  • OTT: It's your branded site, created with the help of our tools. This is where you can add your content and monetize products. Users visit this site to purchase access and enjoy the content.

  • Right Owner: That's you!

  • Partner Account: This is your control panel for adding new content to the OTT.

  • Collections: You can group your videos by adding them to collections. These collections will appear in the "Collections" section of the Partner Account and will have a special player to help users navigate through them.

  • Widgets: The widget is a small button in the video's upper right corner. It can function as a button-type link or a form to fill out.

  • Tags: Tagging is a way of assigning descriptive information to content. Tags can help categorize content and make it easier to find what you are looking for.

  • Bumpers: Video bumpers are short (usually 10 seconds or less) video clips that typically show the brand, sponsor, or partners. Video bumpers can be included at the start or end of your video.

  • Markdown: Markdown is an easy-to-use markup language that is used with plain text to add formatting elements (headings, bulleted lists, URLs) to plain text without the use of a formal text editor or the use of HTML tags. Markdown is device-agnostic and displays the writing format consistently across device types. (You can use this when creating Posts for your OTT.)

  • Slug: A URL slug (also known as website slug) is the last part of the URL address that serves as a unique identifier of the page. It holds SEO importance (keyword/s) and could provide a concise description of a page.

  • Example:

  • UTM: UTM codes are short pieces of text added at the end of a URL to track marketing campaigns. This helps you better understand your audience. The UTM code is everything that comes after the "?" in the URL. You can review the corresponding data for each campaign in Partner Account Analytics. (https://sprintty.com/partner/analytics/)

  • PPV: Pay-per-view (PPV) is a type of pay that enables a viewer to pay to watch content such as streams and video recordings for a certain amount of time.

  • Subscription: repeated transactions that are scheduled on a regular basis. A viewer pays a certain amount of money regularly to receive a product.

  • Stream card: This is your stream file where you fill data and receive broadcast from your encoder.

  • Stream Entrypoint: in a video streaming service, the "stream entry point" is a non-expiring KEY that your device uses to send its video stream to the streaming server. To put it simply, the "stream entry point" is your permanent link for streaming.
