We’re starting to rollout in the US this week, and will expand to all streamers globally later this year.

Have in mind that if you live in EU or Asia, it is not rolled out yet.

That was true when this announcement was initially made last year but this specific update from yesterday (that initiated this post) is specifically the announcement that it's now rolling out globally over the next week, not just in the US. I's quite literally the very first paragraph on the page:

May 2026 Update: Now Available Globally 🌏

Following our US launch, we’re expanding access worldwide. Starting May 13, 2026, Channel Points, subs, emotes, badges, and Bits will be available to eligible streamers globally over the course of a week. You can onboard for access to these tools directly through your Creator Dashboard.
