Livestreaming with SolidSport
Together with our partner SolidSport, you can easily get started livestreaming all your matches.
Livestreaming of matches has grown from something reserved for elite sports into something available to youth sports at every level. Our partner SolidSport was founded with the vision of making it possible for every sport at every level to livestream. With AI cameras that automatically follow the action, the workload for you is lower and it becomes easy to deliver a professional experience – and earn extra money for the tournament on top of that!
The video player is connected directly to your schedule, so visitors find exactly the right match to watch.

Features and overview
A new revenue stream for the tournament
With SolidSport's pay-per-view solution, you can let viewers pay either per match or a single price for the whole tournament. Payment is made easily by card the moment someone wants to watch.
You get clear reporting and the money is paid out directly to your account.
SolidSport and Cup Manager take a share of the revenue to cover their costs, but you carry no financial risk.
Fully integrated and automatically synced with Cup Manager and your schedule
When you choose to start livestreaming, we connect your schedule to SolidSport's platform, so any changes you make are automatically updated on your SolidSport channel and broadcasts show at the right time.
Team names are also updated automatically in, for example, playoff matches as teams advance through the tournament.
We also update the scoreboards in the video automatically if you report live scores through Cup Manager.
Get help getting started
SolidSport is a reliable partner that helps you get started. You rent the cameras from SolidSport, who make sure you can install them and check your internet connection.
Livestreams right in the schedule on your website and in the app
Since we sync matches with SolidSport's broadcasts, we can also create a better experience for visitors.
Wherever matches are shown, there's also a video player so people can start watching right away, whether in the app or on your website. This is better for visitors, but it also drives more sales for you.
Live-updated scoreboards
On top of the video, SolidSport can show a scoreboard with the current score. If your tournament also uses our live results service, the Cup Manager system automatically updates the scoreboard in the video the moment a goal is scored.
How much you can earn
Example 1: A tournament with 600 teams and 2,000 matches had 91,000 video views with total revenue of around SEK 300,000.
Example 2: A tournament with 231 teams and 500 matches had 14,000 views and total revenue of around SEK 90,000.
Note that these are just examples. How many viewers buy pay-per-view depends a great deal on how much the tournament promotes itself in general and the streaming specifically. It can also vary depending on whether it's an overnight tournament or not, the mix of age groups, and many other factors.
