The popularity of Twitch eclipsed that of its general-interest counterpart. In October 2013, the website had 45 million unique viewers :38 and by February 2014, it was considered the fourth largest source of peak Internet traffic in the United States. At the same time, Justin.tv's parent company was re-branded as Twitch Interactive to represent the shift in focus – Justin.tv was shut down in August 2014. That month, the service was acquired by Amazon for US$970 million, which later led to the introduction of synergies with the company's subscription service Amazon Prime. Twitch later acquired Curse, an operator of online video gaming communities and introduced means to purchase games through links on streams along with a program allowing streamers to receive commissions on the sales of games that they play.

By 2015, Twitch had more than 1.5 million broadcasters and 100 million viewers per month. As of 2017, Twitch remained the leading live streaming video service for video games in the US, and had an advantage over YouTube Gaming. As of May 2018, it had 2.2 million broadcasters monthly and 15 million daily active users, with around a million average concurrent users. As of May 2018, Twitch had over 27,000 partner channels.
durumu olmayanların bile yayıncılara bağış yapmasını bir türlü anlayamadığım canlı yayın platformu
başlarda bu ne kadar saçma bir site diye eleştirdiğim, sonrasında yemek yerken izlemekten vazgeçemediğim websitesidir. 2014 yılında amazon tarafından 970 milyon dolara satın alınmıştır.
