What to know

Do I need a new URL after a match?

No. One personal URL is reused permanently.

Why did the stats not update immediately?

FACEIT data appears after the platform publishes the processed match result.

Can I test the widget before OBS?

Yes. Open the personal URL in a regular browser and configure it there.

How do I change the player?

Select a different public FACEIT profile and open the required widget.

Build a higher-quality FACEIT stream

Choose a layout, add its personal URL to OBS and let Upceit keep the data current while you play.
