Buying
What is the Xtream-Masters OTT panel?
Xtream-Masters is a self-hosted IPTV / OTT panel for Ubuntu 20.04 to 26.04. It installs on your own servers and manages live channels, movies, series, users, resellers and load balancers from one admin panel. It replaces Xtream UI, XUI.ONE and NXT, and migrates their databases and those of other panels.
How much does the IPTV panel cost?
The license is €40 per month until 31 December 2026, then €70 per month from 1 January 2027. One license covers the main server and unlimited load balancers. Multi-Main is an optional €199 one-time add-on.
Is there a free trial?
No. Instead you get a full refund if you ask within 3 days of purchase, paid by PayPal or credit card. Use those 3 days to install, migrate and test while your old panel keeps running. Refunds are paid within 3 working days.
How many load balancers can I add?
Unlimited. One license covers one main server plus as many load balancers as your traffic needs, with no per-server fee.
Are servers or hosting included?
No. Xtream-Masters is self-hosted, so you rent your own dedicated servers. The license covers the panel software, monthly updates and support.
Will the price change?
The price is €40 per month until 31 December 2026 and €70 per month from 1 January 2027. For any later price change, Xtream-Masters guarantees 3 months advance notice on its website.
Install
Which Ubuntu versions does the panel support?
The panel runs on Ubuntu 20.04, 22.04, 24.04 and 26.04 for the main server and load balancers. A fresh Ubuntu 24.04 install is recommended. The Multi-Main add-on needs Ubuntu 24.04 or newer.
How long does installation take?
About 2 to 5 minutes. After purchase you get a Master CMS login (ID starting with xm:), enter your server SSH details and the panel installs itself.
What server do I need for the main panel?
A dedicated Ubuntu server with at least 32 GB RAM is recommended for the main server. Install the panel on a fresh Ubuntu installation for the best security.
Which ports does the panel use?
The admin panel uses port 7709 by default, and you can change it in the Master CMS panel with Edit Port. Streaming uses ports 80, 8080, 443 and 8443, and the panel database uses port 7999.
Migration
Can I migrate from Xtream UI, XUI.ONE, NXT or another panel?
Yes. In the Master CMS panel, add your main server, click Migrate Database, then connect to your old database remotely or upload a mysqldump file as /root/backup.sql (or .sql.gz). Pick your old panel (Xtream UI, XUI, NXT or another panel) and click Migrate.
What data moves across in a migration?
Users, lines, bouquets, streams, movies, series, categories, resellers and settings all move across from your old panel.
Do I need to shut down my old panel to switch?
No. Keep your old panel running during the 3-day refund period. Migrate a copy of the database, test everything, and switch your customers when you are satisfied.
Can I leave Xtream-Masters later and take my data?
Yes. Xtream-Masters backups are supported by the other major panels on the market, so your data is not locked in.
Security
How is the admin login protected?
Use a strong password and enable Access Codes under Menu > System Security > Access Code. An access code adds a second secret to the admin login link, so a leaked password alone is not enough to get in.
Does the panel protect against DDoS attacks?
Yes. Server Guard filters Layer-7 DDoS and brute-force attacks and can whitelist IPs for sensitive ports. For very large floods at peak time, the Multi-Main add-on moves playlist, EPG and portal traffic onto edge nodes so the main server stays online.
How are panel backups handled?
There are three copies: automatic backups on the main server in /home/xtreamaster/backups/, an encrypted copy in xDrive cloud (free add-on included with the license) and an optional copy in your Dropbox via API.
Does my service go down if Xtream-Masters servers go down?
No. The panel core runs on your own server, so end users keep watching. The admin and reseller panels are reachable through up to 5 panel CDNs, so you can switch to another one if one is down.
Support
What support is included?
Every license includes video tutorials, documentation and technical support for software issues through support tickets. Include your Master CMS ID (xm:) when you open a ticket.
Can you set up my servers for me?
Standard support gives you video tutorials, documentation and help with software issues; you are expected to have basic server knowledge. For hands-on help there is premium support at €50 per hour: the team diagnoses and resolves technical issues, checks your configuration and optimizes your server setup.
How often is the panel updated?
New features and improvements are released every month and applied with automatic one-click updates.
Where is the technical documentation?
Step-by-step technical guides for ports, SSL, Cloudflare, load balancers, restore and troubleshooting are on ottpanel.tv/faqs. This page covers buyer questions.
