Review Methodology

How we gather provider information, what we compare, and what our comparisons can and cannot tell you.

Last updated: November 3, 2026

Purpose of our comparisons

Our comparisons are meant to help you shortlist IPTV providers and decide which free trial is worth trying first. They are a starting point for your own research, not a substitute for it.

Where our information comes from

We build each listing from information the provider publishes, mainly its own website, pricing page and trial or sign-up page. We present these details in a consistent format so that providers can be compared side by side.

What we compare

CriterionWhat we look atThings to keep in mind
ChannelsThe channel count the provider advertisesA larger number does not mean better quality or more channels you will watch.
Free trialTrial length listed by the providerTerms vary. Check what the trial includes and how to cancel.
PriceThe starting monthly price listedPlans, offers and renewal prices can change at any time.
FeaturesDevices, connections, VOD, catch-up and similar features published by the providerFeatures can differ by plan, device and region.
PresentationHow clearly the provider explains its offer, terms and contact optionsThis is a judgement about information, not about stream quality.

How ratings work

The star ratings you see beside providers are editorial scores. They reflect how the information we collected compares across providers, including value for money, trial terms and the range of content advertised. They are not the result of laboratory testing or long-term performance monitoring, and they are not a guarantee of quality, reliability or availability.

How the order is decided

The default “Our picks” order and the Top 3 are editorial choices. You can also sort the list by lowest price, most channels or longest trial, using the details we have recorded. Because we earn a commission from many of the providers listed, commercial relationships may influence which providers are featured and where they appear. See our Affiliate Disclosure.

What we do not do

  • We do not claim to independently verify every provider's advertised channel list, picture quality or uptime.
  • We do not promote or knowingly list services that offer pirated content, and we ask you to check that any service is licensed in your country.

Keeping information up to date

We aim to review listings regularly, but prices, trials, channel counts and features can change without notice. Always confirm the current details on the provider's own website before you subscribe.

Corrections

If you spot something out of date or wrong, please contact us. We will review it and update the listing where appropriate. You can read more about how we handle this in our Editor Policy.

In short: use our comparison to build a shortlist, then use the free trial to test the service yourself, on your device, at the time you normally watch.
