You don’t. Most of our content is available for free on the Watch page or on our Youtube channel. Memberships just give our viewers a way to support Byline TV and get something back in the way of exclusive bonus content.

There are loads of perks for members, from intimate live Q&As with guests, to behind the scenes footage, livestream chats with producers and early previews of what we’re working on, as well as discounts up to 100% on ticketed events, there are myriad reasons to become a member of Byline TV. 

Oh, and you’ll be actively helping us in building a better media landscape too.

It’s easy – just go to byline.tv/join and select a membership tier. You can upgrade or downgrade your membership at any time depending on your circumstances.

Currently we accept Paypal and Stripe payments, which means you should be able to use any major credit or debit card in the UK and most of Europe and America.

Over the next few months we’re going to try and switchh as many members over to BylineTV+ as possible. 

Because of lower processing and platform fees, we get to keep more of your subscription if you sign up via Byline.tv than via Youtube or Patreon.

We’re going to keep our Patreon and Youtube membership schemes, so you’ll continue to be able to access all of the same benefits with your existing account. But to help us keep building a better media, please consider making the switch.

Byline TV is entirely subscriber funded. That means we don’t have any billionaire patrons or hedge fund investors – it’s just us and you.

We believe that this independence helps to keep us honest, and working to build a better media where our interests are directly aligned to yours, rather than shady backers telling us what to do.
