IPTV Subscription Plans: How the Pricing Actually Works
By Daniel Carter, Streaming subscriptions editor · Reviewed by Sarah Mitchell · Updated August 2026
Every plan in this market is two decisions: how long you commit, and how many streams you need at once. Terms run 1, 3, 6 and 12 months, taking the cost from $15 a month down to $8.33–$10. Connections run 1 to 6, taking a single plan from $15 a month up to $40–$45.
Disclosure: eight of the subscriptions on this page — TereaTV, FreeGoTV, VocoTV, BexyTV, KroozTV, ViewTVY, VinomTV and EarthWebTV — are operated by the same network that publishes this site, which is why we can publish verified plan figures for them. Everything else listed is a third-party service, flagged as unverified. How this affects our rankings.
Providers publish twenty-odd prices and call it a pricing page. It is really a grid with two axes, and once you see the grid the right plan is obvious in about thirty seconds.
A connection is a simultaneous stream, not a device. Count the screens that play at the same time.

Price per month by number of simultaneous connections. A dash means the brand does not sell that tier.
Figures are the effective cost per month once the billing term is divided out — the number you actually pay, not the headline rate. Checked against each provider's own plan page in August 2026; see our disclosure.
Why here: A dedicated 5-connection plan priced below five separate singles.
Strength: Extra devices cost $5 each rather than a full extra plan — six simultaneous streams is $40 a month, which works out to $6.67 per device, the lowest per-device rate here.
Trade-off: The six-month plan is $65 where TereaTV and ViewTVY charge $60 for the same term.
Why here: The simplest grid here — one price per term, with devices selected at checkout.
Strength: The only 30-day money-back guarantee among the eight, on the same $100 year that four rivals charge — and a browser player, so you can watch without installing anything.
Trade-off: Catch-up and profiles scale with plan length: 24 hours of catch-up on the monthly plan against seven days on the annual one.
Longer terms are cheaper per month on every service we have plan data for. Roughly: three months takes 11% off the monthly rate, six months takes 22%, twelve months takes a third or more. Nothing else about the service changes.
Axis two: connections
A connection is one simultaneous stream, not one device. You can install the app on five televisions with a single-connection plan — only one can play at a time. The stepping is near-identical across the network: one connection $15 a month, two $25, three $30, four $35 to $45, five $40 to $50. On annual terms the same ladder runs roughly $100–$120 for one connection up to $160–$170 for five or six.
Providers we could not verify
These are third-party services we do not operate and have not tested. Everything they publish about pricing, channel counts and uptime is their own claim, listed here for completeness rather than endorsed.
Xtreme HD IPTVWidely listed across review sites; advertises multi-device plans and a paid short trial. Pricing and channel counts are the provider's own claims.
Apollo Group TVLong-running name in the market with a multi-tier plan structure. We have not verified uptime or catalogue size.
IPTV TrendsMarkets heavily on annual pricing. Figures published on its site are unverified by us.
Atlas Pro ONTVStrong presence in European listings; advertises 4K tiers. Unverified.
EagleCast TVAppears on most third-party round-ups with mid-market pricing. Unverified.
Yeah IPTVAdvertises a short paid trial rather than a free one. Unverified.
Kemo IPTVEstablished name with multi-connection plans advertised. Unverified.
Two pricing models, and why it matters
Look at the grid above and two shapes appear. VocoTV and KroozTV add $5 for each extra simultaneous connection: $15 for one device, $40 for six. Everyone else adds closer to $10: FreeGoTV runs $15 to $45, VinomTV $15 to $60.
For one or two screens the difference is a few dollars a month. For a household of five or six it is $240 a year on an identical requirement. If more than two people watch at once, the connection ladder is the single most expensive decision on the page — and the one almost every comparison ignores in favour of channel counts.
Working out your own answer in thirty seconds
Count the maximum number of screens that will ever play at the same time in your house — not the number of televisions you own. Two people who watch at different times need one connection. Two who watch simultaneously need two.
Then pick the longest term you are willing to commit to after testing, and read the grid where those two lines cross. That is your plan. Everything else on a pricing page is decoration.
What should never appear on a plan
Activation fees. Equipment rental. Contracts with notice periods. Lifetime plans. All four are either cable habits or warning signs, and none of them appears on any plan reviewed here.
Questions people ask before buying
What IPTV subscription plans are available?
Terms of 1, 3, 6 and 12 months, each sold with 1 to 6 simultaneous connections. Price scales with both.
What is a connection?
One simultaneous stream. You can install the service on many devices; the plan limits how many can play at the same time.
Which plan is best value?
The twelve-month term at the lowest connection count your household genuinely needs. Both halves of that sentence matter.
Can I upgrade a plan mid-term?
Most providers allow an upgrade with the difference prorated. Downgrades usually wait until renewal.
What if I need a seventh connection?
No brand here sells one as standard. Ask support about a custom or commercial plan rather than buying a second subscription — most will quote one.
Can I share a plan with someone in another house?
Technically the connections work anywhere, since none of these services applies an IP lock. Whether the provider permits it is a question for their terms.
The bottom line
Count simultaneous screens first, choose the term second. Getting the connection count right saves more than switching provider ever will.
