OTT storefront platform

One catalog that sells every title four ways

A white-label OTT storefront for operators who do not want one plan to gate everything. The same title can sit inside a subscription, be rented for a window, be bought outright or open on an ad-supported tier, while content partners list their own catalogs beside yours under a revenue share you define. Android, iOS, web, admin and partner console are included.

What is an Amazon Prime Video clone?

An Amazon Prime Video clone is a ready-made OTT platform built around choice of purchase model. Rather than one subscription unlocking everything, each title can be included in a plan, rented for a limited window, sold outright, or opened with ads, and partner catalogs can list next to your own under their own commercial terms.

The hard part is entitlements. A viewer might hold a plan that includes a title, a rental that has days to start and hours to finish, a permanent purchase and an ad-supported fallback, all against the same asset. Resolving the right one on every play request, across devices, is what separates an OTT platform from a video gallery, and that engine is already built.

The package ships as source code with a Laravel backend, Flutter mobile apps, a web platform, a partner console and an admin platform. Pricing, rental windows, partner splits, plan structure and regional availability are yours to set, and we set up Smart TV apps and DRM around your plan, with scope confirmed with us.

What Amazon Prime Video is, and what a clone of it means

Prime Video is a streaming service that mixes several ways of paying. Some titles are included for members of a paid program, some can be rented for a limited time, some can be bought outright, and other channels from third parties can be added and billed separately. The same catalog therefore behaves like a subscription library and a video store at once.

A Prime Video clone, in the sense that matters commercially, is that multi-model storefront. You do not copy a catalog or a membership; you run software in which every title can carry its own mix of access rules, in which partners can list titles beside yours, and in which regional prices and rights differ by country. The viewer chooses how to pay, and the platform works out what they are entitled to watch.

Tour the Amazon Prime Video clone, role by role

Each role works in its own side of the same product. The screens come from the working demo.

  1. Entitlements and pricing

    This is the heart of the product. A title is not simply free or paid. It can sit in a plan, be rented, be sold outright or open with ads, and the platform works out which right applies each time someone presses play. Operators set all of it from the console.

    • Include a title in one or several subscription tiers
    • Rent a title with one window to start and a shorter window to finish
    • Sell a title or a boxset as a permanent purchase
    • Open selected titles on an ad-supported tier in chosen territories
    • Attach coupons to plans, titles or partner catalogs
    • Change availability, price and model per region
    Phone profile picker with a kids tile, a smiley avatar and an add profile buttonPhone sign-in screen with email and password fields and OTP and Google login optionsPhone profile menu with profile switch, activate TV and web, my list, settings and logout
    Each household member picks a profile, including a kids profile, before browsing the streaming catalog.
  2. Viewers

    Viewers see a storefront more than a subscription wall. They can browse, decide how to pay for what they want tonight, and keep watching across phone, browser and television. Signing in on a TV is a QR scan rather than a typing exercise.

    • Sign in by email, social account or OTP, or scan a QR code to link a television
    • Switch between household profiles that keep separate history and recommendations
    • Browse merchandised rows including trending, new release and leaving-soon
    • Open a film, series, extra or priced boxset and choose how to pay
    • Watch live channels that are free, plan-gated or ticketed
    • Continue on another device from the same point
    Phone profile picker with a kids tile, a smiley avatar and an add profile buttonPhone sign-in screen with email and password fields and OTP and Google login optionsPhone profile menu with profile switch, activate TV and web, my list, settings and logout
    Each household member picks a profile, including a kids profile, before browsing the streaming catalog.
  3. Content partners

    Partners are the way a storefront looks larger than its licensing budget. They list their own catalogs next to yours, under terms you set, and get paid from measured viewing. Their console shows only their own numbers, which keeps commercial terms private.

    • Submit films, series or live content for approval
    • Check the approval status of each submission
    • Review performance for their own titles only
    • See measured watch minutes and what they are owed
    • Request a payout that routes to operator approval
    • Use programmatic ingest for large catalogs
    Producer dashboard with overview tiles, a performance chart and a most watched content panel
    Producers see views, reactions and revenue for their titles on a dashboard of tiles and charts.
  4. Operators

    A storefront with four ways to pay is harder to run than a single-plan service, so the console carries as much weight as the viewer app. Staff roles are scoped, which means a content manager and a finance approver see different tools.

    • Manage catalog, metadata and artwork for owned and partner titles
    • Approve partners and agree the terms they are settled on
    • Price plans, rentals and purchases and set territory rules
    • Reconcile watch minutes and run approval-gated payouts
    • Control app versions, feature flags and region availability
    • Report on revenue by monetization model
    • Assign scoped roles to content, partner and finance staff
    Admin dashboard with revenue and user tiles, a donut chart of top genres and revenue panels
    The admin dashboard tracks revenue, subscribers and catalog totals, with a donut chart of the most watched genres.

Try the Amazon Prime Video clone live demo

The demo is a live deployment of the OTT storefront with demo branding and sample titles, not your final look. Four logins are open: a viewer on web and Android, a content partner, and an administrator. Rent something as the viewer first, because the way a rental window behaves is the quickest test of the platform.

The Amazon Prime Video clone features each role gets

50 features across 4 roles. The first six of each role are here and the full list is one click away. Nothing is held back for a sales call.

Entitlements and pricing

  • Server-side entitlement engine

    Play rights are resolved on the server for every request, so the client never decides what a viewer is allowed to watch.

  • Plan inclusion

    A title can belong to one or more subscription tiers, which controls which plan holders see it without a purchase.

  • Three billing periods

    Plans can be weekly, monthly or annual, with renewal handling and invoices for each cycle.

  • Catalog and device limits

    Each plan can restrict how much of the library it opens and how many devices may stream.

  • Two-timer rentals

    A rental grants a window to start watching and a shorter window to finish, which suits new releases.

  • Scheduled rental expiry

    Expiry runs as scheduled work, so access ends predictably and the countdown shown to the viewer stays accurate.

7 more Entitlements and pricing features are in the full list.

Viewers

  • Multiple sign-in routes

    Email and password, social login and OTP are supported, so viewers use whichever is quickest on their device.

  • QR television handoff

    Scanning a QR code links a TV session to an account without typing credentials with a remote.

  • Household profiles

    Each profile keeps separate history and recommendations, so one person tastes do not distort another feed.

  • Maturity filtering

    Kids profiles are filtered by maturity rating instead of by a switch a child can flip.

  • Merchandised rows

    Hero banners and rows for trending, new release and leaving-soon titles guide viewers toward what the operator wants seen.

  • Cast and crew browsing

    Viewers can follow a person across titles, as well as browse by genre.

7 more Viewers features are in the full list.

Content partners

  • Partner submission

    Partners submit films, series and live content to the operator rather than publishing directly.

  • Visible approval status

    Each submission shows where it stands, so partners do not have to ask for updates by email.

  • Own-catalog reporting

    Performance is reported at title level for the partner own catalog only.

  • Measured watch minutes

    Viewing is logged per title, which means a partner share is a measurement, not an estimate.

  • Earnings visibility

    What a partner is owed appears alongside the minutes that produced it.

  • Payout requests

    A partner asks for payment from the console, and the request routes to an operator for approval.

5 more Content partners features are in the full list.

Operators

  • Catalog and metadata control

    Manage films, series, seasons, episodes, live channels, metadata and artwork for both owned and partner titles.

  • Partner approval and terms

    Review submitted titles, record the commercial terms and decide what reaches the catalog.

  • Plan configuration

    Set tiers, prices, catalog scope, device limits and renewal behavior from one screen.

  • Rental and purchase pricing

    Set window lengths, per-title prices and entitlement overrides for rentals and outright purchases.

  • Territory rule management

  • Coupon campaigns

    Run discount campaigns scoped to plans, titles, partners or territories.

The Amazon Prime Video clone, step by step

The path through the product, in the order it happens for the people using it.

  1. Step 1: Set the commercial model

    You decide which titles sit in plans, which are rentable or purchasable, where ads apply and what each region sees.

  2. Step 2: Load the catalog

    Add your own titles in the admin platform, ingest metadata through the acquisition API, and approve partner submissions.

  3. Step 3: Viewer chooses how to pay

    On the app or web, a viewer subscribes, rents, buys or watches with ads. Coupons and invoices apply where configured.

  4. Step 4: Entitlement is resolved

    On every play request the engine works out which right applies, so a viewer holding more than one never meets a conflict. Rental expiry runs as scheduled work.

  5. Step 5: Settle with partners

    Watch minutes are logged per title, partner statements are generated and payout runs go through operator approval.

How money moves in an Amazon Prime Video clone

The flow of money, the gateways you can connect and how payouts are handled.

Four payment paths meet in one ledger: a plan renewal, a rental, a purchase and a ticket each create their own invoice, while the ad tier produces no viewer payment at all. Gateways are connected per market using your own merchant accounts, and revenue by model is reported from the same records. For partners, nothing is paid on estimates. Watch minutes are measured per title, an operator reconciles them against agreed terms, and a payout run is approved before money moves.

Running an Amazon Prime Video clone safely: what ships, what is yours

You operate the platform, so legal compliance in each market you serve is yours. This is the tooling that ships in the product. It is not legal advice.

  • Entitlement integrity

    Play rights are resolved on the server for every request, against plan membership, active rentals, permanent purchases, territory rights and ad-tier eligibility. The client is never trusted to say what a viewer may watch. If this layer is wrong, people either lose access they paid for or keep access they did not, so test your pricing scenarios with real accounts before launch.

  • Media URL protection

    Media is served through signed URLs with server-side entitlement checks, instead of public paths, and APIs use token-based authentication. That is a sound baseline for owned and independent catalog. It is not the same as studio-grade rights management, which is a separate integration, so confirm what your licensors require before you promise them anything.

  • DRM and licensed content

    We set DRM up around the ready-made package. Studio licenses commonly name Widevine, FairPlay or PlayReady, and each is an integration we confirm with you at kickoff, with vendor fees on top. If any of your content contracts mention DRM, treat it as a launch requirement, because it affects the hosting design and the budget.

  • Territory rights and takedowns

    Availability, pricing and monetization model are set per region at the entitlement layer. Maturity ratings, age-gating and a takedown workflow with an audit trail support content governance. Automatic activation and expiry of a licensing window by contract date is tailored work we set up for you, so until then your team must apply window changes on time.

  • Partner data separation

    Partner roles are scoped so each one sees only its own titles, minutes and earnings. This protects commercial terms between partners and prevents disputes from leaking. Payout approvals and content decisions are attributable to staff, so keep the role assignments tidy and review who holds the finance approver role regularly.

  • Privacy and operator duties

    The platform includes an account deletion flow and structured profile records, and the operator remains responsible for legal compliance in each market, including consent notices and retention. We provide tooling, and legal advice is not part of that. Plan which markets you open first, then check requirements for payments, ratings and data handling there.

  • Payments

    Plans, rentals and purchases run through payment providers you choose per market, with invoices and history for each viewer.

Queue workers Workers process transcoding and settlement runs away from the request path.
Scheduled jobs Rental expiry and payout batching run on a schedule instead of being checked at play time.
Protection Signed media URLs, token-based API authentication and rate limiting on play endpoints.

The storefront runs on a cloud account you own. Its distinguishing infrastructure is the background work: queue workers and scheduled jobs handle rental expiry, transcoding and settlement so that none of it sits on the viewer request path. Delivery capacity matters most for scheduled peaks, such as a premiere that everyone starts together.

Where viewers watch: reach by surface, honestly stated

A storefront sells best on the biggest screen in the house, so television reach decides how far a plan can go. This table lists each surface and what the product page says about it. Included means it ships ready. Available means we set it up for you. Tailored for you means we build it and confirm scope with you.

Protecting a storefront catalog: signed links, DRM and what studios ask

Protection has levels. Owned and independent catalogs usually need access control and unguessable media links. Licensed studio content tends to add contractual requirements. Knowing which level your deals demand keeps you from buying too little or too much.

Entitlement before every play
The server checks what a viewer holds each time they press play, in order, so a plan, a rental or a purchase decides access. This keeps the interface honest, because hiding a title in the app is not the same as refusing to serve it.
Signed media links
Files are served through signed URLs rather than public paths, with server-side checks on each request. A shared link then stops working instead of leaking a title forever. This is the sensible floor for any rights conversation and suits owned and independent material.
Territory enforcement
Region rules are applied where rights resolve, not only where titles are displayed. Licensors tend to treat those as different things, and only enforcement survives a review. Set availability for every title in every country where you sell.
DRM as a separate decision
Studio contracts often name Widevine, FairPlay or PlayReady. The ready-made package serves signed media, and we set up DRM as an integration around it. Ask your licensors early, since the answer changes both scope and timing.
Partner governance
Partners submit titles into an approval queue, and each sees only their own performance and earnings. Review terms before anything is published, and keep records so that a dispute over viewing or payment can be settled from the logs.

Settling with partners on measured viewing

Listing other people catalogs is how a storefront grows without licensing everything. It works only when partners trust the numbers, so this section describes the loop from viewing to payment. Each step below is something an operator can inspect, which is what keeps partners confident and keeps disputes short and factual.

Terms set before listing
Agree what share a partner earns, on which titles and for which regions before the first upload. Writing the rule down once saves arguments later, and the console lets you set the terms alongside approval of each submission.
Viewing is measured
Each play adds watch minutes against the title and the partner who supplied it. That measurement, not a manual estimate, is what statements are built from. Check a few titles by hand during the first month to confirm the numbers behave as you expect.
Statements are reconciled
Minutes are reconciled into amounts owed, then presented as partner statements. Finance staff can review them in scoped roles, without seeing catalog or user settings they do not need. Clear statements reduce the questions a partner needs to ask.
Payouts wait for approval
Payment runs sit behind an approval step. A person confirms what is owed before money moves, which protects you from errors and gives partners a predictable rhythm. Publish the schedule so no one wonders when to expect payment.
Unusual formulas are tailored
Minimum guarantees, tiers or advances sit on top of the standard watch-minute settlement, and we set them up for you. If your deals use them, confirm the formula with us early. It is easier to design the rule once than to patch statements after partners have joined.

Build, rent or own: what an Amazon Prime Video clone costs

The expensive part of a storefront is not the player. It is the logic that sits around it: resolving which of four rights applies, expiring rentals on time, keeping territory rules enforced and settling partners accurately. Custom builds routinely underestimate that entitlement layer and discover the gap only when real purchases and active rentals already exist, which makes reworking it painful. In streaming generally, content licensing and delivery cost far more than software, and both grow with success.

Running costs. Several costs sit outside the platform price. Content licensing is usually the largest line in the business. Storage, transcoding and CDN delivery grow with watch time, so your best month is also your most expensive. DRM vendors charge their own fees, native TV apps are separate builds, and payment processing fees multiply because rentals and purchases create many more transactions than monthly plans. Budget people time for partner approvals and statements as well.

Storefront logic: build it from scratch or start from a base

The Amazon Prime Video model next to this platform

Prime Video is widely known for running several models at once: video included in a broader membership, rentals and purchases for individual titles, other providers channels sold inside the storefront, and an ad-supported option. This platform builds that mix for you to brand and own. The rows cover the model only, and the product is independent of the brand.

Who the Amazon Prime Video clone is for

The founders and teams this product fits most directly, one line each. The launch ideas that follow turn these audiences into a first-week plan.

  • Hybrid OTT services

    Operators mixing a subscription base with rentals, purchases and an ad-supported tier.

  • Rental storefronts

    Sellers of new releases, boxsets and events who do not want to force a plan.

  • Partner channel networks

    Platforms that list third-party catalogs and settle them on watch minutes.

  • Regional distributors

    Teams selling the same title on different terms in different territories.

  • Studios and aggregators

    Rights holders running their own storefront with ad-supported and paid access side by side.

Storefront ideas where one price does not fit the catalog

A multi-model service earns when demand differs between titles and between viewers. These are directions where a mix of included, rented, bought and ad-supported access makes sense, with the first thing to settle before launch.

  1. Studio back catalog and new releases

    A studio with older films that belong in a plan and fresh releases that deserve a rental price. Include the back library in a subscription, rent new titles for a limited window and sell boxsets outright. Decide first how long a new release stays rental-only.

  2. Regional distributor

    A distributor selling films across several countries with different rights in each. Set availability, price and model per territory so a title can be a rental in one country and a plan item in another. Start with one market, prove the rules and then open the next.

  3. Aggregator of partner catalogs

    A business that gathers libraries from independent owners without licensing everything itself. Partners list titles under terms you set, and payment follows measured viewing. Agree the settlement rule and statement format with each partner before their first title goes live.

  4. Broadcaster with free and premium tiers

    A broadcaster moving linear programming online. Free ad-supported channels attract viewers, while premium series sit behind a plan or a rental. Decide which titles are free in which territory, so the free tier adds viewers rather than draining paid ones.

  5. Sports and event rights holder

    A league or promoter selling live events, replays and highlight packages. Tickets for a single event, a season bundle and free clips can coexist. Test the entitlement check at peak and confirm rights for every region where you sell.

  6. Course and training marketplace

    Educators who sell some lessons in a plan, others as one-time purchases and a few as free samples. Partner instructors upload through the console and are paid by minutes watched. Set up clear approval so only reviewed material reaches the store.

Apps like Prime Video: how the options differ by purchase model

People comparing apps like Prime Video are really comparing how each one charges. Some are subscriptions only, some are stores, some are free with ads. This neutral list names familiar options and what they trade away, so you can see where an owned storefront sits.

Where a platform you own sits

A white-label storefront gives you the entitlement engine, partner console and territory rules as source code you own, with no revenue share on what you earn. It does not give you titles, licences or an audience. It suits an operator whose catalog does not fit a single price, such as a studio with new releases and a back library.

What founders ask before buying an Amazon Prime Video clone

Longer answers to the questions buyers of this model ask before they commit.

Building a price ladder for a single title

Treat every title as a product with several buyers. A new release has viewers willing to pay a premium to watch tonight, a five-year-old film has viewers who will watch it as part of a plan, and some will only watch it if it is free. A storefront lets you serve all three without extra licensing spend.

Start with the highest-value moment. Release a new title as a rental or purchase first, then move it into a plan tier as demand settles. This keeps your subscription attractive without giving away the best material on day one.

Keep the ladder legible. If the same film has four prices and no clear logic, viewers hesitate. Show the cheapest route first, explain what each option includes, and avoid offering the same right at two prices in the same territory.

Use coupons sparingly and with a purpose. Map them to a specific plan, title or partner and set a validity window and usage cap, so a promotion cannot quietly become a permanent discount.

Designing rental and purchase offers

A rental has two clocks, and both shape behavior. The start window sets how long a buyer has to press play, and the finish window sets how long they have once they begin. A generous start window reduces regret, while a tighter finish window keeps the price of a rental above that of a day of subscription.

Set windows by content type. A film needs a short finish window, a series boxset might need a long one, and a live event replay might need a very short one. Because windows can be set globally or per title, use defaults and override only where a title is different.

Offer purchase as the upgrade. A viewer who rents twice may prefer to own, and a permanent entitlement never churns. Boxsets work especially well here, since the value of owning a full season is obvious.

Check the expiry experience. Rental expiry runs on a schedule, so test what a viewer sees near the end and after it passes. A clear countdown and a one-click rebuy option turn expiry into a second sale instead of a complaint.

Running partner catalogs and settling fairly

Partners join because they trust the numbers. Settlement based on measured watch minutes lets them check your arithmetic, and statements show the calculation. Estimating by catalog size is the quickest way to lose a partner, so decide the basis before the first contract is signed.

Be selective at approval. Each partner title reflects on your service, so set quality, rights and metadata standards and apply them consistently. Record the commercial terms at approval, because settlement will use them later.

Keep terms simple at first. Minimum guarantees, tiered rates and advances are possible but need custom modeling for each deal. Begin with a straightforward share and extend it only when a partner brings enough volume to justify the complexity.

Protect confidentiality. Partners see only their own titles and earnings, and you should make that promise explicit. Assign a named person to answer settlement questions, because accuracy keeps partners but responsiveness keeps their goodwill.

Opening new territories with rules that hold

Rights are usually granted by territory and by period. Before you open a new country, list the titles you hold there, the models you may use and the dates the rights run. The platform lets you set availability, price and model per region, and your job is to enter them accurately.

Enforcement matters. Hiding a title in the interface is different from refusing to play it, and licensors treat the two as very different. Rules applied where rights are resolved survive an audit, so rely on the entitlement settings rather than on layout.

Plan the manual steps. Automatic activation and expiry of a licensing window by contract date is tailored work we can set up, so until then, someone on your team must change availability on the dates in the contract. Put those dates in a calendar.

Localize beyond language. Local prices, local payment methods and local catalogs make a service feel native. Start with one or two markets, learn which offers convert, and then repeat the pattern elsewhere.

Adding an ad tier without cannibalizing plans

An ad tier is a different audience, not a discount. The viewers it reaches were never going to subscribe, so revenue from them is additive, provided the free tier does not include the content that sells plans and rentals. Keep new releases and premium titles off it.

Choose territories deliberately. Advertisers pay for audiences they want, and a market with weak ad demand can leave a free tier that costs delivery and earns little. Open the ad tier where you can realistically sell inventory.

Know what is live. The entitlement engine resolves ad eligibility, but serving ads into the stream, reporting fill and managing yield needs an ad insertion integration that we set up for your build. Do not promise advertisers capabilities that are not integrated yet.

Measure whether free viewers move on to paid options. If they do, the ad tier becomes a funnel. If they do not, it still earns on its own, and you can decide how much catalog to give it.

Your Amazon Prime Video clone questions, answered

What is an Amazon Prime Video clone?

It is a ready-made OTT platform built around choice of purchase model. Each title can be included in a plan, rented, bought outright or opened on an ad-supported tier, and partner catalogs can list beside your own. It ships white-label with full source code ownership.

How is this different from the Netflix clone?

It is the same underlying platform with a different commercial shape. The Netflix clone is framed around a subscription that unlocks the library. This page is framed around a storefront, where subscription, rental, purchase and ad-supported access run together and partners contribute catalog. If your titles do not all belong at one price, start here.

How much does it cost and how long does launch take?

The ready-made build costs $3,699, one time, and goes live in 6 working days from our side. Content preparation is usually the longest task on your side, so start early. Tailored work such as Smart TV apps, DRM or special settlement formulas typically takes 2 to 8 weeks.

Can one title carry several prices at once?

Yes. A title can be included in a plan tier, rented at one price, sold at another and offered with ads. The entitlement engine resolves which right applies on each play request, so a viewer holding two rights never sees a conflict.

How do rental windows work?

A rental grants two timers: a window to start watching and a shorter window to finish once started. Both are configurable per title or globally. Expiry runs as scheduled work rather than a check at play time, so access ends predictably and the viewer sees an accurate countdown.

How does partner revenue sharing work?

Partners submit titles for approval. Once live, viewing is measured in watch minutes at title level, and each share is calculated against agreed terms. Statements and payout requests run through the partner console, approval is operator-gated and each partner sees only their own numbers.

Can you set up DRM?

Yes. Media is served through signed URLs with server-side entitlement checks, which suits owned and independent catalog. Studio licensing usually requires Widevine, FairPlay or PlayReady, and we set that integration up for your build, with scope confirmed with us at kickoff.

Are there Smart TV apps?

Yes, we set them up for your build. The platform ships Android, iOS and web, with QR-based session handoff to television. Native apps for Fire TV, Android TV, Roku and tvOS are tailored to your plan, which is worth planning for if most of your viewing will be on a television.

Can I sell channel bundles or extra channels?

Yes. The platform covers plans, bundles and boxsets, and partner catalogs under revenue share. We also set up selling another provider's channel as an optional extra around your plan, with scope confirmed with us.

Can I run it in several countries?

Yes. Territory pricing, catalog availability, payment methods, content rules and language support are configurable per region. A title can be subscription-included in one market, rental-only in another and unavailable in a third, and several branded deployments can run from one core.

Can I run only rentals and purchases without any subscription?

Yes. Plans are one monetization model among several, and each title carries its own rights. You can open only rentals and permanent purchases at the start, then add plans, an ad tier or ticketed events when your catalog is deep enough to justify them.

Can viewers pay inside the iOS and Android apps?

Subscriptions, rentals and purchases can be completed in the mobile apps where store policy allows. Store rules and fees differ from the web, so decide which purchases you route through the stores and which through your own checkout, and check the current policy for your category.

What does a partner actually see?

A partner console shows submissions and their approval status, performance for that partner own titles, measured watch minutes, earnings and payout requests. It never shows other partners or the operator financials, and payout requests route to an operator for approval before settlement.

How does the platform load a large catalog?

A content acquisition API accepts titles and metadata programmatically from aggregators and distributors, so growth does not depend on manual uploads. Preparing files, artwork, metadata and territory rights is still your work, and it is usually the longest task before launch.

Does the ad tier include ad serving?

The ad tier is modeled and the entitlement engine decides who can watch with ads. Serving ads into the stream, reporting fill and managing yield needs a dynamic ad insertion integration against an ad platform, which we set up for your build once your requirements are clear.

Can I change prices without a new app release?

Yes. Plan prices, rental windows, purchase prices, coupons and territory rules are settings in the console, and the apps read them from the server. Version behavior and feature flags are also controlled centrally, so most commercial changes do not require submitting a new build.

What do I need ready before launch week?

Brand assets, a domain, cloud access, merchant accounts for each market, store developer accounts and your catalog with its metadata, artwork and territory rights. We deploy in 6 working days, but the catalog and rights preparation usually decide when you can actually open to viewers.

Can this work for courses or sports instead of films?

Yes. Titles, series and live events are generic, so a course library, a match archive or a training channel fits the same model. Plans, per-title purchases and ticketed events map naturally to education and sport, and partners can act as instructors or leagues.

How do subscriptions, rentals, purchases and ads work together?

The same title can sit in a plan, be rented, be bought and open with ads, depending on how you configure it. On each play request the server decides which right the viewer holds and applies it in order. Viewers who hold two rights never see a conflict, and you choose what to expose per territory.

What is the difference between SVOD, TVOD and AVOD?

SVOD is a subscription to a library, TVOD is paying per title by rental or purchase, and AVOD is free viewing supported by advertising. A storefront combines them. A viewer unwilling to subscribe can still rent one film or watch a free title with ads, which captures demand a plan alone would miss.

Can I sell extra channels like Prime Video does?

Partners can list catalogs beside yours under terms you set, which covers much of the idea. We also set up partner channels as separately billed extras around your plan, so confirm the model you want. The settlement of partners on measured viewing is already part of the platform.

Can prices differ by country?

Yes. Availability, price and purchase model are set per territory and enforced where rights are resolved, so the same title can be a rental in one country and included in a plan in another. Automatic start and end dates for licence windows are tailored work we set up.

Does it work on smart TVs?

Android, iOS and web ship ready, with QR handoff to link a television session. Native apps for Fire TV, Android TV, Roku and Apple TV are built per platform, and we set them up for you. If television is where your viewers watch, plan that scope from the start.

Do I need DRM for a storefront?

Not for every catalog, and we can set it up when you need it. Owned and independent titles are usually fine with signed media links and server-side checks. Licensed studio content often requires specific DRM systems, and we set that integration up for your build. Ask each rights holder what they require before you finalize your plan.

How should I model the cost of running a storefront?

Add storage for the catalog, delivery for the minutes watched, preparation of media files, payment provider charges and the time your team spends managing partners. We give no figures because rates vary by provider. Compare a quiet month with a month of major releases.

Is this affiliated with Amazon Prime Video?

No. We have no connection with Amazon. The name is used descriptively for a category of multi-model video platforms. The code and design are written by our team, and all third-party trademarks belong to their owners.

How do I scale to a large audience?

Start on a cloud account you control, put video behind storage and a delivery network, and size the application layer for your launch audience. Because entitlements are checked server-side, test playback requests at your expected peak. Scaling work beyond the launch setup is scoped with you.

What does the admin side control?

Catalog, plans, rental and purchase prices, territory rules, coupons, partner approvals, payouts and reports by revenue model. Roles are scoped, so a content manager, a partner manager and a finance approver each see only their own area, which matters once several people run a more complex service.
