Have questions? We’ve got answers.
Whether you have experience or are new to live streaming, here are the three things you need to get started with BoxCast.
Our paid streaming subscription plans start at just $99 per month.
No. We provide a free trial for the BoxCast platform, but we don’t provide an encoder during the trial period. However, you can download our free Broadcaster app and stream from your iOS device. Or use Producer to stream right from your web browser.
Yes! You can try our Experience plan free for two weeks to test all the streaming features we offer.
We offer a 30-day, money-back guarantee on our hardware and streaming plans. For more info, see our Returns, Refund + Warranty Policy.
That depends, since many factors — including video resolution, network congestion, and hardware (like routers, network switches, or cabling) — can impact stream performance. A general rule of thumb is: Have twice the amount of upload bandwidth available as you will need for your stream. Read this article for more detailed recommendations.
Each of our streaming plans includes at least 10,000 viewer hours a month — typically more than enough for a majority of broadcasters — and no limit on the number of viewers. If you think you’ll have extraordinarily high viewership, you should talk to a streaming coach about our Premium plan, which gives you 20,000 viewer hours a month.
The Essential, Growth, and Experience plans allow you to stream an unlimited number of events, up to eight hours in length. If you hold single events that are longer than eight hours or multiple events that overlap, you should consider our Extended Broadcast Duration and Concurrent Broadcasts add-ons.
Depending on your plan, we keep your recorded streams for 90 days or one year, so your viewers can watch live or when they have time later.
