How it fits together

Same content. Different content. Your choice.

A Board is a layout with your content. Add your Boards to a Channel, then choose their order and how long each plays. Each TV shows one Channel. Your TVs can share a Channel, or each TV can show its own.

Estate agent Board showing three homes for sale with prices — **Channel 1 · Homes for sale**TV 1 · Player Licence 1

Car dealer Board showing three used cars with prices and mileage — **Channel 2 · Used cars**TV 2 · Player Licence 2

Stadium Board showing a live football score — **Channel 3 · Live score**TV 3 · Player Licence 3

Three different Channels. 3 TVs = 3 Player Licences. Sharing a Channel does not change the price.

Interactive example with real Boards. Free includes one TV; paid plans include unlimited Channels, with Board rotation and timing managed inside each one.

AI Designer · Professional and Enterprise

Answers before you sign up

The shortcut version. For the full breakdown, see advertising FAQ and pricing.

Do I have to sell ads?

Advertising is included on every plan. You decide when to switch it on for a Screen; until then your screens run as pure signage.

How is this different from Yodeck or ScreenCloud?

You pay for each connected TV, with unlimited Boards, Playlists and Channels on paid plans. TVs can share a Channel or show different content. Ad Space is built in: local businesses book a slot, you approve it, and Stripe handles payment.

Is there a contract?

No contract. Monthly billing, cancel any time from your dashboard. Annual billing is available at a discount (12 months for the price of 10) if you want it, but it's optional.

What if I only have one screen?

Free includes one TV, one Channel, one Playlist and five Boards. Your logo and colours are included, with the NowBoard footer. Choose Signal, Soft or Poster and any content type except Property, Motor and Holiday listings. Ad Spaces are unlimited and do not count towards the five Boards. Core signage features: Playlists, time-of-day scheduling and phone or desktop editing.

When do I get paid for ads?

Through Stripe. Once your Stripe payout account is set up, your share of every ad sold is paid out to you. You don't invoice anyone.
