The fundamental differences between streaming on TikTok alone without an agency and joining a top official partner agency (Core Dijital) lie in access to OBS streaming keys, algorithmic Discover support, and faster technical support. Streamers without agencies have to wait for high follower thresholds to stream from a computer and lack official support regarding account restrictions. Streamers who join an official partner agency, on the other hand, receive an OBS key even with 0 followers, achieve 30% more Discover impressions, and can have unfair bans resolved within 2 hours.

Does Joining an Agency Reduce a Publisher's Revenue?
Many publishers are hesitant about agencies because they fear a commission will be deducted from their revenue. However, according to official partnership rules, agencies cannot take a share of your revenue.
- Independent Streamer: Withdraws the value of the diamonds earned directly from their wallet.
- Core Digital Member: Receives the value of earned diamonds directly, and can additionally increase income by 20% to 40% thanks to monthly performance bonuses and gift events offered by the agency.
Glossary

TikTok Official Freedom of Contract
According to official TikTok LIVE rules, agency registration does not prevent a publisher from maintaining control of their account. You can change agencies or terminate your agency membership with a single click at any time. Core Digital guarantees these rights under the principle of freedom of contract.
