IPTV Ireland FAQ 2026 — Everything You Need to Know

IPTV stands for Internet Protocol Television. It delivers television content over the internet rather than through traditional terrestrial, satellite or cable formats. When you subscribe to Evergreen IPTV, you receive login credentials that you enter into a compatible app on your Smart TV, Fire Stick, phone or computer. The app connects to our high-speed servers across Europe and streams live channels and on-demand content directly to your device in real time. All you need is a broadband internet connection of at least 10 Mbps for HD quality or 25 Mbps for 4K Ultra HD.

IPTV technology itself is completely legal in Ireland and throughout the European Union. Major broadcasters like RTÉ, BBC, ITV and Sky all use IPTV technology to deliver their official streaming platforms. The legality of an IPTV service depends on the content licensing agreements in place. Evergreen IPTV operates within the framework of Irish and EU broadcasting regulations. We always recommend that our customers use IPTV services responsibly and in compliance with the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland guidelines. If you have specific legal questions, consult a qualified legal professional.

For standard definition (SD) streaming, a minimum of 5 Mbps is sufficient. For high definition (HD), we recommend at least 10 Mbps. For Full HD (1080p), 15 Mbps is ideal. For 4K Ultra HD streaming, you will need a minimum of 25 Mbps. Most broadband packages in Ireland from providers like eir, Virgin Media, Sky and Vodafone comfortably exceed these speeds. For the best experience, we recommend using a wired Ethernet connection rather than WiFi, especially for 4K content on your main television.

Yes, our service is compatible with all major Smart TV brands available in Ireland. Samsung TVs running Tizen OS, LG TVs running WebOS, Sony, Philips, Hisense, TCL and other brands are all supported. You can install IPTV Smarters Pro, Smart IPTV or other compatible apps directly from your television app store. For older Smart TVs that may not support these apps natively, we recommend using an Amazon Fire Stick 4K, which plugs into any TV with an HDMI port and transforms it into a powerful IPTV streaming device.

EPG stands for Electronic Programme Guide. It is a digital on-screen TV guide that shows you what is currently playing and what programmes are scheduled for the coming days on each channel. Yes, our IPTV service includes a full EPG guide that covers hundreds of channels with detailed programme information. The EPG integrates with our 7-day catch-up feature, so if you spot a programme you missed, you can jump back and watch it on demand directly from the guide.

Buffering is almost always caused by your local internet connection rather than our servers. Here are the most common fixes: (1) Switch from WiFi to a wired Ethernet connection. (2) Restart your router and streaming device. (3) Close other bandwidth-heavy applications on your network. (4) Change your DNS settings to Google DNS (8.8.8.8) or Cloudflare DNS (1.1.1.1). (5) Contact your internet provider to check for throttling. Our servers maintain 99.9 per cent uptime with anti-freeze technology, so if buffering persists after trying these steps, contact our support team and we will troubleshoot further.

The number of simultaneous screens depends on your subscription plan. Basic allows 1 screen, Premium allows 2, 4K VIP allows 3, and Family allows up to 4 screens at the same time. Each screen can watch a completely different channel or on-demand title independently. You can install the app on an unlimited number of devices, but only the allowed number can be actively streaming at any given moment.

We accept a wide range of payment methods to make subscribing as convenient as possible for Irish customers. Our primary payment method is PayPal, which provides buyer protection and security. We also accept Visa, Mastercard, Revolut and cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Ethereum). All transactions are processed through secure, encrypted payment gateways. We never store your credit card details on our servers.

No. The price you see on our plans page is the price you pay. There are no setup fees, no activation charges, no hidden taxes and no surprise additions to your bill. Our prices are fully inclusive and clearly displayed in euros. The Basic plan is €35 per year (€2.92/month), Premium is €45 per year (€3.75/month), 4K VIP is €59 per year (€4.92/month), and Family is €69 per year (€5.75/month). That is all you pay — nothing more.

We offer a 48-hour money-back guarantee on all subscription plans.

Refunds are typically returned to your original payment method within 24 to 48 hours depending on your bank or payment provider.

Your subscription does not automatically renew. When your annual subscription period ends, you will receive a reminder via WhatsApp with an option to renew. There are no automatic charges and you are never locked into a recurring payment. This gives you full control over your subscription and ensures you are never charged unexpectedly.

Installing IPTV on your Samsung Smart TV is straightforward. First, open the Samsung App Store (Smart Hub) on your TV. Search for « IPTV Smarters Pro » and install the app. Once installed, open the app and select « Login with Xtream Codes API ». Enter the username, password and server URL that we provide via WhatsApp. Press « Add User » and all your channels will load within seconds. The entire process takes less than five minutes.

Turn on your Fire Stick and navigate to the search icon. Search for « IPTV Smarters Pro » and install it from the Amazon App Store. Open the app, select « Login with Xtream Codes API » and enter the credentials we send you via WhatsApp. If the app is not available in your region, you can enable « Apps from Unknown Sources » in Settings > My Fire TV > Developer Options, then use the Downloader app to side-load the IPTV Smarters Pro APK from our download link.

Activation is almost instant. Once your payment is confirmed, our team sends your personalised login credentials via WhatsApp within minutes. Most customers are watching their first channel within 60 seconds of receiving their login details. Our average activation time across all customers is approximately three minutes from payment to streaming.

Yes. Your subscription is tied to your login credentials, not to any specific device. You can log in on any compatible device using the same username and password. If you buy a new television, phone or streaming device, simply install the IPTV app and enter your existing credentials. You can use your subscription on as many devices as you like — the only limit is the number of simultaneous streams, which depends on your plan.

Yes. One of the biggest advantages of IPTV over traditional satellite or cable television is that it works anywhere in the world with a stable internet connection. Whether you are on holiday in Spain, on a business trip in America, or visiting family in Australia, you can access your full Evergreen IPTV subscription exactly as you would at home in Ireland. If a hotel or public WiFi network restricts streaming, a simple VPN will resolve the issue.

Yes, we include RTÉ One, RTÉ Two, RTÉ News, RTÉ Jr and RTÉ Gold, all in Full HD quality. You can watch the Late Late Show, Fair City, Nationwide, the news, sports coverage and all other RTÉ programming live. Our 7-day catch-up feature also works on RTÉ channels, so you can go back and watch anything you missed during the past week.

Some Irish internet service providers, including eir, have been known to throttle or restrict IPTV traffic in certain cases. If you experience issues, the simplest solution is to change your DNS settings to Google DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) or Cloudflare DNS (1.1.1.1). This can usually be done in your router settings and takes less than two minutes. If the issue persists, using a VPN service will bypass any ISP restrictions entirely. Our support team can walk you through both solutions step by step.

Our primary support channel is WhatsApp. You can message us at any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Our average response time is just 8 minutes. We also offer email support for non-urgent queries. Our support team speaks English and can help with installation, troubleshooting, billing questions, plan changes and any other issue you may have.

In the rare event of a server issue, our technical team is alerted automatically and begins working on a fix immediately. We maintain redundant server infrastructure across multiple European data centres to minimise the risk of downtime. Over the past 12 months, our uptime has been 99.9 per cent. If you experience an outage, check our WhatsApp status for updates or message our support team for real-time information on the issue and estimated resolution time.
