Stream ticker: a scrolling news ticker overlay for your live stream
A lower-third text bar for OBS, Streamlabs, and vMix. Type your messages — results, announcements, sponsor credits — and they run as a scrolling ticker over your video on a transparent overlay you can update live from any device. Free, in your browser, no download.
Fully customizable
Personalize with team colors, logos, and backgrounds for a polished look that matches your brand or event.
Anyone can keep score
Delegate scorekeeping by sharing a simple link or QR code. Any team member can update scores from their own device.
No expensive hardware
Save thousands by eliminating dedicated scoreboard equipment. Transform screens you already own into scoring displays.
5 seconds to setup
Get scoring immediately with one-click setup. No complicated configuration—just select your sport and start.
Live results and updates for sports streams
Scroll standings, finishers, fixtures, and mid-game updates under your broadcast while the action plays on. Pair it with a scoreboard overlay for the score itself — the ticker handles everything that doesn't fit in a scorebug.
Announcements for events, tournaments and community TV
Schedule changes, court assignments, sponsor thank-yous, donation totals, housekeeping — one scrolling bar keeps your audience informed at conferences, charity streams, church services, and school events.
Update it from your phone while the stream runs
The ticker is controlled from a simple admin page. Edit the messages on a phone or laptop, press update, and every viewer sees the new text within a second — no scene reload, no re-export, no interruption.
Features
Type your messages on a phone or laptop and hit update — every screen and stream changes at the same instant, with no scene reload.
The public link renders the bar on a fully transparent page — drop it into OBS, Streamlabs, or vMix and it sits cleanly over your video.
Write each update on its own line — results, announcements, sponsor credits — and they scroll past, joined by a separator you choose.
A pinned label at the left of the bar — "LIVE", your event name, or a sponsor credit — that stays put while the messages scroll past.
Flip the master switch and the ticker slides smoothly off the public display — perfect for breaks, replays, and clean-frame segments.
Anchor the bar to the bottom or top of the frame, pick one of three bar heights, and set the scroll speed to match your broadcast.
A separate scorekeeper link opens just the message editor and the master switch — a helper can update the ticker without touching your setup.
Restyle the bar gradient, the title box, and the text to match your stream. Custom colors show on the public display with a paid plan.
Upload your own PNG strip as the bar background, with a text offset for baked-in title zones. Shows on the public display with a paid plan.
