Livestreaming: Getting started
1. Create the live stream
First we need to create the live stream.
- As an organizer for the event, go to Settings → Livestreams
- Select the mats you want to livestream
- Select the platform you want to livestream to:
Our Pay Per View platform that automatically cuts and connects matches to brackets and user profiles and gives you the best watch page on the internet.

Visibility let's you select who the stream will be visible for. If the stream is created through YouTube this status will also sync with the YouTube setting.
- Public: All visitors can see the stream on your event page.
- Private: Only you and your staff can see the stream on your event page. This setting can be changed later if you want to test a stream before going live.
- *Unlisted: All visitors can see the stream on your event page. However, on Youtube it will be "unlisted", meaning only people with the link are able to see it.
* Applies only for YouTube
2. Start streaming
Once the stream is created (step 1) you are now ready to start streaming!
