Questions About Video Gating.

What can I put behind a gate on Open.Video?
Any individual video, any playlist, or your entire channel. You set a channel-wide default access level — Public, Free for Subscribers, or Paid Exclusive — and playlists or individual videos inherit that default automatically unless you override them.
Can I gate a video for free to build my email list?
Yes. Set a video, playlist, or channel to Free for Subscribers and viewers unlock playback with one click via Google or their email address — no credit card required. Every signup creates an Open.Video account and adds a real email row to the subscriber list you can export as CSV or JSON any time.
Do I need my own Stripe account to charge for videos?
No. Same as with Ezoic subscriptions, you can start charging immediately using the built-in Ezoic and Open.Video Stripe account, or connect your own Stripe account if you prefer direct Stripe settlements.
How much does Open.Video take from subscriptions and video unlocks?
0%. Open.Video takes no platform cut on channel subscriptions or one-time Exclusive video and playlist purchases — you keep 100% of your membership and unlock revenue (compared to YouTube keeping 30% of channel memberships). Standard payment-processor fees from Stripe apply.
