What You Will Need

  • A UK Streaming subscription (any plan) — view plans here
  • Your login credentials (sent by email after purchase)
  • A Smart TV with internet connection
  • At least 10 Mbps internet connection (25 Mbps recommended for 4K)

You will receive an email containing your username, password and M3U URL. Keep this email safe as you will need it in the next step.

Step 2 — Download a Compatible IPTV App

You need to install an IPTV player app on your Smart TV. Here is what to use for each TV brand:

  • Samsung Smart TV: Download "SmartIPTV" or "IPTV Smarters" from the Samsung App Store
  • LG Smart TV: Download "SmartIPTV" from the LG Content Store
  • Sony Android TV: Download "IPTV Smarters Pro" or "TiviMate" from Google Play Store
  • Hisense: Download "IPTV Smarters" from the Hisense App Store
💡 Tip: SmartIPTV works on almost all Smart TVs and is the easiest option if you are unsure which to use.

Step 3 — Enter Your Credentials

Step 3Open the IPTV app you installed. When prompted, enter the M3U playlist URL provided in your welcome email, or enter your username and password if using the Xtream Codes login method.

The app will take a moment to load your channel list. The time depends on your internet speed but is typically under 30 seconds.

Step 4 — Start Watching

Once loaded, you will see your full channel list of 26,000+ channels organised by category. Browse, search for your favourite channels and start watching immediately in Full HD or 4K.

💡 Pro tip: Connect your Smart TV via ethernet cable rather than Wi-Fi for the most stable connection and best 4K streaming quality.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Channels are buffering

This is almost always caused by internet speed. Check your connection speed at fast.com and ensure you have at least 10 Mbps. If using Wi-Fi, try moving closer to your router or use an ethernet cable.

App not loading the channel list

Double-check that your M3U URL is entered correctly with no spaces. If problems persist, contact our 24/7 support team via WhatsApp.
