Stream live. Charge for it. Keep everything.
Live performance and live content are how businesses connect deeply with their audience. Permission Base lets any business stream live video behind a paywall — no YouTube, no Vimeo, no Facebook. Your content never touches their servers. Your revenue never touches their cut.
Shopify can't do this. Squarespace can't do this. Wix, Weebly, SoundCloud — none of them. This feature exists nowhere else in our competitive space.
Only encoding and streaming costs are deducted. At 1,000 viewers you keep over 97% of gross revenue — no platform cut, no revenue share.
Four steps from idea to paid stream.
Choose any ticket price for your live stream event — $5, $25, $100. You control the price, full stop.
Stream directly from your Permission Base site — no third-party platform needed. Your content, your server.
Viewers purchase access through your own storefront, on your domain — not a third-party platform's checkout.
Only encoding and streaming costs are deducted. No platform cut. No revenue share. You keep everything else.
Costs stay nearly flat. Revenue scales with your audience.
At 1,000 viewers on a $10 ticket, you keep over 97% of your gross revenue. The math is simple: encoding is a fixed cost, streaming scales with viewers, but both are small relative to what you charge.
$2,500 gross revenue. $2,440 in your pocket.
Profit grows with every viewer you add.
At 10 viewers on a $5 ticket you keep 78%. At 100 viewers you keep 96%. At 5,000 viewers you keep 98%. The more popular your stream, the higher your margin — because encoding is a fixed cost and streaming costs scale slowly relative to revenue.
Every alternative takes something from you.
Everyone else owns your stream, your audience, or your revenue.
YouTube and Facebook own the audience data and serve ads on your content. Vimeo takes a platform cut and isolates your stream from your community. Shopify, Squarespace, and Wix have no live streaming at all. Permission Base is the only platform where live streaming is native, paywalled, and fully integrated with your storefront and community.
Streams are hosted entirely within your Permission Base environment — no third-party platform ever touches your content.
Set any ticket price. Integrate with memberships or point levels. Gate content to your Level 3+ fans automatically.
Live streams connect to your storefront, community, and rewards program — every viewer is a customer and community member in one.
