The IPTV reseller profit model
IPTV reselling works on a simple margin model: you purchase credits at a wholesale price from your provider, then sell customer subscriptions at your own retail price. The difference between your wholesale credit cost and what your customers pay is your gross margin.
There are no monthly panel fees or recurring overhead costs to maintain your reseller account. You only spend credits when you activate customer subscriptions. This means your costs are directly proportional to your active customer base.
Your cost per subscription
Your cost per customer subscription is determined by two factors: the credit package you purchase and the subscription duration you sell. Credits cost less per unit in larger packages.
Standard panel — cost per subscription (illustrative examples)
These figures are based on the published Standard credit package pricing. Your actual cost depends on which package you purchase.
| Package | Cost/Credit | 1-Month Sub Cost | 3-Month Sub Cost | 12-Month Sub Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50 credits (£139.99) | £2.80 | £2.80 | £8.40 | £33.60 |
| 100 credits (£229.99) | £2.30 | £2.30 | £6.90 | £27.60 |
| 200 credits (£349.99) | £1.75 | £1.75 | £5.25 | £21.00 |
| 1,000 credits (£1,649.99) | £1.65 | £1.65 | £4.95 | £19.80 |
These are your wholesale costs. What you charge customers is your decision and determines your margin.
Using the profit calculator
The IPTV reseller profit calculator on the homepage lets you model your estimated margins before committing to a credit package. You enter:
- Panel type (Standard or Premium)
- Credit package (determines your per-credit cost)
- Number of customers
- Subscription duration you will sell
- Your intended selling price per customer
The calculator returns: credits needed, total revenue, credit cost, profit per customer, net profit and margin percentage. Results are estimates — actual margins depend on your selling price and customer mix.
A worked example
Using the 200-credit Standard package at £349.99 (£1.75 per credit):
- You sell 20 customers a 3-month subscription each
- Credit cost: 60 credits × £1.75 = £105.00
- If you charge customers £8 per month → £24 for 3 months → £480 revenue
- Gross profit: £480 − £105 = £375
- Gross margin: approximately 78%
This is a simplified illustration. Use the profit calculator for your specific numbers. Your margin increases as you move to larger credit packages with a lower per-credit cost.
Factors that affect your IPTV reseller profit
- Credit package size: Larger packages have a lower per-credit cost, improving your margin at the same selling price
- Subscription duration sold: Longer subscriptions (6 or 12 months) typically command a higher total payment and lock in revenue for longer
- Your customer pricing: You set your own prices — the reseller price is your only cost
- Customer retention: Renewing existing customers uses credits at the same rate as new customers — renewals cost the same as initial activations
- Sub-resellers (Premium only): Premium resellers can create sub-reseller accounts, adding a wholesale layer to their operation
