Sell Your Videos through Vimeo On Demand

Vimeo® is a high-quality video platform for creative people. Founded in 2004, Vimeo wants to empower people around the world to create, share and discover videos. Vimeo has over 15 million registered members and reaches a global audience of more than 93 million  each month.

Through their new Vimeo On Demand service, VimeoPro members can sell their works directly to their audiences and retain a 90 percent of the revenue after transaction costs. As a creator, you can choose your own price, select country-by-country availability, customize your page design, and offer content on Vimeo, your own website, or both.

“Vimeo is committed to empowering creators with tools to display and distribute their work in beautiful HD quality,” said Vimeo CEO, Kerry Trainor . “With the addition of Vimeo On Demand, creators can now use Vimeo to control the way they earn revenue and retain a significant portion of the proceeds.”

Videos purchased through Vimeo On Demand are accessible across devices, including desktop PCs, mobile devices (Android/iOS/Windows), connected TV devices (Apple TV/Roku/Google TV/Xbox Live), and major smart TV platforms (Samsung/Panasonic/Phillips).

“What used to be a confusing and labor-intensive process is now open and simple with Vimeo On Demand,” said Blake Whitman, vice president of creative development. “We always strive to provide our community and visitors with the best experience possible, and this opens up a new world of viewable content and support for creators. We are proud of this first phase of Vimeo On Demand, and we’re already working on another suite of creator-focused features to release in the near future.”

Vimeo On Demand launched at the SXSW Interactive + Film Festival with a screening of It’s Such a Beautiful Day, the latest work by Academy Award-nominated animator and self-distribution pioneer Don Hertzfeldt. Vimeo On Demand is offering the newly re-mastered and expanded version of It’s Such a Beautiful Day for a $2.00 rental fee or $6.00 sale price.
