WHMCS IPTV modules: what they cost, and the alternative

What a WHMCS IPTV module does

WHMCS is billing software for web hosting companies. Out of the box it creates hosting accounts on control panels such as cPanel, Plesk and DirectAdmin. An IPTV module teaches it to do the same on an IPTV panel.

• ●Creates the customer's line on the panel when the order is paid.
• ●Suspends the line when an invoice goes overdue, and re-activates it when the invoice is paid.
• ●Terminates the line when the service is cancelled.
• ●Some modules also let the customer change a password or a MAC address from the WHMCS client area.

What the whole setup costs

The module is only one of three bills. These are the prices on the sellers' own pages in October 2026.

• ●The WHMCS licence: self-hosted from $34.95 a month for up to 250 active clients, $54.95 for 500 and $84.95 for 1,000. There is no one-time licence on the pricing page.
• ●The IPTV module: sold by third parties. On the WHMCS Marketplace an NXT module is listed at $24 and an XUI ONE module at $149 per year, for one installation.
• ●A server: self-hosted WHMCS runs on your own web server, which you rent, secure and keep updated.
• ●Your time: installing WHMCS and the module, and checking that the module still works each time WHMCS is upgraded — modules list the WHMCS versions they are compatible with.

Which panels a module covers

Each module covers one panel family and comes from a different developer. If you run two kinds of panel, you buy and maintain two modules. WHMCS also offers a managed Cloud edition, but WHMCS says it currently supports only pre-approved modules from its marketplace — so check that your IPTV module is approved before choosing it.

What a module does not give you

The module is the connection between billing and the panel. The shop your customers see is still the WHMCS client area and order forms, which are designed for hosting products — an IPTV-style storefront is a separate theme or extra work, and so are things like selling inside Discord or Telegram.

The hosted alternative: IPTVbp

IPTVbp is not a module and needs no WHMCS. It is a hosted billing platform made only for IPTV resellers and panel owners.

• ●18 IPTV panels built in — NXT, XUI, Xtream UI, Ultra 8K, Strong 8K, Activation Panel and 12 more — plus Plex, Jellyfin and Emby. No module to buy or keep compatible.
• ●A storefront made for IPTV: ready-made themes, your own domain, free-trial products, multi-connection plans and M3U or MAC delivery by email.
• ●16 payment gateways, crypto included. Discord and Telegram billing bots are available as add-on modules.
• ●Nothing to install or update — we host it.
• ●Free to start: free until you have 25 paying customers, no card. Paid plans from €29 a month.
• ●Coming from WHMCS: we move you over free of charge — your clients, their subscriptions, stream logins and renewal dates — and nobody's stream is interrupted.

When a WHMCS module is still the right call

If hosting is your main business — domains, cPanel accounts, servers — and IPTV is a small extra, keeping everything in WHMCS with an IPTV module gives you one client area for all of it. WHMCS registers domains with 100+ registrars and provisions hosting accounts; IPTVbp does neither.
