# Introduction

## What is Indie Raid?

Indieraid is a game discovery platform that pays streamers for playing games that are listed on the platform.

**Why game developers** [❤️](https://emojipedia.org/heavy-black-heart/)**Indie Raid:**

1. **Playtesting** - the game developers can learn how to improve in their games by watching streamers playing their games.
2. **User acquisition** - streamers have viewers of all sizes. The games that they’re playing will be marketed to the viewers in the most genuine way possible.
3. **100% transparent reporting** - the game developers are able to see gameplay footage of every streaming of their games, and know exactly how their marketing budget is spent.

**Why streamers** [❤️](https://emojipedia.org/heavy-black-heart/)**Indie Raid:**

1. **Consistent source of income** - We are constantly adding new games to our site, and streamers will always have games that they can play and earn money from.
2. **Fair pay** - We pay the streamers based on how many viewers they have, how long they play the game, and how many clicks they garner. The streamers’ earnings are immediately updated after a streaming session is completed.
