OTT Monetisation Models: SVOD, AVOD and TVOD

Control How Each Piece of Content Earns

Vodlix OTT monetisation models let you charge for specific content and set the terms yourself. You decide which titles are subscription only, which are available to rent or buy and which are ad supported, so you provide the best content while earning a return on what viewers want most. Control over provision and pricing sits in the CMS. For OTT operators, controlling how each piece of content earns is the basis of a sustainable business model.

Monetisation That Is Easy to Set Up

Vodlix makes monetisation easy to set up. Your whole line up is processed through secure, integrated payment portals, reducing the chance of a payment mishap, and each monetisation method is configured without heavy development work. Subscriptions, rentals, purchases and advertising are switched on and priced from the admin area. Easy setup means the commercial model can go live alongside the content rather than months later.

Paid Subscriptions Configuration in the CMS: premium subscription type, ads to premium users, allowed TVOD gateways and hiding SVOD content

Monetisation Across Every Device

Vodlix monetisation works across every delivery medium: mobile phones, tablets, televisions, PCs and connected devices. A subscription sold on the web is honoured in the TV app; a rental bought on a phone plays on a laptop. Payment routes are handled per platform, including app store billing where required. Monetisation that reaches viewers on every device is what ensures no revenue is left on a screen you cannot bill.

Subscription plans on a laptop and a phone: the same monetisation on every device

Mix Monetisation Models Freely

Vodlix lets you mix monetisation models freely. Combine subscriptions (SVOD), advertising (AVOD), rentals and pay per view (TVOD) and FAST style free live channels within a single platform, so one service earns from several audiences at once. A viewer can hold a subscription, buy a premium title and watch an ad supported channel on the same account. Mixing models is how modern streaming services maximise revenue per viewer.
