Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Vodlix. Can't find an answer? Our team is happy to help.

Monetization

Is entitlement split by purchase route on Vodlix?

No. However a subscriber paid, whether through your website, the App Store or Google Play, Vodlix holds a single view of what they are entitled to, so support and reporting are never split.

Monetization, OTT Apps

Why do web and app store prices differ for the same package?

App store price tiers are fixed steps that include local tax and platform commission, so in app prices rarely match web prices exactly. The store price is set in each store against the product ID the package carries, while the web price is set on the package itself.

Monetization

Should I present web and in app prices as identical?

No. The goal is that a viewer is never surprised by what they are charged, not that the figures match exactly. Vodlix lets you be clear about the price on each route.

Monetization

Can I control which routes sell a package?

Yes. Vodlix lets you choose which payment gateways may sell each package, so a promotional plan can be web only while standard tiers are available through every store.

Monetization

A subscriber wants to cancel a subscription bought in an app. Can I?

Generally not directly, because the store holds that billing relationship. The honest answer is to direct them to the store, and the useful thing is that the platform records which route the subscription came through so you know before the conversation starts.

Monetization, OTT Apps

Do I end up with two sets of subscribers?

No. However the payment was taken, the platform holds one view of who is entitled to what, so support and reporting are not split by route even though the money arrived through different providers.

Monetization, Video Platform

Does home page content carry across devices?

Yes. Home page content set in the Vodlix CMS appears in the same positions on web, mobile and TV, so a launch leads everywhere at once with no separate curation per platform.

Monetization, Content Management

How can I monetize my content through the Vodlix iOS app?

Vodlix provides various monetization options, including subscription models, in-app purchases, and ad integrations, enabling you to generate revenue from your content directly through the app.

OTT Apps, Monetization

Can we run LG alongside Samsung, Roku, Android TV and Apple TV?

That is the normal arrangement. Every television platform sits on the same backend, so each one you add is extra reach rather than extra maintenance, and a subscriber moves between them on one account.

OTT Apps, Monetization

Do live channels keep their channel numbers on Vodlix?

Yes. Each Vodlix live channel carries its own number, so viewers can tune directly from a remote the way they would on traditional television.

Monetization, Live Streaming

Do live channels and on demand content sit together?

They do, in one app and on one platform. A viewer can move from a channel into a boxed set without leaving your service, and both are covered by the same subscription, rental or advertising arrangements rather than needing separate products.

Live Streaming, Monetization

Does Vodlix import subscriptions and plans from my old platform?

Yes. Import your products and product plans first, then your subscriptions, and each subscription is linked to its plan. Recurring billing runs through your payment gateway, so plan how renewals move with our team before you switch.

Monetization, Getting Started

Do the mobile apps share data with my website and TV apps?

Yes. Vodlix mobile apps share subscriptions, profiles, lists and watch progress with every other screen, so a viewer's experience continues seamlessly between devices.

OTT Apps, Monetization

Can I see a title's status without opening it?

Yes. Each title's state, such as published, unpublished or still processing, is visible directly in the Vodlix content list, so reviewing the catalogue is fast and gaps are spotted at a glance.

Monetization, Content Management

Do listings show whether a title is free or paid?

The monetization model is visible on the admin side against every title, and on the viewer side it is expressed by what happens when they open it. Being able to see the mix while managing the catalogue is what stops a listing filling up with titles most of your audience cannot open.

Monetization, Content Management

Can I run more than one payment gateway on Vodlix?

Yes. Vodlix lets you run multiple payment gateways in parallel across your platform, so different markets and payment types can be served by different providers at the same time.

Monetization

Why use several payment gateways for a streaming service?

Running several gateways on Vodlix lets each market pay through the provider it trusts, which raises conversion, and keeps checkout working when one provider has an outage.

Monetization

Can I see how each payment gateway performs?

Yes. Vodlix shows performance per gateway, including failed and successful transactions, so you can route volume toward the providers that settle reliably in each region.

Monetization, General

Does adding a payment gateway disrupt the others?

No. Payment gateways on Vodlix can be added, enabled or removed independently, so your payment mix can evolve as your markets change without migration projects or downtime.
