Free trial accounts can only create one channel at a time. Live streams broadcasted over a free trial account can only be watched by a maximum of 10-15 people a day (depending on the quality of the live stream) from unique IP addresses.
Any people who try to watch a stream beyond those 15 will receive an error message. Trial accounts are active for 30 days or until the 10 GB of bandwidth is all used up (whichever comes first.)
Once the days or bandwidth run out, users have the option to upgrade to a paid account to make their accounts permanent.
Dacast free trial users cannot access more than 10 GB of bandwidth and 2 GB of available storage. This is far below the bandwidth available through any of our paid plans.
Additionally, free trial users do not have the ability to use FTP to upload video files (files over 2 GB in size), a feature that is available to all paying plans.
Free trial users cannot use the paywall to monetize their live stream. However, the paywall can be activated for testing of the monetization features only. If funds are collected they will be refunded to the original payment method.
Although many other live streaming solutions do not allow white-labeling or ad-free streaming in their free trials, Dacast allows both of these features.
If you’re interested in trying Dacast for free, please contact us us today.

On sign up last ? Is ‘company name? I’m an individual.
Hi Rosie!
If you want to sign up as an individual, you can put any name of a company (Rosie Thomas LLC) for example 😉
We do appreciate to have an idea of what business our clients are in, as we are not a free service.
Hi. I have tried the trial and it works well with my Vidiu GO but I can’t get the password protection to work on the trial account. Is this correct?
Cheers

I would not be sure how to help you, have you tried to go on our support? Everything should be working just fine!
Hi,
does the 15 a day limit only applies to live streams? Or also to hosted videos?
cheers
Hi Pino, It’s correct this only applies to live streams. Have a great day! Best regards
