Plans start at €12 for a month and fall to about €4.92 a month on a yearly term. Each one opens 25,000+ live channels, catch-up and 120,000+ on-demand titles. You only decide how long and how many screens.
What does IPTV cost in Ireland? One screen is €12 for a month or €59 for twelve months, roughly €4.92 for each of those months. There is no cheaper tier with fewer channels and no dearer tier with more. Every plan carries the same Irish and UK terrestrial channels, the same sport, the same film library and the same catch-up. Only two things change the total: how long the plan runs and how many screens play at once.
Below is the full price grid, a plain look at what the money pays for, and a fair comparison with a television package and the streaming apps most Irish homes already pay for.

Every term carries the identical line-up: Irish and UK terrestrial channels, live sport, 25,000+ channels across 60+ countries and 120,000+ films and series, with 4K wherever a source exists. Nothing is on contract, nothing renews by itself, and a 7-day refund window applies throughout. Prices shown in EUR.

Paying more here buys extra months or extra screens. It never buys extra content, because nothing sits behind a second paywall. A one-month plan on a phone and a five-screen year on the family televisions open exactly the same line-up.
Add up an Irish television bill honestly and it is rarely one line. There is the package itself, often on a twelve or eighteen month contract. There may be a sport tier on top. Then there are the streaming apps, two or three per household in many homes, each small on its own and considerable together. Prices differ between providers and change over time, so check your own current statements rather than trusting any figure quoted on a sales page.
We will be straight about the other side as well. EmeraldIPTV does not include Netflix, Disney+, Max or any other platform, and it does not carry their original series. If one exclusive drama is the reason you subscribe somewhere, keep that app. What you get here is Irish and UK television, live sport, a large general film library and catch-up, in one player, for one euro fee.
| Point to compare | A TV package plus streaming apps | EmeraldIPTV |
|---|---|---|
| Billing | A separate charge for the package and each app | One payment for the whole term |
| Contract | Often 12 or 18 months on the TV package | None, and nothing renews by itself |
| Irish and UK channels | Included in the package | Both, in the standard line-up |
| Films and series | Each platform shows its own catalogue and originals | 120,000+ titles in a general library, no third-party originals |
| Live sport | Usually a paid tier, sometimes split across providers | Carried, apart from pay-per-view and league-only platforms |
| 4K picture | Rare, or only on the top tier | 4K where the source exists, at no surcharge |
| Installation | A dish or an engineer visit | Nothing to install, it runs over broadband |
| Trying it first | Rarely offered | Free 24-hour trial, no card |

At the bottom of the market you will find services priced at a euro or two a month, and lifetime plans for a single payment. A few run for a while. Many vanish overnight, freeze when a big match starts, and leave nobody to message. A tiny price stops being a bargain the evening the picture refuses to load.
Our lowest rate, the yearly plan near €4.92 a month, pays for the things you only notice when they are missing. Servers with room to spare on a Saturday night. Channels kept in working order. Broken streams replaced quickly. Support that answers at two in the morning. Whoever you buy from, test on a busy evening before you trust the price.
Time is where most of the saving hides. A single month is €12. A quarter is €25, less than paying twice. Half a year is €39, about the cost of three separate months. A full year at €59 beats buying five months one at a time.
| Term | Cost on one screen | Monthly equivalent | A good fit when |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 month | €12 | €12.00 | You want a full month of evenings after the trial before committing |
| 3 months | €25 | about €8.33 | You are following one season of a championship or a league |
| 6 months | €39 | €6.50 | Winter sport and weekend family viewing are already a habit |
| 12 months | €59 | about €4.92 | The television is on most nights for news, sport and series |
Watching most nights? The yearly plan is clearly the lowest cost per evening, and a plan already paid for keeps its price even if list prices change. Unsure how much you will use it? Start with a month and move up later. No plan rolls into a new charge when it ends. If you are still weighing things up, the guide to buying an IPTV subscription in Ireland covers the decision in more detail.
Each screen equals one stream playing at that moment. Install the player on every device in the house if you like; only the number you paid for can run together. So think about your busiest evening, not your quietest.
| Who is watching | Peak hour at home | Screens | Yearly cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Solo viewer | A film on the television, or an episode on the phone in bed | 1 screen | €59 |
| Couple | One follows the match while the other works through a box set | 2 screens | €99 |
| Parents and children | Cartoons in one room, the championship in another, news in the kitchen | 3 screens | €139 |
| House share or large family | Four or five people, each with their own programme | 5 screens | €215 |
Screens get cheaper as you add them. Two separate single-screen years would total €118, while the two-screen year is €99. Split a five-screen year across a house share and each person is paying about €43 for the year. Monthly prices scale the same way, rising from €20 on two screens to €29 on three and €45 on five. The Dublin page works through how a shared house usually splits it.
There is no basket and no account page to fill in. You order in a single WhatsApp chat, and that chat stays open afterwards as your help line.
Using a Fire TV Stick? The Firestick setup guide explains which player to choose while your login is on its way.
The plan is the main spend, and there is no installation charge, call-out fee or deposit. A few other items can matter, so they are worth knowing before you order.
Nothing else is billed by us. The channels, catch-up, sport, 4K and support all sit inside the plan price.
Each plan carries a 7-day money back window. If the service is not right for you in that time, say so in the WhatsApp chat and the team will arrange it. The refund policy sets out the full terms on a public page, which is where refund terms belong.
You sign no contract, and no plan charges you again automatically. When a term reaches its end date, the login simply stops until you decide to order again.

Tell us on WhatsApp how many months and screens you want. The login for Irish TV, sport and films usually arrives in under 15 minutes.
One screen is €12 for a single month. The monthly rate falls sharply with longer terms: €25 buys three months, €39 buys six and €59 buys twelve, about €4.92 a month. The shortest term unlocks exactly the same 25,000+ live channels and 120,000+ on-demand titles as the longest one.
Prices vary widely between sellers, so compare what each plan delivers rather than the headline number. Here, one screen runs from €12 for a month to €59 for a year. Households pay more, from €20 a month for two screens up to €215 for a year across five. Prices far below the normal range usually mean crowded servers.
Over a full year, the twelve month single-screen plan at €59 is the lowest cost, close to €4.92 a month. The €12 monthly plan asks less up front but comes to €144 across a year. Both open the same 25,000+ channels and 120,000+ films and series, so the cheaper route never shrinks what you can watch.
A year on a single screen is €59. For larger households a twelve month plan is €99 for two screens, €139 for three and €215 for five. That covers a full year of live channels, catch-up, 120,000+ on-demand titles and WhatsApp support at any hour, paid once and never renewed without your say-so.
The pricing page lists a twelve month plan at €59 on one screen. That costs less than five single months bought one at a time, and it runs the whole year with no renewal charge waiting at the end. Order it on WhatsApp in a single payment, or start with the free 24-hour trial if you want to look around first.
For most viewers yes, because a paid service still works on the evening you finally sit down. Free streams break constantly and nobody answers when they do. A subscription here pairs maintained servers with Irish and UK channels, sport, a large film library, a refund promise and real replies on WhatsApp, from €59 for a full year on one screen.
Usually, but do the sum yourself rather than trust a sales line. Add up your television package, any sport add-on and each streaming subscription in the house, then compare with €59 a year on one screen or €139 for three. Remember that named streaming platforms and their original series are not included here, and never claimed to be.
No, everything is inside the plan price. The 120,000+ films and series, catch-up on supported channels, every live channel and streams in 4K, FHD and HD belong to every plan. There are no premium tiers, rental fees or add-on packs, so a viewer on the €12 monthly plan browses exactly the same library as a five-screen household.
None. There is nothing to install on a roof and nobody visits the house, so there is no call-out charge, no equipment fee and no deposit. The only cost beyond the subscription is a streaming stick or box, and only if your television has no apps of its own. Buy that from an ordinary retailer.
Payment happens inside your WhatsApp chat with the team. Say which plan length and screen count you want, and the available payment options come back in the same thread. Once payment is confirmed, the login follows in that conversation, normally under 15 minutes later. There is no website checkout and no card stored on this site.
No. A plan already paid for keeps its price for the whole term, even if list prices change afterwards. That is the trade for committing to a longer period. When the term ends you are free to take the new price, choose a different length or screen count, or simply walk away without cancelling anything.
