Re-stream to social media

You can re-stream your live event to various social media platforms. However, we will only send the video feed to these platforms. Users will have to visit the web application to purchase products, good news they can continue watching the live event from there directly.

The ideal workflow is to use social streaming channels to promote your event and then link to your web application for users to continue to watch and purchase.
