A plan for every broadcast.

Broadcast Hours are the total time your live streams are active across all channels.

Example: If you stream for 2 hours on one channel, you use 2 Broadcast Hours. If you stream for 2 hours on 3 channels at the same time, you use 6 Broadcast Hours.

Viewer Hours are the total watch time from all viewers. Example: If 10 viewers watch a live stream for 1 hour, you use 10 Viewer Hours. If 100 viewers watch for 30 minutes, you use 50 Viewer Hours.

Recording Hours are used when live streams are saved as cloud recordings.

Example: If you record a 2-hour live stream, you use 2 Recording Hours.

No. Hours are based on time only.

The best plan depends on how often you stream, how long you stream, how many people watch, how many live channels you need, and how much recording time you need. If you stream regularly, choose a monthly or yearly subscription plan that matches your normal usage. If you stream only once in a while, or if you only need extra resources for a short time, a one-time plan may be a better fit. Monthly and yearly plan resources reset every month. Resources from one-time purchases do not expire.

No. Resources from monthly and yearly subscription plans reset every month. Unused Broadcast Hours, Viewer Hours, and Recording Hours from subscription plans do not roll over to the next month.

No. Resources from one-time purchases do not expire. You can use them when you need them, which makes them a good option when your streaming needs are not regular.

No. Viewer Hours are only used when viewers watch the stream. A live stream with no viewers can still use Broadcast Hours because the stream is active.

Yes. Test streams use Broadcast Hours because the live channel is active. Short test streams are recommended before important events.

Yes. Private, protected, free, and pay-per-view streams use resources the same way. Broadcast Hours count the live streaming time, and Viewer Hours count the viewer watch time.

Viewer Hours and simultaneous viewers matter most for large events. Broadcast Hours matter most for long streams or many live channels.

Broadcast Hours matter most for 24/7 streaming because the live channel stays active for long periods. Viewer Hours also matter if many people watch the stream.

Upgrade your subscription if your streaming needs are ongoing — for example, if you stream every day or every week, run regular live classes, church services, shows, or events, or often need more Broadcast Hours, Viewer Hours, or Recording Hours.

Buy a one-time plan if you only need extra resources once in a while — for example, for one large event, a temporary spike in viewers, a short campaign, or when you do not want to change your regular monthly plan.

Subscription resources reset every month and are best for regular streaming needs. One-time resources do not expire and are best for extra usage, special events, or occasional bursts.
