Video on Demand

Your own video on demand library

Turn class recordings, tutorials, and exclusive content into a recurring revenue stream — without sending your members to YouTube. A premium video library your members will actually use, with your name on it from end to end.

Why it matters

Why studios are adding video on demand

Members already pay for video on demand elsewhere. Now you can give them a library with your name on it — class replays they can watch on their schedule, programs they can follow at their own pace, and exclusive content they can't get anywhere else.

Open a new revenue line
Sell on-demand content as a premium add-on, bundle it into your top-tier membership, or use it to convert trial users into paying subscribers.
Keep members engaged between visits
Members who can't make Tuesday's 6am class no longer cancel — they catch the replay. Engagement stays high, churn goes down.
Reach members who can't make it in person
Travelers, new parents, members who moved out of town — keep them paying by giving them a way to stay connected from anywhere.
Train your team and run hybrid programs
Use the same library to host hybrid teacher training, onboard new staff, and keep instructors aligned on technique — internal courses sit alongside member-facing content with separate access rules.
Upload & organize

Drag, drop, done

Upload right from your Zipper dashboard — even multi-gigabyte class recordings. Resumable uploads mean a flaky connection won't kill a long file. Group videos into categories, build multi-week programs, and tag anything for easy search. Your library scales with your content.

  • One-click upload for multi-gigabyte recordings.
  • Categories & programs — Yoga, Strength, 30-Day Challenge.
  • Tag anything for search and on-app discovery.

Members pick up where they left off

Watch progress is tracked automatically. A member starts a 45-minute flow on their phone in the morning and finishes it on their TV at night — picking up exactly where they paused. The kind of detail that makes the experience feel like a real video library, not a file dump.

  • Resume anywhere — phone, tablet, desktop, smart TV.
  • Watch progress synced across devices in real time.
  • Continue Watching rail surfaces what they started.

Class replays

Class replays, automatically connected

Recorded a Tuesday morning class? It links back to that exact event in your calendar. Members find it by browsing the library or by tapping the class they missed. No manual organizing, no naming conventions to maintain.

  • Auto-linked to the calendar event the class came from.
  • Surfaced in-app next to the class the member missed.
  • Bulk uploads with auto-tagging for back-catalog recordings.

Playback quality

Built on the same kind of infrastructure behind Netflix and Disney+

Videos play smoothly on any device, any connection, anywhere in the world. Your studio gets enterprise-grade delivery without an enterprise-grade ops team.

Adaptive HLS playback
Quality adjusts on the fly to the member's connection — smooth playback on hotel wifi, the train, or a fiber line at home.
Mobile, tablet, desktop, smart TV
A single library, every screen — with global CDN delivery so playback starts fast no matter where members travel.
Secure, signed playback
Expiring, signed playback links mean content can't be ripped, downloaded, or shared off-platform.

Common questions

Do my members need a separate login?
No. They sign in once to your member portal — videos are right there alongside class schedules and bookings.
Can I sell videos individually, or is it subscription-only?
Both. Bundle them into a membership, sell access to a specific program, or lock individual videos behind a one-time purchase.
What happens to my existing class recordings?
Upload them in bulk and tag the ones tied to specific classes. They auto-link back to the calendar events they came from, so members find them by browsing the library or by tapping the class they missed.
Is my content protected?
Yes. Videos play through expiring, signed playback links — they can't be downloaded, screen-grabbed for redistribution, or shared outside your platform.
How many videos can I upload?
There's no hard cap on the number of videos. Storage and bandwidth scale with your plan — chat with us if you're planning a massive library.
What devices can my members watch on?
Mobile, tablet, desktop, and smart TV — adaptive HLS playback adjusts quality to whatever connection the member is on, so videos stay smooth even on weaker networks.
Can I see what's working?
Yes. Track which videos get the most views, who's watching, and how far they make it through each one — so you can double down on the content your members actually love.
How do I price it?
Studios commonly bundle on-demand video into a top-tier membership, sell it as a separate "Digital Studio" subscription, or run it as a paid program. You can mix all three approaches in the same library.
Is video on demand included in every plan?
Video on demand is available as a premium add-on for studios on Zipper. Talk to us about getting it turned on for your account.
