What is the usage fee?

The use of the Hotmart Streaming service has an activation fee for each approved sale. The fee is always applied considering the currency of the commission, which means that if the commission is in USD, the fee will also be charged in the same currency. 

Below, you can understand how this fee will be applied, depending on the type of product:

Product type Value of the Video Player Activation Fee
One-time payment products 1.49 EUR/USD or 2.49 BRL per approved sale.
Subscription products

The value will vary between the first subscription recurrence and the others:

  • First recurrence: 1.49 EUR/USD or 2.49 BRL.
  • Subsequent recurrences: 0.30 EUR/USD or 0.50 BRL.
Products sold as a bundle

The activation fee is multiplied by two.

In this case, the value may vary depending on the types of products sold in the bundle:

  • In the case of one-time payment products or subscriptions in the first recurrence: 2.98 EUR/USD or 4.99 BRL.
  • Subsequent recurrences of a subscription: 1.20 EUR/USD or 1.00 BRL.

Important information about videos

When uploading a video to your page, it is important to know some information:

  • Using the same video in multiple lessons
    It is possible to upload a video to the Player and use it in multiple lessons, without needing to upload the same video to all of them. That is, a video can be used in several different lessons.

  • Video limit
    Up to 3 videos are allowed per page, and the files must be a maximum of 20GB.

  • Video thumbnail
    With the video file uploaded, you can change the thumbnail of your video by clicking on the Change image button that will appear just below the thumbnail.
    Remember that a video can only have one thumbnail. When the creator changes the thumbnail of a video used in several lessons, the change reflects in all the lessons that use the video.

  • Subtitles
    You can add subtitles, as well as automatic translations to your videos, and you can also edit and download them. To know how, check out this article.

  • Compatibility with Smart TV
    Not all Smart TVs are compatible with the Hotmart app, which is available for Samsung Tizen 2017-2021, LG WebOS 2017-2021, or Android TV (Android 7.0 - 9.0). Due to the initial phase of availability or the TV's operating system, the Hotmart TV app may not be available for download and use on some Smart TVs.
