How Much Does IPTV Cost? The Full Price List and the Maths

By AllTimeIPTV Team · Published September 2, 2026 · Updated September 20, 2026

How much does IPTV cost? At AllTimeIPTV, one screen is $15 for a month, $29 for three months, $45 for six and $69 for a year, in US dollars. Multi-screen plans run from $25 a month for two screens up to $239 a year for five. Across the wider market, independent subscriptions generally sit somewhere between a few dollars and roughly twenty dollars a month per screen, depending on term length and how many people watch at once. This page reports those numbers, shows the arithmetic behind them and lists what else you might spend before the first evening of viewing.

These are our own prices, published rather than negotiated. Figures quoted for other services are labelled with the month they were checked, so you can verify or discard them yourself.

The full AllTimeIPTV price list

Four terms, four screen counts, sixteen combinations. Every cell below is a one-off payment in US dollars for the whole term.

The same catalogue comes with every cell: 25,000+ channels from 60+ countries, 120,000+ films and series, and 4K, FHD and HD copies of streams. There are no add-on packs and no premium tier sold on top. The live list is on the pricing page, and what is included is set out on the IPTV subscription page.

What those figures work out at per month

Longer terms are paid once and spread across more months, so the monthly equivalent falls. This is arithmetic, not an offer.

Twelve months on one screen works out at about $5.75 a month. Five screens for a year works out at about $3.98 per screen per month. Both are divisions you can redo on a phone.

Why a subscription costs what it costs

Understanding the inputs makes it easier to judge any price, ours included.

Bandwidth scales with the audience

Broadcast sends one signal to a whole region. IPTV opens a separate stream for every viewer, so the provider’s data bill grows in direct proportion to how many people are watching. A 4K stream at 25 Mbps moves roughly 11 GB an hour. Multiply by a weekend audience and the figure becomes the dominant cost in the business.

Peak capacity is paid for all month

Demand is not flat. It concentrates into weekend evenings and big fixtures. Sizing a platform for those hours means paying for headroom that sits idle on a Tuesday afternoon. That reserve is invisible until the night it is needed, and it is the main structural difference between services that hold up and services that do not. The reasoning is set out on our IPTV server page.

Encoding, storage and the guide

Producing 4K, FHD and HD copies of thousands of channels requires encoder hardware running continuously. On-demand libraries need storage. The programme guide needs constant maintenance to stay aligned with what is actually broadcasting.

People on shift

Round-the-clock support means wages across every hour, including the ones where nobody messages. AllTimeIPTV staffs WhatsApp 24/7 and activates accounts in under 15 minutes, which is a rota rather than a script. The 24/7 IPTV page describes the coverage.

What a price below the input costs implies

Add those together and a floor appears. When a full live-and-on-demand service is priced well beneath what the bandwidth alone would cost, something has been removed: capacity, support, refunds, or all three. That is an observation about arithmetic, not a claim about any particular seller.

What else you might spend

The subscription is usually the only recurring cost, but there can be one-off items.

Hardware: often nothing

Smart televisions, streaming sticks, phones, tablets and laptops already run IPTV player apps, so most households spend nothing here. If you do need a device, our guide to choosing an IPTV box covers what to look for and what to avoid.

Player apps: usually free, sometimes a one-off licence

Most players cost nothing to install. A few sell an optional tier or a one-time licence per television. The comparison in our IPTV apps guide lists which is which, with prices checked in September 2026.

Network: the smallest spend with the largest effect

An Ethernet cable costs a few dollars and does more for stability than a faster broadband tier. If your television sits far from the router, allow for a cable or a powerline adapter before anything else.

Broadband: what you already pay

IPTV uses your existing line. The FCC’s broadband speed guide puts HD streaming at 5 to 8 Mbps and 4K at 25 Mbps, one activity at a time. If your current plan already carries those, nothing changes on that bill.

How the figures compare with other television spending

The prices in this section were checked in September 2026 and exclude taxes, fees and introductory offers. They are context, not a like-for-like swap: cable and licensed live TV apps are licensed bundles, and streaming platforms sell their own originals, which no IPTV plan includes.

Sources, checked September 2026: the CableTV.com State of TV report for the average cable bill; the YouTube TV sign-up page for its standard rate; Streaming Price Tracker for Sling. Annual billing, bundles and promotions can change any of these.

What the comparison leaves out

Licensed services carry contractual guarantees, local channel rights and integrated hardware support that an independent subscription does not. Streaming platforms hold exclusive originals that are available nowhere else. If a specific exclusive show matters to you, keep that app and treat the two as separate lines in your spending.

Working out your own annual total

Three numbers give you a real figure rather than a headline one.

1. Count the screens that will actually play at once. Not the number of televisions in the house — the number in use simultaneously on a typical evening.
2. Pick a term you are prepared to commit to. After a trial and a paid month, not before.
3. Add one-off hardware, if any. Most households add zero.

A single viewer using a television they already own: $69 for the year. A family with three screens running at once: $159 for the year. A household adding a $60 streaming box: that once, and nothing after.

How to read another provider’s price page

Comparing sellers is easier once you normalise what you are looking at. Four habits do most of the work.

Convert everything to cost per screen per month

A twelve-month three-screen plan and a monthly single-screen plan are not comparable until both are divided down. Take the total, divide by months, then divide by simultaneous streams. Only then put the two numbers side by side.

Check what a “device” means

Some sellers count devices you may register; others count streams you may play at once. Those are very different products. The figure that matters is how many can be playing simultaneously on a normal evening. On AllTimeIPTV plans it is the simultaneous count.

Look for what is excluded

Ask whether 4K costs extra, whether particular categories are an add-on, and whether the on-demand library is included or sold separately. A low headline with three add-ons behind it is a higher price wearing a disguise. Our 4K IPTV page and channel list show what sits inside a single AllTimeIPTV plan.

Read the renewal terms before the price

A plan that renews automatically is a standing commitment, not a purchase. Check whether the seller states plainly that it does not recur, and check whether a refund window exists in writing. Both belong on the page, not in a private message.

How paying and activation work

Orders at AllTimeIPTV are arranged through a WhatsApp conversation, and the accepted payment methods are listed there. Once payment clears, login details are issued in under 15 minutes, which covers the server address, username and password your player app needs.

Activation speed is worth checking with any provider, because it is the first observable sign of whether anyone is actually on shift. A service that takes until the next morning to send credentials will take just as long to answer when a channel stops. If you want to try before any of this, the trial account is issued the same way and costs nothing. Setting it up takes a few minutes with one of our device setup guides.

Anyone reselling to their own customers rather than buying for a household should look at the reseller page instead, since the pricing structure there is different.

The order that limits what you can lose

Price is only half the question; the other half is when you commit.

Start with the 24-hour free trial, which needs no card. Watch on a weekend evening rather than a quiet afternoon, because that is when a platform’s capacity is actually tested. If it holds, buy one month. Move to a longer term only after the service has proved itself across a full weekend cycle. The 7-day money-back guarantee covers a first order, and nothing renews on its own.

Our guide to judging an IPTV service on reliability sets out the tests worth running during that trial, and the frequently asked questions page answers the practical ones about payment and activation.

Frequently asked questions

How much is IPTV per month?

It depends on the term and the number of screens. At AllTimeIPTV one screen is $15 for a single month, $9.67 a month on the $29 three-month plan, $7.50 on the $45 six-month plan and $5.75 on the $69 yearly plan. Every plan carries the same channels and library, so only months and screens change the figure.

How much does a one-year IPTV subscription cost?

One screen for twelve months is $69 at AllTimeIPTV. Two screens are $119, three are $159 and five are $239, each paid once for the whole year. There is no contract and nothing renews by itself. Most people start with the free trial and a paid month before committing to a year.

Does the price include the app or a box?

The subscription covers the service only. Most player apps are free, a few charge a one-off licence per television, and hardware is a separate purchase if you need any. Many households already own a suitable smart TV, stick, phone or laptop and spend nothing extra.

Why do longer plans cost less per month?

Because the payment is spread over more months and the provider’s administrative cost per order is the same whether the term is one month or twelve. It is division, not a promotion. A twelve-month plan also commits you for longer, which is why it makes sense only after you have tested the service.

Are there extra charges later?

Not at AllTimeIPTV. There are no add-on packs, no activation fee and no automatic renewal, so the amount you pay at the start is the amount for that term. When the term ends, the account simply stops until you choose to renew it.

How much should a family with several televisions expect to pay?

Count the screens that play at the same time, not the screens in the house. Three simultaneous streams on a yearly plan is $159, which works out at about $4.42 per screen per month. Five is $239, about $3.98 per screen per month. One login shared beyond its limit simply cuts off the earlier stream.
