Fixed-term passes for UK homes · paid once
Here, a UK IPTV subscription takes the form of a pass. It opens 40,000+ live channels, with the British ones grouped at the top, plus 120,000 films and series, and the picture rises to 4K UHD wherever a programme was made in 4K. Pay £29 to £89 a single time, receive your login 2 minutes later and watch until the date printed in the message. Nothing renews by itself.

The basics
IPTV is short for internet protocol television. Instead of an aerial, a satellite dish or a cable box, the pictures reach your screen through the broadband line you already have. An IPTV subscription is the key to that: a login which a player app on your TV, stick, phone or laptop uses to pull in the channel list, the programme guide and the on-demand library.
Most sellers describe that access by the month. At IPTV Subscription 4K we describe it by its final day. A pass runs for a length you choose (three, twelve or twenty-four months) on one screen or two, and the day it finishes is spelt out in the message that delivers your login. You settle it in one go with debit or credit card or PayPal, and no mandate is left behind to collect money later.
Before you buy IPTV subscription access anywhere, it comes down to four plain questions. How long does it run? How many screens can play at the same moment? Which day does it stop? And what happens the morning after? Each answer is written on this page, starting with the passes below.
When demand peaks in the evening, the load is spread over several servers, each sending channels as streams.
Each stream comes in through your router; plan on roughly 5 Mb/s for HD and 25 Mb/s for a 4K screen.
TiviMate, IPTV Smarters Pro, IBO Player or a similar app reads the login and lays out the channels.
The TV shows whatever the source carries: HD, Full HD, or 4K when it was produced that way.
Nobody comes round to install anything and nothing arrives by post: an app and a steady line do the work.
Passes
Channels, library and picture quality do not change from one pass to another. What changes is the length, the number of screens and the daily cost, from 32p on Pass 3 to 12p on Pass 24.

| Pass | Screens at once | Paid once | Works out at | Per day | Ends if bought on 5 November 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pass 3 | 1 | £29 | £9.67 a month | 32p | 5 February 2027 |
| Pass 12 | 1 | £49 | £4.08 a month | 13p | 5 November 2027 |
| Pass 12 Duo | 2 | £79 | £6.58 a month | 22p | 5 November 2027 |
| Pass 24 | 1 | £89 | £3.71 a month | 12p | 5 November 2028 |
Pass 12 is the pass we steer most homes towards: £49 for 12 months, which works out at £4.08 a month or 13p a day, and £67 less than buying Pass 3 four times over. Whichever you pick, the IPTV subscription closes on the day written in your message and nothing further is taken.
Choosing
Four common situations, and the pass that fits each of them.
Pass 12: £49 once for 12 months, 13p a day. The length we suggest for a single TV, with one decision to make each year.
Pass 3: £29 for 3 months. Long enough to get the app, the guide and the Wi-Fi sorted before you think about a year.
Pass 12 Duo: £79 for 12 months on two screens together, which is £3.29 a month for each one.
Pass 24: £89 for 24 months, the lowest monthly cost at £3.71, and £143 below eight Pass 3 orders.
Not sure? Start from the screens rather than the length. If two people never watch at the same moment, one screen at a time is enough, even when the login is entered on more than one TV in the house. Then pick the length by how settled your set-up is: a new stick and an untried Wi-Fi corner argue for three months, a set-up that already works argues for twelve or twenty-four.
Day by day
Follow a Pass 12 bought on 5 November 2026, the day this page was last checked. A different start date shifts the rows; the logic stays put. Searches for “IPTV subscription 12 months” or “12 months IPTV subscription” describe exactly this pass.
| When | What happens | What you do |
|---|---|---|
| 5 November 2026 | You pay £49, one time. | Order from the pass card on WhatsApp; there is no contract to sign. |
| 2 minutes later | Your login message lands by WhatsApp or email, with the finishing date in it. | Keep it safe: everything the player asks for is inside. |
| That evening | The player fills in the channel list, the week’s guide and the film library. | Enter the login once, star a few favourites, check the guide shows the right hour. |
| 28 March 2027 | Clocks go forward: GMT becomes BST. | Guide an hour adrift? Nudge the EPG time offset in the player. |
| 31 October 2027 | Clocks go back to GMT. | Reset the offset if you changed it in spring. |
| The final weeks | No bill, no reminder, nothing to switch off. | Decide whether you want another pass, and for how long. |
| 5 November 2027 | The Pass 12 login stops working. | Nothing to cancel. Order again only if you want more. |
Two details matter before you order. The months are counted from the day you pay, not from the evening you first switch on, so buy when you are ready to watch. And the date belongs to the login rather than to a device: every screen signed in with it goes dark on the same day.
That is the real gap between a 12-month IPTV subscription paid once and a contract. A contract has a minimum term and then rolls on until you act. A pass has a last day and stops there unless you act.
How it works
A UK IPTV subscription from us needs no engineer and no parcel: setting it up takes one message and one app.
Choose the length and the number of screens, press the order button and pay with debit or credit card or PayPal. The figure on the card is the whole price, with no set-up fee and no hardware to rent.
It comes through on WhatsApp or by email 2 minutes after payment, at whatever hour. Inside: your username and password, the server address, an M3U link, a link for the TV guide and the date your pass ends.
In TiviMate, IPTV Smarters Pro, IBO Player or any compatible app, choose the Xtream Codes option and fill in the three fields. Channels and a week of listings then appear.
Stuck on the third step? Message the team on WhatsApp or by email; someone answers 24/7, in English. Mention the device and the app, and they will guide you screen by screen.
Why a pass
An IPTV subscription sold as a pass changes one thing above all: you decide when it finishes, not a billing cycle.
It is printed in your login message and shown on the player’s account screen. No renewal notice to look out for, no cancellation deadline to remember.
£49 pays for 12 months on one screen: £4.08 a month. Across the year that is £67 below four back-to-back Pass 3 orders.
The list opens on the UK groups (news, entertainment, sport, drama, films, kids, music, documentaries and regional) before any other country.
HD or Full HD on most of the list, and the full 3840 × 2160 where a channel or title was made in 4K. Live sport holds 50 frames a second whenever the feed does.
The login runs in TiviMate, Smart IPTV, IPTV Smarters Pro, VLC, IBO Player, Kodi or XP IPTV. We make no app ourselves, so nothing ties you to one.
WhatsApp and email, 24/7, from the first login to the day you decide whether to go again.
Channels
Every IPTV subscription pass opens the same list, arranged country by country and, inside each country, by category. The UK comes first, so the channels you reach for most sit a few presses away.
Rolling British news and current affairs. Foreign news channels live under their own countries.
Prime-time shows, quizzes, reality and comedy: where most evenings begin.
Football, cricket, rugby, golf, tennis, darts, snooker, boxing and motor racing.
Channels built around drama, and around the box sets you follow week to week.
Film channels sorted by genre, from this year’s releases to old favourites, alongside the on-demand library.
Separate groups for little ones and for older children, easy for a parent to find.
Music video channels and radio-style music channels.
Wildlife, history, science and true crime.
Regional versions of the main UK channels, with local news and programmes.
European countries each have their own folder, many with separate news and sport groups.
The rest of the world follows the same pattern: country first, category second.
Households that watch in another language find that country’s channels in the same list, without a second login.
Most players search every country at once, so typing a channel name once finds it wherever it is filed.
With 40,000+ channels, the order matters more than the number. The UK groups come first, then the countries.
Star the channels you really watch; most players keep a favourites group above everything else.
HD, FHD and 4K badges tell you what each stream carries, as decided by its source.
Channels come and go with their sources, and the player picks up changes each time it reloads the login.
British channels firstWe list categories here rather than channel names. If one particular channel decides it for you, ask the team before ordering and they will tell you which group it is filed under.
On demand
The library comes with your IPTV subscription at no extra charge: 120,000 titles, arranged so that Friday night starts with a film rather than twenty minutes of scrolling.
Browse by genre, by year or by what was added last, and start whenever it suits. Most players pick up where you paused.
Each season sits together, episode after episode, so a box set never waits for a broadcast slot.
Most titles are in English. The rest carry subtitles, which you turn on or off from the player’s audio and subtitle menu.
Titles produced in 4K play at 3840 × 2160 on a 4K set. HDR formats and Dolby Atmos show up only if the title carries them and your TV and app can handle them.
Film night, no rental feeGuide and catch-up
The programme guide (EPG) arrives with your Xtream Codes login: a week of listings for each channel, set to UK time. Choose a programme to read about it, set a reminder where the app allows, or jump to the channel. Every IPTV subscription we sell carries the same guide.
Britain keeps GMT through the winter and switches to BST, an hour ahead, between the last Sundays of March and October. On 5 November 2026 the country is on GMT. A Pass 12 bought that day sees both switches: forward on 28 March 2027, back on 31 October 2027.
Should the listings look an hour early or late after a switch, the fix sits in the app, not in your pass. Find the EPG time offset in its settings (a few apps call it timeshift) and shift it by one hour.
Catch-up covers the channels that support it, generally reaching back seven days. A little clock or arrow next to a programme in the guide means you can replay it, and some apps add a Catch up menu that sorts replays by channel.
Replays up to a week backSport
Football, cricket, rugby, golf, tennis, darts, snooker, boxing and motor racing all have a place in the UK sport group, and in the sport folders of other countries.
A match shot at 50 frames a second carries twice the images of one at 25, so a cross-field ball or a hard-hit return stays sharp. When the feed has those 50, your stream keeps them.
Your live picture can lag the broadcast by several seconds, sometimes up to about thirty. Silence the group chat during a match if you would rather not hear the score early.
Roughly 19:00 to 23:00 is when most of the country is streaming, and Saturdays and big fixtures push it hardest. A TV on a cable copes far better than one on crowded 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi.
Apple TV owners: under Settings › Video and Audio › Match Content, enable Match Frame Rate first, then Match Dynamic Range. Elsewhere, pick hardware decoding in the app.
50 fps when the feed has itNo IPTV subscription can turn a 25 fps source into a 50 fps one, which is why we only promise 50 where the source carries it.
Picture
The 4K in our name means up to 4K, on channels and titles produced in 4K. The picture an IPTV subscription can show you depends on four things.
A channel or film arrives in the quality it was made in. A programme filmed in HD stays HD, whatever the screen.
A 4K television, or a 4K stick or box, in an HDMI port rated 2.0 or later, with a cable of the same standard.
The player must decode HEVC, also called H.265, in hardware. Software decoding stutters on 4K, however fast the line.
For each 4K screen, steady, measured on the device itself rather than on a phone nearby.
HDR10, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, like Dolby Atmos sound, follow the same logic: you get them when the source has them and both the app and the TV can handle them. Dolby Vision is a strength of LG’s OLED and QNED ranges; Samsung sets use HDR10+ instead and skip Dolby Vision. A Fire TV Cube, a Fire TV Stick 4K Max or a Stick 4K will pass on 4K HDR and Atmos when the programme carries them.
Miss one of the four and nothing breaks: the app simply shows the best picture your set-up can manage, usually Full HD.
Devices
Your IPTV subscription is a login, so it goes wherever a compatible player goes. Here is what runs where; we publish and sell no app of our own.
You won’t find IPTV Smarters Pro in the Amazon Appstore. Get Downloader, by AFTVnews, from the Appstore, then give it permission to install unknown apps: the switch lives in Developer options, under Settings › My Fire TV. No Developer options? Open About on the same menu and select the device’s name seven times in a row. The download link arrives with your login. Amazon’s newest sticks may run Vega OS, which accepts apps from the Appstore only, so check the model number before you buy.
Whether Smarters Pro is offered depends on the model and the country. Smart IPTV asks for a single activation per TV, after which you send the playlist from its website using the set’s MAC address. IBO Player ties your playlist to the MAC address or a device key. Both read the same access; if neither suits, plug a streaming stick or an Android box into HDMI.
Google Play on the TV itself supplies the players, among them TiviMate (free to install, with paid premium options), XP IPTV and IPTV Smarters Pro. Stay with the store versions, because APK files handed round on forums can hide malware.
Apple devices install players from the App Store and nowhere else; Smarters Pro and VLC were both listed there when this page was checked. You can mirror an iPhone with AirPlay, but an app running on the Apple TV itself holds the picture better.
VLC, VideoLAN’s free player, opens the M3U link on Windows and macOS, and Smarters Pro runs on Macs with Apple silicon. Kodi joins in once you enable its PVR IPTV Simple Client add-on.
Smarters Pro, published by Tech Smarters Private Limited, is free on iPhone, iPad and Android, with an optional in-app Premium priced differently by store. Copycat apps with almost identical names exist; the developer’s name tells them apart.
| Screen | App to try first | Login type | Picture notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fire TV Cube, Stick 4K Max, Stick 4K | TiviMate, or Smarters Pro through Downloader | Xtream Codes | 4K HDR and Atmos when the programme has them |
| Samsung (Tizen) | IBO Player, Smart IPTV; Smarters Pro on some sets | Playlist tied to the MAC address, or Xtream | HDR10+; no Dolby Vision |
| LG (webOS) | IBO Player, Smart IPTV; Smarters Pro on some sets | Playlist tied to the MAC address, or Xtream | Dolby Vision on OLED and QNED |
| Android TV, Google TV, Android box | XP IPTV, TiviMate or Smarters Pro | Xtream Codes | 4K on a 4K panel with HEVC in hardware |
| Apple TV | VLC or Smarters Pro | M3U or Xtream Codes | Match Content: frame rate and dynamic range on |
| Windows PC or Mac | VLC, Kodi, or Smarters Pro on Apple silicon | M3U, or Xtream in Smarters Pro | Depends on the monitor and its decoder |
Broadband
An IPTV subscription is only as steady as the line carrying it. Steadiness matters more than the headline figure, so run your speed check on the TV or stick at around 9 pm, not on a phone sitting next to the router.
Plenty for news, children’s channels and older programmes; the safe choice on patchy Wi-Fi.
The sharpest picture most British channels broadcast; a steady 10 per screen keeps it clean.
For each 4K screen, steady, alongside a 4K television plugged into HDMI 2.0 or newer, and HEVC decoded in hardware.
Screens add up: two 4K streams at the same moment need double the line.
| Picture | One screen | Two screens with Pass 12 Duo | Best connection |
|---|---|---|---|
| HD | 5 Mb/s | 10 Mb/s | Ethernet, or 5 GHz Wi-Fi |
| Full HD | 10 Mb/s | 20 Mb/s | Ethernet, or 5 GHz Wi-Fi close by |
| 4K UHD | 25 Mb/s | 50 Mb/s | Ethernet first; 5 GHz Wi-Fi only within the router’s room |
Run Ethernet from the router to the TV if you can. Plenty of TVs have a 100 Mb/s network socket, which is still four 4K streams’ worth.
The 2.4 GHz band is jammed in flats and terraced streets. Join the TV to the 5 GHz network and keep it within a room or so of the router.
Powerline adapters send the connection along the household wiring; a mesh kit puts extra Wi-Fi points around the house. Either helps a TV two floors up.
The player’s buffer soaks up brief drops. When the picture freezes, restart the router and the app first, then tell support which device it was and at what time.
Two TVs
Pass 12 Duo is the only IPTV subscription in our range that plays on two screens in one home at the same moment, for 12 months. It costs £79 once, or £6.58 a month, which comes to £3.29 for each screen; buying Pass 12 twice would cost £98.
A lounge TV and a bedroom TV, a match in one room while a film plays in the other, or two people who rarely agree on the evening’s viewing.
Add the figures together: two Full HD screens want about 20 Mb/s between them, two 4K screens about 50, steady, measured on each device.
Enter the same login in each app. A third screen at the same moment is not part of any pass, and no three- or four-screen pass exists.
Both screens belong to one household. Should the login turn up in another home or on a public page, it can be suspended.
2 screens at once · 12 months · £79 paid once · 22p a day for both
Compare
Three ways to pay for television in a British home, side by side: a pay-TV contract, offers seen online and an IPTV subscription UK households pay once, with the figures as they stood when this page was checked.
| Pay-TV contract | Monthly offers online | “Lifetime” offers online | Pass 12 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cost of a year | £720 or more | roughly £132 to £264 | Varies; no year to measure | £49 |
| Commitment | 18 or 24 months | A month at a time | Not stated | 12 months |
| Last day in writing | End of the minimum term | Depends on the seller | None | Yes, in the login message |
| Afterwards | Continues until you cancel | Depends on the seller | Nothing promised | Stops, unless you order again |
Twelve-month offers seen online on 5 November 2026 ran from about £40 to £65, clustering near £55, while two screens for a year cost roughly £96 to £100. At £49 for 12 months and £79 for two screens, our passes sit in the lower half of those ranges, with the last day written down.
A “lifetime” IPTV subscription sounds like the end of renewals. Look at what it actually commits to: no end date also means no date the seller stands behind, and none of the offers we looked at put a guarantee in writing. A pass swaps that open-ended promise for a short one you can check.
For a household paying for a large satellite or cable bundle, the sums are stark: £720 or more a year against £49 for an IPTV subscription pass. The trade-off is that you bring the app, the device and a steady line yourselves.
Cheap IPTV subscription headlines usually quote the price of the shortest stretch on offer. Before comparing, turn every deal into a cost per month of viewing: the cheapest IPTV subscription on a banner can work out dearer than a year paid in one go, and an offer without an end date cannot be turned into a monthly figure at all.
Delivery
A single message reaches you on WhatsApp or by email 2 minutes after payment, whatever the hour. That message is your whole UK IPTV subscription: there is no box, no card and no app to buy from us.
Username, password, server URL. Together these form the Xtream Codes login, the option to choose in TiviMate, IBO Player, XP IPTV or IPTV Smarters Pro. One login brings channels, guide and library together.
M3U playlist link. One web address listing every stream, for VLC, Kodi, Smart IPTV and apps without an Xtream option.
XMLTV guide link. Paste it into an M3U app so a week of listings sits next to the channels.
End date. The day the pass stops. Keep the message: it doubles as your receipt and your reminder.
Copy each detail character for character, including http:// and the port number after the colon. When a login is refused, the culprit is nearly always a missing character, a stray space or a phone keyboard that capitalised the first letter.
What arrives 2 minutes after you pay
Shown blurred here: your own details come in the message itself.
The last day
What happens on the last day, and how to carry on without losing an evening of television.
On the date in your message the pass simply stops. No charge follows, nothing rolls into another month, and there is nothing to cancel, because nothing was ever set to continue.
An IPTV subscription that renews by itself is convenient right up to the month you forget it exists. Ours asks you to choose. To keep watching, you place a new order on purpose, in four short steps:
It is in your login message and, in most apps, on the account screen.
The same length or a different one, one screen or two, at the prices shown here on the day you order.
Press the order button of the pass you want and pay once with debit or credit card or PayPal.
You receive fresh login details with their own end date. Type them into the apps you already use; nothing needs reinstalling.
Order a few days early if a big match falls close to your end date, so the new login is entered and checked before the old one stops. The new message states its own dates, just like the first one.
Commitments
Whoever you buy IPTV subscription access from, you are trusting a seller you cannot visit, so here is what we put in writing.
Day or night, on WhatsApp or by email, as soon as the payment goes through.
Written into the message: no renewal, no direct debit, nothing to remember to cancel.
You are refunded within 7 days if no login ever reached you, or if the screen stays blank even after the team has worked through it with you. A change of heart is not covered, and nor is broadband that cannot carry 4K when we set out the speed before you paid.
In English, by WhatsApp or email, 24/7, from the first set-up to the pass’s final day.
Each pass belongs to one household. A login that turns up in another home, or on a public page, can be suspended.
We won’t claim that everything is in 4K, or that a given programme will be. The picture follows each source, and this page says so wherever it counts.

A login for 40,000+ live channels and 120,000 films and series, with a week of listings and catch-up on channels that support it. It runs in the app of your choice for the length of your pass, on one screen, or two with Pass 12 Duo. The finishing date is written in the message that brings the login.
Pass 3 costs £29 for 3 months, Pass 12 £49 for 12 months, Pass 12 Duo £79 for 12 months on two screens, and Pass 24 £89 for 24 months. You pay each one a single time. Monthly, that comes to between £3.71 and £9.67.
No. Nothing is set up to charge you again and there is no direct debit. The login stops on the date in your message; if you want more, you place another order.
It is sent within 2 minutes, day or night, on WhatsApp or by email. If nothing has appeared by then, look in your spam folder before contacting the team.
The best IPTV subscription for your home is the one whose terms you can check before paying: a written end date, a refund rule with a number of days, the price worked out per month and a quick answer to a question asked before the sale. Lists titled “best IPTV subscription 2026” rarely show those checks; every pass on this page states them.
For a single TV we suggest Pass 12: £49 for a year, 13p a day. Pass 3 suits a first order if you prefer to start short, and Pass 24 has the lowest monthly cost, £3.71. Pick Pass 12 Duo only when two screens will play at the same time.
Yes, with Pass 12 Duo: two screens in the same household at the same moment, £79 for 12 months. The other three passes play on one screen at a time.
Fire TV, Android TV and Google TV, Apple TV, iPhone and iPad, Samsung and LG smart TVs, Android boxes, Windows PCs and Macs. Each one needs a player app, for example TiviMate, IPTV Smarters Pro, Smart IPTV, IBO Player, VLC, XP IPTV or Kodi.
No, and we do not claim it is. Channels and titles produced in 4K reach 4K UHD; everything else plays in HD or Full HD, the way its source was made. For 4K you also need a 4K screen, HDMI 2.0 or later, hardware HEVC decoding and around 25 Mb/s.
HD wants around 5 Mb/s, Full HD around 10 and each 4K screen around 25, steady, measured on the TV or stick. Two screens at the same time need double. Ethernet, or 5 GHz Wi-Fi near the router, keeps evenings smooth.
Most likely the clocks have changed: the UK moves to BST on the last Sunday in March and returns to GMT on the last Sunday in October. In the app’s settings, shift the EPG time offset (or timeshift) by one hour.
On channels that support it, programmes from up to a week back can be replayed. Look for the little clock or arrow beside a programme in the guide, or open the app’s Catch up menu.
The login stops on the end date and nothing is charged. To carry on, order a new pass: fresh login details arrive, and you type them into the apps you already use.
Yes, within 7 days, if no login reached you or if the screen stays blank even with help from the support team. It does not apply if you simply change your mind, or if your broadband cannot carry 4K after we told you the speed it needed.
No. Each pass is for one household, and a login found in another home or on a public page can be suspended.
No, we supply the access only. Player apps come from your device’s store: some are free, some charge for extras or an activation, and prices vary by store.
Pass 12: £49 for 12 months, 13p a day, paid once. An IPTV subscription bought on 5 November 2026 ends on 5 November 2027, and it renews only if you order again.
