Available in: Premium. Includes everything in Free and Player+.
Premium is the top FACEITSync plan. It unlocks the tools that only do something with an audience watching: two overlays, the ad timer, the streamsniper check, unlimited match highlights, a much longer delay before a prediction is resolved, and AI chat answers without the monthly allowance.
Switch everything on in five steps
Do these in order. Step 3 is the one people skip, and it is why a fresh Premium account can feel like nothing happened.
- Check that Premium is active. In your dashboard, click Settings in the left sidebar, then Payments. Under Premium status you should see ACTIVE and the date it runs to. The page reads your account, not your login, so you never have to sign out and back in after paying.
- Look at the sidebar. The small stars next to Lobby Teams Overlay, Overlay Generator, Smart Ads, Streamsniper Checker and Match Highlights are gone, and so is the orange lock box on those pages.
- Open each page and switch the feature on. Buying Premium unlocks the pages, it turns nothing on. Every switch on them starts off and stays there until you flip it.
- Make the bot a moderator. Type
/mod FACEITSyncin your own Twitch chat. Only a moderator may read who is sitting in your chat, so the Streamsniper Checker does nothing without it. - Say how delayed your stream is. Settings, then Stream delay, under How much delay does your stream have? With Premium that list reaches 30 minutes instead of stopping at 30 seconds.
Apart from the Overlay Generator, none of these pages has a save button: every change applies the moment you make it.
Where each feature sits
Lobby Teams Overlay
Shows both teams of your FACEIT match side by side with every player's level, ELO and form, so your chat sees what the match is made of before the first round starts.
Drag the Drag to OBS box into your scene, or paste the address into a browser source yourself: 1920 by 1080, transparent background on, source at the top of your list. It stays invisible while no match runs and fades in on its own at match start, and Test in OBS plays a demo so you do not have to wait for one. Without Premium that address answers with an empty page rather than an error, so the source simply looks black. See Lobby Teams Overlay.
Overlay Generator
Assembles your stats overlay out of form fields, with a preview already filled with your own FACEIT data: shape, size, colours and which values appear. Then you copy one browser source link into OBS.
It is the exception to the no-save-button rule: the link appears only after you have saved a layout, and without Premium neither the Save button nor the link is there. Do not confuse it with Overlay Studio, a separate builder in a closed beta that a Premium purchase does not open. See Overlay Generator.
Streamsniper Checker
Tells you when somebody from the FACEIT match you are in right now is also sitting in your Twitch chat, the one thing you cannot check yourself while playing.
One requirement, three settings. The requirement is the moderator right from step 4, and a yellow note sits on the page while it is missing. The settings save themselves as you change them:
- How much watch time makes it suspicious? - 1 to 5 minutes before anybody is named.
- How often may the same person be reported? - 5, 10, 15 or 20 minutes between two announcements.
- Who should we check? - the opposing team only, or your own team as well.
You and your moderators can check on demand with !fscheck, and the page keeps a list of who was found. See Streamsniper Detection.
Smart Ads
Runs your Twitch ad break the moment your match starts, so the ads are out of the way before the first round instead of landing in a clutch. You pick the length, from 30 up to 180 seconds; the page recommends 180, because only that keeps a full hour free of pre-rolls.
Two conditions come from Twitch, not from us: only affiliates and partners may run ads, and only while the stream is live. Smart Ads works whether or not you run predictions. See Smart Ads.
Unlimited match highlights
Free is capped at 4 clips a month, Player+ at 25, Premium not at all. Everything else is identical on every plan, and on all of them highlights are opt in. Open Match Highlights and answer Should we automatically cut highlights from your matches? with the switch. The card beside it shows what is left this month; with Premium it says unlimited. See Automatic Highlight Clips.
A longer delay before a prediction is resolved
Automatic predictions work on every plan. Premium changes how long FACEITSync may wait before resolving one, so your chat is not told the result while your stream is still minutes behind the game. Without Premium the delay stops at 30 seconds, with Premium it reaches 30 minutes. Untouched, it sits at 15 seconds.
Premium also unlocks Different delay for matchmaking or leagues?, where one tournament gets its own value. Between two maps of a series the delay is capped at five minutes, because the prediction on the next map cannot open before this one is resolved. See Automatic Twitch Predictions.
AI chat answers without the monthly limit
The bot can answer in real sentences instead of a fixed template. Free and Player+ share the same allowance of 20 AI answers per month and per account; Premium removes it and adds the tone the bot writes in, the language it answers in and how long the answers are. The !fs command never counts against the allowance. See Twitch Chat Commands.
Coach and Priority Support
- Coach, the advanced match analysis, appears with 2 tokens on Player+ and 8 on Premium, marked as coming soon. It is announced, not available.
- Priority Support is listed as a Premium benefit, but no response time is promised or measured. If support speed is your only reason to upgrade, it is not a good one.
Buying, cancelling and changing your plan
- New subscriptions go through Stripe, the only checkout. Older PayPal subscriptions keep running, but no new one starts there.
- Settings, then Payments holds all of it: your status, the date it runs to, Cancel subscription, Undo cancellation and Manage Payments, the provider's own portal for invoices and card changes.
- Cancel whenever you like and keep Premium to the end of the period you paid for. Buying again before it expires takes the cancellation back rather than charging you twice.
- There is no downgrade. While Premium runs, including a cancelled one that has not expired, a Player+ purchase is refused with a note to end Premium first.
What happens when Premium ends
Nothing is deleted and nothing is reset. Your settings stay as you left them, and only the values above the free limits stop applying: a delay of 20 minutes falls back to 30 seconds, the AI returns to the standard tone and your own language, the teams overlay source goes blank, and new highlights count against 4 a month. Subscribe again and your old values apply again without you touching a field. A failed payment is a different case: the provider retries it and your access keeps working meanwhile.
When a Premium feature does not work
Work down this list in order. Almost every case is one of the first two.
- Is Premium actually active? Settings, then Payments. A status of Creator Access or Beta Tester means your Premium comes from a granted role and ends when that role does.
- Is the feature switched on? This is the usual answer. Paying unlocks the page; the switch on it still starts off.
- An overlay stays black. Check that the address in OBS is the current one, because regenerating the token invalidates the old link. The teams overlay is also invisible on purpose while no match runs.
- The streamsniper check finds nobody. The bot is not a moderator: type
/mod FACEITSync, and watch the yellow note on the page disappear. If it is already gone, your watch time may be set higher than your viewers stay. - No ad ran at match start. Twitch runs ads only for affiliates and partners and only while you are live, and it enforces its own waiting time between two breaks.
- A prediction resolved too early. A delay above 30 seconds applies only while Premium is active, and between two maps of a series five minutes is the cap.
