About EyePTV
EyePTV Live operates a licensed IPTV service — live TV and video on demand — for viewers in the United States. What we sell is ordinary: distribution rights we paid for, delivered over standard streaming. What we try to do differently is publish the parts of that sentence a buyer can actually check, because in this category almost nothing printed on a sales page is checkable.

Short answer
Who operates EyePTV, and what does it commit to?
EyePTV is operated by EyePTV Live as a licensed IPTV service for viewers in the United States, distributing only content it holds US distribution rights for. Its published commitments are deliberately the checkable kind: the channel list counts the US networks carried category by category, the Terms name what an outage costs us rather than quoting an unaudited uptime percentage, blackout and local-affiliate limits are stated on the marketing pages rather than in the small print, and the refund is self-serve for seven days. Where a claim cannot be verified, this site does not make it.
How we operate
Four commitments
Claims we cannot substantiate fail the build
This one is a script rather than a promise. A gate in our deploy pipeline reads the rendered text of every page and refuses to ship if it finds one of seven claims we cannot stand behind — an unaudited uptime figure, a stopwatch activation promise, round-the-clock staffing, a five-figure channel total. It has caught live copy on this site more than once and blocked the release. A rule with nothing enforcing it is a diary.
The lineup is a number you can count
231 US networks across 8 categories, broken down on the channels page with a count for each category. The total is reached by addition, so you can check the arithmetic instead of trusting it. It is far smaller than this market usually advertises, and it is smaller precisely because it is a count rather than a claim.
The outage clause names what we owe you
Section 3 of the Terms commits to crediting 10% of the month if an outage on our side stops you watching for more than four hours, and 30% past twenty-four. Our own logs settle whether it happened — you are not asked to prove anything. We publish no uptime percentage at all, for the simple reason that nobody independently audits ours.
The limits sit on the pages that sell
Regional sports blackouts apply here exactly as they do on cable. Local affiliate coverage varies market by market. Roku permits no sideloading, so it is reached by mirroring or the web player. Sentences like those cost us sales, which is exactly why they belong where you are deciding rather than in a document you open afterwards.
What we actually do
The service, plainly
We buy US distribution rights, deliver the streams over ordinary adaptive-bitrate HTTP, and ship native applications for 10 platforms so playback runs on your device’s own decoder instead of a generic software player. That is the whole product.
None of it is clever, and we would rather not pretend otherwise. Adaptive streaming was solved a decade ago and anyone can rent servers. The three things that genuinely vary between services here are whether the rights were paid for, whether there is capacity left at nine o’clock on a Sunday night, and whether a person replies when there is not.
Those three are expensive, which is the only reason they carry any information. A lineup figure costs nothing to type, so it tells you nothing about whoever typed it. We compete on the costly signals because the free ones are noise.
Editorial policy
Why we publish the tests we could fail
Several pages here teach readers how to assess an IPTV provider using tests we would fail if we cut corners: how an inflated lineup gives itself away, why crypto-only checkout quietly removes your leverage, what a service’s willingness to admit blackouts implies about its contracts. We publish them knowing they arm a reader against us as readily as against anyone else.
The reasoning is commercial rather than noble. Someone who understood the constraints before paying does not ask for a refund in week two; someone sold a fantasy always does. We also decline to name or rate competitors — names churn while categories hold, and a ranking published by a seller is an advertisement wearing a lab coat.
The category
Why this market is so hard to buy in
Independent IPTV is one of the few consumer categories where the marketing of the honest operators and the dishonest ones is nearly identical. Both publish channel counts. Both promise 4K. Both quote uptime figures. The words are the same because the words are free, and a buyer comparing two pages has almost nothing to separate them.
That is why the search results for this category behave the way they do. Look up any “best IPTV” term and you will find review sites crowning different winners in the same week, a press-release mirror, and a PDF uploaded to a university web directory. The lists disagree about the product and agree about the format, which is what paid placement looks like from the outside.
Our response is not to claim we are trustworthy, because that is another free word. It is to publish the things a dishonest operator cannot copy without changing what it does: the lineup counted category by category rather than as one inflated total, the limitations on the marketing pages rather than in the small print, an outage clause with a consequence rather than a percentage, and a build process that rejects any claim we cannot substantiate. Each of those costs us something — a bigger-sounding number, an easier sale, an afternoon of engineering. That cost is the point. It is what makes them evidence rather than adjectives.
Where it leaves us honest about ourselves: this is a young business, several of its operational promises are commitments rather than track record, and the promise ledger says which is which. We would rather you knew that from us.
