Uncompressed On Demand.
Sell your films. Keep every sale.

Uncompressed On Demand lets you sell streaming and downloads of your own films from a shop page. It is included with every paid plan (Lite USD 9, Pro USD 39, Max USD 99, Studio USD 219 a month; yearly is one month free), no commission: buyers pay on your own payment account, so the money settles with you and we take 0% of any sale.

Your films live in your hosting plan’s storage like any other upload. The free plan holds one film at a time and has no shop; paid plans hold more and include the shop. Included for members who switch it on before 31 December 2026, and kept for them afterwards; after that window the shop is USD 39 a month or USD 429 a year. See the pricing page for plan storage.

Setup

From payment account
to the first sale.

Once the shop is switched on, the dashboard walks you through four setup steps, one at a time: connect, bank details, price, share. The first two are ticked by your payment provider, not by you, so a shop cannot open half connected.

1

Switch the shop on

On any paid plan, open On Demand in your dashboard and press Switch on the shop. Nothing is added to your bill. On the free plan, pick a plan first (Lite is USD 9 a month).

2

Connect your payment account

You sign in to, or create, an account with our payment provider. It is yours: your login, your dashboard, your money.

3

Add your bank details

The provider asks for your bank account and identity. Until this is done it can accept payments but holds payouts, so finish it before selling.

4

Pick a film and set prices

Every upload appears as a card. Set a streaming price, a download price, or both, minimum $1. Optionally cut a free preview: choose the length in seconds and the preview is cut as a separate short file. Press Publish.

5

Share your shop

Your shop lives at yourname.uncompressed.io/on-demand, separate from your portfolio. Put it in your bio, newsletter and emails.

6

First sale

A buyer pays on your account. The money settles in your balance and pays out to your bank on your schedule. The sale shows in your earnings.

The buyer

What a buyer sees,
no account to create.

The shop

Your films with poster, length, description and the free preview if you cut one. Buttons for streaming and for download, each with its price.

Checkout

A checkout on your payment account. The buyer gives an email address, which is their whole identity with us.

Receipt

An email receipt with a link. The film opens from that link on any device.

The film

Streamed as you exported it, with no re-encode. A download is the file you uploaded. Playback depends on codec, device and connection.

A film for sale is locked everywhere else

Once a film is on sale it is no longer available free through your portfolio, embeds or share links; only buyers get it. The shop page never carries the full film’s address, and a non-buyer only ever receives the preview cut.

Earnings

What sold,
and who bought.

The earnings screen shows sales by day, by month and by film, your top buyers, and the viewing hours counted against your plan’s allowance each month (Lite 1,000, Pro 5,000, Max 15,000, Studio 25,000;Pro at USD 39 a month carries 5,000). Payouts themselves are in your payment provider’s dashboard, because the money is there, not here.

Prior buyers

Bring the people who already paid,
from another store.

Under your films in the On Demand dashboard sits Prior buyers. Pick a priced film, then paste or upload the buyer list your previous store let you export (a header row with a column named email, or one address per line). Every valid address gets streaming access at no charge and the same email a buyer here receives, with the link that opens the film. Addresses that already hold the film are skipped, unreadable entries are shown back to you, and each film accepts up to 2,000 new addresses a day. Every grant is recorded at zero, so your books explain why an address holds a film it never paid for here.

What it does not do

Read this first,
so you can choose something else.

No subscriptions or memberships

Each film is sold on its own. For a subscription channel, Vimeo OTT or Uscreen are built for it.

No rentals that expire

A streaming purchase does not time out.

No TV or mobile apps for buyers

Buyers watch in a browser from the receipt link.

No DRM or per-buyer watermark

A download is a plain copy of your file. Price and licence it accordingly.

No coupons, bundles or pre-orders

One price per film per format.

No geo-blocking

The shop does not restrict sales by country.

No tax handling

Sales tax and VAT are yours, because the sale is on your account.

No refunds from us

We never hold the money. Refunds go through your own payment account.

Questions

Frequently asked

Does uncompressed.io take a percentage of my sales?

No. The charge is made on your own payment account and we take 0% at any volume. The shop is included with every paid plan, from Lite at USD 9 a month; the only other cost is your payment provider's card processing fees.

What does the shop cost?

Nothing on top of a paid plan (Lite USD 9, Pro USD 39, Max USD 99, Studio USD 219 a month; yearly is one month free) for members who switch it on before 31 December 2026; they keep it included afterwards. Each plan carries viewing hours a month (Lite 1,000, Pro 5,000, Max 15,000, Studio 25,000), then USD 29 per extra 20,000-hour block. After that window, and on the free plan, the shop is a separate add-on at USD 39 a month or USD 429 a year with 20,000 viewing hours. Anyone already paying for the add-on is unchanged.

Who handles refunds?

You do, from your own payment account. We cannot refund a sale because the money never passes through us. When you refund, the buyer's access is removed at once.

Does the buyer need an account?

No. They pay, receive a receipt email, and the film opens from the receipt link on any device.

Who collects sales tax or VAT?

You do. The sale is yours, made on your account, so tax obligations are yours as the seller.

Can I sell films I moved from Vimeo On Demand?

Yes, if you hold the rights and the files. Upload your master, price it and publish it to your shop. Vimeo's purchase history and buyer access do not transfer; Vimeo On Demand buyers keep access there until 20 November 2026. To keep them watching here, open Prior buyers in your On Demand dashboard and paste or upload the buyer emails Vimeo lets you export: each address gets streaming access at no charge and an email with the link, up to 2,000 addresses per film per day.
