How do I send Shoutouts?

You can use pixiv Points to purchase reactions called "emojis", which you can then send as shoutouts to the streamer. (To learn more about pixiv Points, please refer to this page.)
Emojis sent with the Shoutout feature are special animated emoticons that differ from ordinary emojis.

Shoutouts cannot be canceled once sent.
