IPTV Subscription UK: How Plans, Durations and Connections Work
An IPTV subscription is defined by two choices: how long it runs and how many screens can stream at once. This page explains both, using IPTVSmart's own plans as the example.
What an IPTV subscription includes
When you subscribe, you receive login details for the service. You enter them into a compatible player app on your television, streaming stick, phone or tablet, and the app displays channels and a programme guide. The subscription runs for the period you paid for and allows a set number of screens to stream at the same time.
It does not include a device, a broadband connection or a television licence. Exactly what content is included in a plan is confirmed at checkout; if anything is unclear, ask us before you pay.
Choosing a duration
We offer three durations. Each is paid once, in full, at the start.
| Plan | You pay for | You receive | 1 device, total | Effective monthly |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3 Months | 3 months | 3 months | £29.99€35.99 | £10.00€12.00 |
| 6 Months | 6 months | 6 months | £37.99€45.60 | £6.33€7.60 |
| 12 Months + 1 Month FREE | 12 months | 13 months | £57.00€68.49 | £4.38€5.27 |
How to decide:
- 3 months suits anyone who is new to IPTV or unsure about their broadband. It costs the most per month but commits you the least.
- 6 months is a middle course once you know the service works in your home.
- 12 months has the lowest effective monthly cost and includes a thirteenth month at no charge. It makes sense once you have tested the service and are confident in it.
We would rather you took a free trial and then a shorter plan than bought a year on the strength of a web page.
Choosing the number of connections
The second choice is how many screens can stream simultaneously, from one to five.
A few typical UK households, to illustrate:
- One person, one television: 1 device.
- A couple with a living-room TV and a bedroom TV that are sometimes both on: 2 devices.
- A family where the main TV, a teenager's room and a tablet are regularly in use together: 3 devices.
- A larger household or a shared house: 4 or 5 devices.
Prices for one to three connections on the 12-month plan, for comparison: £57.00€68.49, £75.00€90.00 and £93.00€111.99.
