject any application that does not meet the above criteria or if we determine, in our sole discretion, that an applicant is not suitable for our program.
2. Application and Onboarding Process
When you apply to become an official streamer with WGT GLOBAL, the following process and conditions will typically apply:
1. Submission of Application: Complete all required application forms or online submissions provided by WGT GLOBAL. This may include personal details, contact information, relevant experience, and your streaming profile or ID on the third-party platform. By applying, you agree to these Terms and any platform-specific terms required by our partner platforms.
2. Review and Verification: After submission, WGT GLOBAL will review your application. We may verify your identity and details (you might be asked for identification documents or to perform a brief interview or audition stream). During this stage, we assess whether you meet our eligibility criteria and community standards.
3. Acceptance or Rejection: WGT GLOBAL will notify you of the outcome. If your application is not successful, WGT GLOBAL is not required to provide detailed feedback. If accepted, you will receive an official welcome communication with further instructions.
4. Onboarding and Training: Accepted streamers will undergo an onboarding process. This may include:
Setting up or linking your streaming account under the WGT GLOBAL agency, if applicable.
Guidance on using the streaming platform (such as Bigo Live) and an overview of important platform rules and features.
Training or resource materials on best practices, community guidelines, and how to maximize your success as a streamer (e.g., tips on content, scheduling, and fan engagement).
5. Agreement to Platform Terms: During onboarding, you must also agree to any additional terms required by the streaming platform or by WGT GLOBAL’s program (e.g., signing a host agreement if the platform requires one through the agency). You are separately responsible for adhering to Bigo Live’s Terms of Service and Community Guidelines (or those of whichever platform you stream on).
6. Profile and Branding: WGT GLOBAL may assist you in setting up your profile as an official streamer. You may be identified as a member of the “WGT GLOBAL Family/Agency” on the platform. Any use of WGT GLOBAL branding or mention of our agency in your profile must follow our branding guidelines.
Note: The application and onboarding process may be updated or modified by WGT GLOBAL at any time.
