"Expired" can mean three different things, and only one of them is your subscription.

How to tell

  • If the message mentions activation or MAC, it is the app.
  • If your order date plus plan length has passed, it is the subscription.
  • If you just renewed, refresh the playlist or update the login if it changed.

Renewing Viking IPTV

Renew on the Viking IPTV pricing page and keep your order email. See renewing without losing settings.

Questions and answers

My IPTV app says expired but I just paid. Why?

Either the app's own trial ended, or the app still holds old details. Check which.

Does the IBO Player fee renew my IPTV?

No, it only activates the app.

Will renewing change my login?

Usually it extends the same login. Refresh the playlist if anything changed.
