Subathon timer for Streamlabs

Keep your Streamlabs tip page and your alerts: Marathon-Timer listens to your Streamlabs donations and turns each one into time on your countdown, next to your subs and bits from Twitch, YouTube and Kick.

How it works on Streamlabs

Link your Streamlabs account and every donation received through your Streamlabs page or tip form adds time to the countdown, in your own currency. Donations arrive in real time through the Streamlabs socket, with duplicate protection built in.

You decide how much time each event adds, and the countdown does the rest. Everything is visible live on your OBS overlay, and the full history stays in your dashboard once the subathon is over.

Streamlabs and Marathon-Timer, side by side

Your donations, read in real time

You paste your Streamlabs socket token once in Connections. Each donation then reaches the timer within seconds, with the donor's name and the amount in your currency, converted into time by your own rate card.

Nothing to change in Streamlabs

Your tip page, your alerts and your Streamlabs Desktop scenes stay as they are. The Marathon-Timer overlay is a browser source like any other, so it fits in Streamlabs Desktop as well as in OBS.

Never counted twice

A donation that Streamlabs sends again after a reconnection is recognised and ignored. If the same donation also comes through another service, it is only counted once.

Every platform on the same clock

According to their public documentation, the Streamlabs timer covers Twitch and YouTube but not Kick, and its advanced features sit behind the Ultra plan at $19 a month. Marathon-Timer adds Kick, TipeeeStream, StreamElements and Ko-fi to the same countdown, for free.

A timer that survives a crash

The remaining time is calculated on our server, not counted down in your browser. If OBS or Streamlabs Desktop crashes in the middle of the subathon, you reload the overlay and it is exactly where it should be.

What you get

⏱️

Real-time countdown

The clock extends the moment an event lands on Streamlabs — no refresh, no delay, no manual adjustment.

🎥

OBS overlay

A transparent browser source you drop into OBS or Streamlabs Desktop, with 15 themes, custom colours, fonts and CSS.

🎯

Sub & donation goals

Goal boards next to your timer, resetting daily, weekly, monthly or for the whole subathon — each with its own overlay.

Set up in three steps

  1. Connect Streamlabs

    Sign in with Twitch, then link your Streamlabs account from the Connections page. It takes about a minute.

  2. Set your rate card

    Choose the time added per subscription tier, per 100 bits and per unit of currency donated — plus a maximum duration if you want one.

  3. Paste the overlay into OBS

    Copy your overlay link, add a browser source in OBS at 800×200, and the timer is live on your stream.

Streamlabs subathon timer — FAQ

No. The connection uses the official API, so there is nothing to install on your channel and no password to hand over. You can revoke the access at any time.

Can I combine Streamlabs with other platforms?

Yes. Twitch, YouTube and Kick subs, plus Streamlabs, TipeeeStream, StreamElements and Ko-fi donations, can all feed the same countdown at the same time.
