Streaming for beginners
Your first stream is a browser tab, not a studio.
Make a free account, open Go live and share your screen with game audio. Add your mic and camera if you want them. Nothing to install, nothing to configure. When you outgrow the browser, plug in OBS with a stream key and keep the same channel.

Quick answer
Create a free account, open Go live and stream from your browser. Share your screen with game audio, add your mic and camera, give the stream a title and a game tag, then go live. Prefer OBS? Paste a stream key. When you end, keep the recording as a video.Product facts reviewed July 18, 2026
Your first stream
Go live in four steps.
Most people stall at the setup, so we removed it. The whole path from no account to live fits in one sitting.
Open Go live
It sits in the sidebar. Pick browser streaming, or OBS with a stream key if you already use it.
Title and game tag
Say what you are doing and tag the game. The tag puts your stream next to that game for players who follow it.
Go live
Play, read chat, end when you are done. Keep the recording as a video so the stream keeps working after you log off.
Two ways to stream
Start in the browser. Add OBS later.
Browser streaming gives you mic, camera and screen share with game audio out of the box. OBS is great software, and Frenz supports it with a stream key the day you want scenes and overlays.
While you are live
Chat, support and clips come with the stream.
You get the same live tools as established creators from stream one. Nothing to apply for, nothing to unlock.
Stream chat
Viewers talk to you while you play. Reading chat out loud is the easiest way to keep a small stream alive.
Subscriptions
Viewers can subscribe to support you once you have people who keep coming back.
Tips
Anyone watching can send a tip during the stream. A good moment can pay for the pizza.
Quality picker
Viewers choose the playback quality that fits their connection, so shaky wifi can still watch you.
Clips to the feed
Your stream is kept as a video, so you can cut the best moments into clips afterwards. Tag the frenz who were there and the clip shows on their profiles too.
The honest part
Growing an audience takes longer than you think.
Anyone who promises otherwise is selling something. Here is what actually moves the needle, and where Frenz gives a small channel a fair shot.
What actually grows a channel
Consistency. A schedule you can keep, the same games so the same people find you, and showing up when three viewers feels like a crowd. Clips between streams keep you visible on the days you are offline.
No guaranteed viewersNo overnight growthNo get rich streaming
Promises you will never hear from us. What we can do is make sure the right people get a chance to find you.

Your stream is placed next to the games people already follow.
Streams sit beside their games Game tags
The recording stays as a video After the live

Streaming for beginners
Questions new streamers ask.
Direct answers about gear, cost, OBS, titles, recordings and what growth really looks like.
Do I need OBS or a capture card to start streaming?
No. Frenz streams straight from your browser with your mic, camera and screen share with game audio. When you want scenes and overlays later, switch to OBS with a stream key.
How much does it cost to start streaming on Frenz?
Nothing. The account is free, streaming is free and viewers watch free. Frenz runs in the browser, and phones use the mobile web app.
What equipment do I need for my first stream?
A computer that runs your game and a microphone. A camera is optional. Browser streaming captures your game through screen share, so you can skip capture software entirely.
What should I put in the title and game tag?
Say what you are doing in plain words and tag the game you are playing. The game tag places your stream next to that game, where players who follow it can find you.
What happens to my stream when it ends?
You can keep the recording as a video, so people who missed the live can still watch it. You can also share clips of the best stream moments to the feed.
Can viewers support me with money?
Yes. Viewers can subscribe to your channel and send tips during a stream. Treat that as a bonus at the start, not a plan. Income depends on your audience and is never guaranteed.
How do people find a brand new stream?
Through the games. Frenz puts streams next to the games people follow, so a correct game tag matters more than a big name. Clips shared to the feed give people another way in.
How fast can I grow an audience?
Slower than the success stories suggest. Consistency wins: a schedule you can keep, the same games, and clips between streams. Nobody can promise growth, including us.
