Kick Drops

Farm Kick Drops Automatically

Lurkloot is a free, open-source Kick Drops farmer. It hears about new campaigns the moment they start, holds a watch session on a channel that counts, and claims your drops and daily challenge cards without you opening Kick at all.

What it does

A Kick Drops farmer built around how Kick actually runs campaigns

Kick drops are less predictable than Twitch's. Campaigns turn up with little warning, some windows are short, and the reward you want may only be dropping on a handful of channels that happen to be live right now. A polling loop that checks every few minutes finds out too late.

  • Tracks live Kick campaigns and which channels in the category are streaming.
  • Opens a watch session on a channel that advances the drop you have not earned.
  • Claims Kick drops and gamification challenge cards as their goals complete.
  • Prefers channels you already follow when the choice is otherwise a coin flip.
  • Keeps a Kick-only Idle Watchlist for the hours when no campaign is farmable.

Kick-specific

It hears a campaign start, instead of waiting to find it

Kick broadcasts campaign events on a realtime channel, and Lurkloot subscribes to it for every category you farm. When a campaign opens, the extension is pushed a signal within seconds and starts farming on the next tick rather than on the next poll.

That is what makes short flash-drop windows worth chasing at all. Polling alone still works — the socket is an accelerator, not a dependency, and it reconnects with backoff if Kick drops it — but a campaign that only runs for part of an evening is the case where the difference actually shows up in your inventory.

Setup

How to farm Kick Drops automatically

  1. Sign in to Kick as usual

    Install the extension and log in to kick.com normally. Lurkloot uses that session directly — it never asks for your Kick password and never copies your cookies anywhere.

  2. Turn Kick on in the popup

    Each platform has its own switch, so you can farm Kick alone, Twitch alone, or both at once with separate campaign priorities and excluded channels.

  3. Walk away

    It picks a live channel in the campaign's category, holds the watch session, and claims drops and daily challenge cards as their goals are met.

AFK

Farm Kick Drops while AFK

Lurkloot opens Kick's viewer connection straight from the extension's background worker, so the watch timer advances with no player, no video decoding and no tab taking up space in your window.

Worth stating plainly, because it is a real difference from the Twitch side: that connection is opened by the extension rather than by kick.com, and Kick can refuse it on that basis. When it does, Lurkloot sees the watch go unhealthy and falls back to a pinned, muted kick.com tab within a tick or two. You keep farming either way — it just is not tabless in that session.

Rewards

Automatic Kick Drops claiming — and the daily challenges

Drops claimed on completion

As soon as a Kick drop's watch requirement is satisfied, it is claimed. No window to catch, and nothing sitting unclaimed because you were asleep when the timer finished.

Daily challenge cards

Kick's daily gamification challenges are opened the moment their goal is reached. This is the reward people most often lose to simply forgetting, and it is the one a farmer is best placed to pick up for free.

Separate from Twitch

Kick claiming has its own toggle. Farm both platforms with different rules, or leave Kick collecting quietly while Twitch is switched off entirely.

Priorities and exclusions

Order Kick campaigns by hand or by strategy, exclude channels you would rather not appear on, and pick which categories are in scope.

Browsers

A Kick Drops extension for every Chromium browser

Install it once from the Chrome Web Store and it runs in Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera and Vivaldi; Firefox builds live on GitHub Releases. Twitch and Kick are managed from the same popup, so you are not running two tools that fight over your tabs.

Headless

Headless Kick Drops farming in Docker

Kick farms headlessly too, and the interesting part is how. Kick sits behind Cloudflare protection that inspects the TLS and HTTP/2 fingerprint of every request, so an ordinary server-side HTTP client is rejected outright before it reaches the API. Lurkloot's CLI sends a genuine Chrome fingerprint instead, which reaches both Kick's API and its viewer socket with no browser running.

Authorization uses Kick's smart-TV link flow — the same one Kick's own TV app uses. The CLI prints a kick.com/tv/login URL and a six-digit code; you confirm it on a device where you are already signed in, and the session token is stored locally. The CLI requires no export and nothing pasted into a terminal. An optional, user-initiated session-token transfer from the extension is also available if you want to move an existing browser session.

Trust

Open source, no account, no telemetry

Lurkloot has no server, so there is nowhere for your Kick session to be sent. It runs locally, uses the login you already have, and stores what it needs on your own machine. Every line of it is onGitHub under Apache 2.0 — read it, build it yourself, and check.

It is an unofficial tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Kick. Automating viewing may be against a platform's terms of service, so use it at your own discretion. The privacy policy covers what is stored and where.

Kick Drops, answered.

What people ask before farming Kick Drops automatically.

How does Lurkloot farm Kick Drops automatically?

It follows Kick's live drops campaigns, picks a channel streaming the campaign's category right now, and holds a viewer session on it so the drop's watch timer advances. As campaigns finish or a streamer ends their broadcast, it moves to the next channel that still counts toward a reward you have not earned.

How fast does it notice a new Kick campaign?

Usually within seconds. Alongside its regular polling, Lurkloot subscribes to Kick's realtime campaign channel and gets pushed a signal the moment a campaign starts in a category you farm — which is what makes short flash-drop windows catchable at all instead of being missed between polls.

Does it claim Kick Drops and daily challenges?

Yes. Kick drops are claimed as soon as their watch requirement is met, and Kick's daily challenge cards are opened the moment their goal is reached rather than sitting unclaimed until you remember them. Both are on by default and can be switched off independently of the Twitch side.

Does Kick farming need a visible tab?

Usually not. Lurkloot opens Kick's viewer socket directly from the extension's background worker, which advances the watch timer with no video playing. Because that socket is opened from the extension rather than from kick.com itself, Kick can occasionally refuse the handshake — when that happens Lurkloot notices the watch is unhealthy and falls back to a pinned, muted kick.com tab, so farming carries on either way.

Can I farm Kick Drops headless, in Docker?

Yes, with one caveat worth knowing. Kick's Cloudflare protection inspects the TLS and HTTP/2 fingerprint of every request, so a plain Node request is rejected outright — the CLI's default transport sends a real Chrome fingerprint instead and reaches Kick's API and viewer socket with no browser. Authorization uses Kick's smart-TV link flow: the CLI prints a kick.com/tv/login URL and a six-digit code that you confirm on a device where you are already signed in.

Do I need a Kick password or a cookie export?

Neither. In the browser the extension reuses the Kick session you are already logged into. Headless, the smart-TV link approval hands back a session token directly, so the CLI requires no export. An optional, user-initiated session-token transfer from the extension is also available if you want to move an existing session.

Farming Twitch as well?

Twitch works on different machinery — inventory-aware discovery, minute-watched heartbeats and tiered rewards. The Twitch Drops farmer page goes through it.
