What is IPTV?
IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) is TV delivered over the internet instead of an aerial, cable or satellite. You stream channels and films directly to your devices over your ordinary internet connection.
What does IPTV mean?
Internet Protocol Television — TV sent over the internet.
Do I need a dish or aerial?
No. You only need an internet connection and a compatible device.
What can I watch?
Live TV plus 240,000+ movies and series on demand, in up to 4K.
What does IPTV cost?
With IPTV Nordic from 79 EUR/year, with no lock-in.
How does IPTV differ from regular TV?
Traditional TV reaches your screen through an aerial, a cable or a satellite dish. IPTV instead uses your internet connection: the same broadband that powers your phone and laptop also delivers television. Because the signal travels as internet data, you are not limited to what a local broadcaster sends — a single service can offer 43,000+ channels and 240,000+ movies and series from around the world.
This also changes how you watch. With IPTV you can pause, use catch-up to go back several days, and start an on-demand film whenever you like — all from one app. To see how plans and device limits work, view our IPTV pricing and plans.
What types of content does IPTV include?
There are three main kinds of content in an IPTV service:
- Live channels — broadcast in real time, browsable through an electronic program guide (EPG).
- Video on demand (VOD) — a large library you can start, pause and resume at any time.
- Catch-up — watch programs from the previous days (up to 7 days back).
Content is organised into general categories such as sport, films and series, kids, news, documentaries, international, music and entertainment. If a term here is new to you, our IPTV glossary explains it in plain language.
What do I need to use IPTV?
Getting started with IPTV requires only three things:
- A stable internet connection — about 15–25 Mbps for 4K, less for HD.
- A compatible device — Smart TV, Firestick, Android Box, Apple TV, phone, tablet, computer, MAG or Formuler.
- A subscription and a player app, which you set up in minutes.
