Uscreen for memberships
A subscription video platform with a Netflix-style catalogue, TV and mobile apps, and a per-subscriber fee on top of the plan.
What Uscreen is
Uscreen is a subscription video platform. Members get a Netflix-style catalogue on the web, on mobile, and on television, and you get real video infrastructure rather than embedded players.
Who it’s best for
Creators whose product genuinely is video: fitness programmes, cooking channels, instructional libraries where people watch several times a week.
- Fitness, cooking, and instructional video libraries
- Memberships where members watch on a television
- Video businesses that want apps without building them
Who should avoid it
Anyone whose members mostly talk to each other, and any membership small enough that a per-subscriber fee outweighs a flat plan.
- Community-led and discussion-based memberships
- Newsletter, podcast, and course-first products
- Small memberships, where the per-subscriber fee bites
Membership models it supports
Not every platform suits every kind of membership. These are the models we consider it a genuine option for.
- Video membership
- Branded mobile app community
- Migrating an existing membership

Important limitations
- The per-subscriber fee is the real cost driver: 500 members on Growth is $995 a month on top of the $149 plan.
- The Starter plan has no custom domain and caps at 100 subscribers.
- Community features and API access sit on the unpublished Custom plan.
Data ownership and migration
Good. Payments run through your own processor, subscribers export, and Uscreen takes no percentage of subscription revenue. The lock-in is your video library.
