Club account

[Jcarc]

I don't know if this is possible, but I am the "webmaster" of a radio club in which I have links to some of the scanner radios on the system. Is it possible to have any club member accessing that page have access to the premium part of Broadcastify? I'd like to provide that as a perk to the members, but don't want to violate any TOS rules. Or perhaps there's an option for a small and poor not for profit (community service organization) club to have that offered to its members???

I would think a member of even a small and poor not for profit would be able to afford $2.50 a month (paid yearly) to gain premium access.

I would think so, but I might convince the club to have a premium account that allow...say 20 members to have access to viewing the scanner streams online without any ads. I'm likely going to renew since I do have a personal use for it, but a club membership account could be an idea. I'm just thinking of a club benefit just for being a member. It might not work nor be viable, but who knows?

You might want to check the TOS and see what it says about sharing a login.

Only because I was curious, i looked at the T&C on Broadcastify and aside from the part in section 4 about maintaining confidentiality of login credentials, i'm not seeing anything about sharing a login.

Is there a second set of terms somewhere I missed?

Also, insofar as the original post, technically, wouldnt this be the same as Broadcastify licensing a commercial group account, like i assume they do to aggregators or media or other commercial consumers? Thats probably WAY out of the expected budget of the original post though

But where is the benefit for RR in a club account, you only talk about the benefit to the club, and what would prevent a member from sharing the club login with Cousin Jimmy? If someone knows it is a shared account they won't worry about sharing it outside the club. I still think it would be a loss for RR.
