Before it closes: what to do
Four steps, in this order, so your buyers keep what they paid for and your sales pick up somewhere else.
Hand us your catalog
We pull your videos straight from Vimeo, with their titles and descriptions. Vimeo can also give you an export of your files: we take it over as it is.
Open your channel and set your prices again
Outright purchase, rental, subscription: keep your plans or change them, and payment goes through Stripe, paid out in your name.
Give your former buyers their access back
Announce your channel’s address on your site, your social accounts or by email. Once they have created an account, you open a free access for them from their customer record.
Replace your old links
With the migration, we hand you a table mapping every Vimeo link to its Videas equivalent: you update your site, your social accounts and your emails from it.

Frequently asked questions
Is Vimeo On Demand really shutting down?
Yes. Vimeo has announced the end of the service and points its sellers to Vimeo OTT. New purchases and new subscriptions are already blocked, running subscriptions no longer renew, and when it closes buyers lose access to what they paid for.
What happens to my buyers and subscribers?
They lose access when the service closes. On Videas, you give it back: announce your channel’s address on your site, your social accounts or by email, and once they have created an account, you open a free access for them from their customer record.
Can my Vimeo On Demand catalog be moved over?
Yes: our team pulls your videos straight from Vimeo for free, with their titles and descriptions, or starts from the file export Vimeo gives you, and hands you a mapping table from every old link to its new one. You then set your prices and arrange the catalog in the channel, in the order and categories you choose.
Which alternative doesn’t charge per subscriber?
Videas, Patreon and Gumroad get paid through a commission on what you sell. Vimeo OTT, on its Starter plan, and Uscreen, on its Growth plan, charge for every subscriber on top: the bill grows with your audience, even when your subscription price doesn’t move.
How much does a Videas channel cost?
€10 a month per channel, and a 15% commission on what you sell, payment included; €10 more a month to publish it on your own domain. Storage and delivery are pay-as-you-go, and signing up is free, with €5 in credits on signup and every month after.
Can I sell outright, by rental and by subscription at the same time?
Yes. On a Videas channel, outright purchase, time-limited rental and recurring subscription coexist: you set a price per video, per category or per plan, and payment goes through Stripe, in a checkout in your colours.
Does Videas offer mobile and TV apps?
Native apps are in development. The channel is a website: it opens in the browser of a phone, a tablet or a connected TV, and playback adapts to the connection. If your project depends on an app, tell us before you start.
Where are the videos hosted?
With Videas, in the EU, on infrastructure we run ourselves, with no advertising cookie in the player. Vimeo OTT, Uscreen, Dacast, Patreon and Gumroad are US services: check their terms if your buyers are in Europe.
