Says they will get back to you if they believe you will be a good partner. It says:

Partner status requires that:

The majority of the streamers' content is "family-friendly" and something Chess.com would be proud to put its name and brand behind; all shows on ChessTV must be "PG" rated.
You stream regularly (at least twice a week), even if that stream is not embedded. Partners must be consistent users of Chess.com, streaming regularly, even when not featured on Chess.com/TV.
You have built a strong following (subject to review by Chess.com Staff). This usually means at least 150 followers/subscribers on your given platform (Twitch, YouTube, etc) or an established reputation in the larger chess community.
Content streamed must be from Chess.com.

Then just stream. I think the partnered steamer is what it takes to be listed and get the badge, though I could be wrong.

They also specifically state on the page about streaming that they don't respond to all requests. So if they don't respond, then you likely don't qualify.
