Who We Are, and Why the Account Travels With You

The short version

IPTVGREAT is a television service you sign into. One account reaches 60+ countries, 25,000+ live channels, and a library of 120,000+ films and series, and it plays through an app on a screen you already own. Nothing arrives in a van. Nothing is fixed to a wall. Nothing has to go back at the end of the term.

The consequence of that is the reason this site exists. An account with no hardware behind it is not attached to a street name. The same three login values work on the television in town, on the one at the coast, on a phone in a kitchen you are borrowing for a fortnight, and on a laptop in a room where the remote control belongs to somebody else. You are not moving a service between addresses, because there is nothing at any address to move.

Sold to a person, not to a building

Older television came with geography built in: a cable in the ground, a socket in one wall of one room, an account number that matched the street. Ending it, pausing it or taking it with you meant somebody with a clipboard. That model made sense when the picture arrived through a wire that could only reach one place.

A streaming account has none of that grammar. You can install the app on as many devices as you like; what the tier limits is how many streams play at the same time. The term runs on its own dates, not on where you slept. There is no contract, no auto-renewal and no card kept on file, so nothing has to be canceled when your week changes shape. The only question you ever answer is which screen is in use tonight.

Who we write for

This site is written around a handful of people we keep meeting in the chat window. If you recognize yourself in one of them, the guides here will feel like they were written in your living room rather than in a studio.

• Somebody with two places to be, splitting weeks between them, who does not want two subscriptions running for one pair of eyes.
• A family who take the same house by the sea every August and would rather not spend the first evening working out what the television in it does.
• People who work away from Monday to Friday and watch in a room they are only renting a bed in.
• Motorhome, caravan and boat owners, whose internet changes every few days and is never the fast kind.
• Students moving between a term address and a family one, twice a year, with a bag that is already full.
• Anyone who has sat in an unfamiliar living room in front of a set showing four channels in a language they cannot read.

What actually lands in your chat

An IPTVGREAT account is a standard Xtream Codes login: a server address with its port number, a username and a password. Those three values are the whole subscription. Every app on this site asks for the same three, in a slightly different order, behind a slightly different menu.

Along with them you get an M3U link in the form http://server:port/get.php?username=…&password=… for players that prefer a playlist, and the program data from the same server at xmltv.php with the same credentials. If you run a MAG box, the portal address is bound to that box and its MAC address instead, so support needs the MAC printed underneath it before anything can be issued. The whole thing takes under 15 minutes and arrives in the WhatsApp conversation you ordered in.

Keep that message. Take a photograph of it, or write the three values on a card in your wallet. It is the only piece of the service you ever need to carry, and it is what turns a strange television into yours for a week.

Who answers, and where

Support is a WhatsApp conversation and nothing else: +212 663 813 479, open 24/7. There is no ticket number to quote, no address to write to and no queue you drop out of. The thread keeps its own history, so when you set up a second screen in November the answers from the first one in June are still scrolled up above.

That model was chosen for a specific reason. The people who need help most are the ones standing in a room they do not know, holding a remote they have not used, on a connection they did not choose, often at an hour that is convenient nowhere. A chat window handles that better than anything with an inbox attached.

Four things make an answer arrive faster: the device you are holding, the app you installed, what the screen actually says word for word, and whether the connection belongs to you or is shared with a building full of other people. That last one changes the answer more often than anything else.

How the guides here are written

Every setup page on this site assumes the worst version of the moment: an unfamiliar room, a set you have never operated, one evening, and a person waiting on the sofa. That is why each guide names the exact menu wherever the menu is certain, and describes the function in plain words wherever it is not. A made-up menu name costs you twenty minutes in front of a television that is not yours, so we would rather write the settings screen where the playlists live than guess at a label.

Prices, the channel count, the trial length and the guarantee all come out of one file in the theme. Change a number there and it changes in the pricing table, the schema and this paragraph at the same moment, which is the only way a site this size stays honest with itself. If an app moves a setting and a guide here goes stale, tell us in the chat and it gets fixed the same week.

What you will not find here

• Numbers we cannot stand behind. No review counts, no customer totals, no league table of providers we claim to have tested.
• Promises about one channel in one country. Line-ups move. We will tell you what the service carries; we will not swear that a particular station reaches a particular address.
• Ways around anybody else's network. If the Wi-Fi in a building blocks something, those rules belong to whoever pays that bill. Ask them, or use your own mobile data. That is the whole of our advice on the subject.
• Encouragement to share one account around. One account is one household, as the terms put it in section 4. A login passed between families does not fail politely; it fails in the middle of something.

Before you spend anything

Where to go from here

If you already know what you want, the plans and prices take a minute to read and the free trial takes less. If you are still working out whether any of this fits the way you watch, the questions page is blunt about what the service does and does not do, the channel list shows the shape of the line-up, and the setup guides will tell you in about ninety seconds whether the screen in the other house is going to cooperate.

IPTVGREAT operates iptvgreat.forum. Everything administrative — the terms, the refund rules, what happens to your data and how rights holders reach us — is linked in the footer of every page, and the one route to a human is the WhatsApp line.
