Strimm gives you several ways to earn from your channels and content. This section covers every monetization tool available and how to set each one up.
Monetization options
| Method | How it works | Available on |
|---|---|---|
| Advertising (VAST) | Run video ads using your own ad network VAST tags | Web, Roku, Fire TV, Mobile, Apple TV, Android TV, Google TV |
| Pay-Per-View (PPV) | Charge viewers a one-time fee to access a specific VOD video | Web and all apps |
| Viewer Subscriptions | Offer recurring paid access to your channel content | iOS, Android, Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, Android TV |
Choosing the right model
- Use VAST advertising if you want to monetize free viewers without charging for access. Revenue depends on your ad network fill rate — not guaranteed by Strimm.
- Use PPV for premium individual videos (events, films, exclusives) where you want viewers to pay per watch.
- Use Viewer Subscriptions for ongoing paid access to your channel — similar to a streaming subscription.
You can use multiple methods simultaneously on the same channel.
Important note
Strimm provides monetization infrastructure. You control pricing, content rights, and your relationships with ad networks, payment processors, and app stores. Strimm does not guarantee ad fill, PPV sales, subscription signups, or revenue of any kind.
