Not every fan wants a subscription — some just want that one scene. VOD (video on demand) lets you sell individual scenes for a one-time price.
Setting a VOD price
- Go to Content → Scenes and open the scene's options.
- Choose Set VOD Price.
- Pick from the available price points (starting from $1, with common options like $5, $10, $15, $20, and $25) and save.
The scene now shows a purchase option to visitors and members, and buyers get access to that scene without needing a subscription.
A lower price for your members
Active members still pay for pay-per-view scenes. You can give them a discount by setting an optional Members price alongside the regular price.
- Open Set VOD Price on the scene.
- Choose your regular price first.
- Under Members price (optional), pick the lower price members will pay — or leave it on None, and members pay the regular price.
Your tour shows the members price on the join button, so visitors can see that joining gets them cheaper scenes — it turns pay-per-view pricing into an argument for subscribing.
Two things to know
- It's only available on scenes set to pay-per-view. The Members price option appears only when that scene's access is set to VOD — it won't show for scenes included with membership or restricted to premium. This is a per-scene setting, not something you set on a category.
- It must be lower than the regular price. Only prices below the one you picked are offered, and if you change the regular price to something at or below the members price, the members price resets to None — so set your regular price first, then the discount.
Where purchases show up
- Members → VOD Members lists everyone who has bought scenes.
- Reports → Purchases shows your pay-per-view sales, averages per scene and per buyer, and trends over time.
Showing or hiding the VOD button
You control whether the VOD purchase button appears across your site from the theme's advanced settings — useful if you want to run a subscription-only site, or switch VOD on for a big release.
Tips
- Premium-length or special releases justify higher price points; shorter clips do better at lower ones.
- A strong trailer dramatically increases VOD sales — buyers want to know what they're getting.
- VOD buyers are warm leads: they've already paid once, so they're your best audience for a subscription pitch.
