Case Study: Twitch achieves rapid integration and massive developer time savings with Recurly

Twitch - Customer Case Study

Twitch needed a reliable, scalable subscription and payments platform and chose Recurly after evaluating options for a clean, unified API, strong scalability, and responsive support. The team wanted to avoid reinventing payment mechanics and reduce the engineering overhead of integrating with multiple gateways.

Twitch implemented Recurly (via Recurly.js) and completed the integration in under a day, benefiting from clear docs, prebuilt libraries, and an intuitive admin interface. The switch freed engineering resources, dramatically reduced development time compared with a homegrown gateway solution, lowered customer service load, and let Twitch focus on product and service improvements.
