SVOD, AVOD, FAST and hybrid live TV planning

Monetization planning for live channel services

Revenue depends on the audience, the channel mix and how the offer is packaged. RestreamNow helps you choose live channels that support your business model instead of copying a generic lineup.

Match the channel lineup to the revenue model

A subscription product needs must-watch value. A free live TV product needs enough variety to keep sessions active. A hybrid service needs a clean split between free and premium channels.

01

Subscription bundles

Use stronger regional and category packages to justify a monthly fee and reduce churn.

02

FAST and AVOD lineups

Build broader live TV sections for free viewing, ad inventory and longer watch sessions.

03

Hybrid offers

Keep a free base package while reserving selected categories or premium channels for paid tiers.

Sales request

Tell us how you plan to earn from live TV

Send the audience region, monetization model, target categories and launch date. We will suggest the most practical channel direction for the first release.

Which model works best for a new OTT platform?

It depends on the audience and content value. Many platforms start with a focused subscription package or a hybrid model with free and paid tiers.

Can the same package work for FAST and subscription?

Usually not. FAST needs breadth and session time, while subscription needs stronger perceived value and fewer weak channels.

Can you help choose categories?

Yes. Share the audience region and business model, and we will recommend a category mix for the first launch.
