Loop TV Alternative

Loop TV Alternative: Revenue Share + Your Own Content

Loop TV offers free music-video channels with revenue sharing through their managed network. Trillboards does the same but goes further — open programmatic ad supply, full CMS for your own content, and transparent earnings reporting. Both are free; Trillboards gives you more control.

Why venue owners switch from Loop TV to Trillboards

Open marketplace — not a closed ad network

Loop TV monetizes through its own managed ad network, where fill rates and CPMs depend on Loop's sales pipeline. Trillboards plugs into an open programmatic exchange — hundreds of demand partners bid in real-time for your ad inventory, driving CPMs to market rate rather than network-negotiated rates.

Your content in the mix

Loop TV's value is their curated music video programming. Trillboards is a full CMS: upload your own videos, images, menus, event flyers, and social content. Ads play during configurable breaks, and you control every other second of the screen.

Transparent earnings you can audit

Trillboards shows you every impression, fill rate, and CPM in a live dashboard. Compare your screen-by-screen performance, see which time slots earn the most, and export your earnings data. No black-box revenue share calculations.

Same hardware, zero friction migration

If you're running Loop TV on an Android TV device (Fire TV Stick or similar), install Trillboards from the app store in minutes. No new hardware purchase required. Try Trillboards on one screen while keeping Loop TV running on others.

Frequently asked questions about switching from Loop TV

Does Trillboards offer free music-video content like Loop TV?

Trillboards focuses on venue-owned content plus programmatic ad breaks. Unlike Loop TV, which specializes in curated music video channels, Trillboards is a full CMS — you can upload your own video content, images, and promotions, and schedule ad breaks at intervals you control. If music video content is important to you, Trillboards can be used alongside other IPTV services on the same device.

How is the revenue share model different from Loop TV?

Loop TV shares a portion of ad revenue with venue owners through its own ad network. Trillboards connects your screen to an open programmatic marketplace where hundreds of demand partners bid in real-time for your inventory, resulting in competitive market-rate CPMs and fully transparent earnings reporting.

Is Trillboards free, like Loop TV?

Yes. Trillboards is free to use as a digital signage platform. You earn money from ads rather than paying a subscription. Loop TV is also free but monetizes through its internal ad network. Both models are zero-cost to venues, but Trillboards' open-market approach typically yields higher CPMs.

What content can I show on Trillboards beyond music videos?

Trillboards supports any video format, images, web content, social media feeds, and custom templates. Many venues use it for promotional content (specials, events, loyalty programs), news feeds, sports scores, and branded slideshows — all intermixed with revenue-generating ad breaks.

Does Trillboards work on the same hardware as Loop TV?

Trillboards runs on any Android TV device, including the Fire TV Stick, which is also compatible with Loop TV. If you're running Loop TV on an Android TV device today, you can install Trillboards alongside it or as a replacement without buying new hardware.

How much can I earn switching from Loop TV to Trillboards?

Earnings depend on location traffic, screen count, and time of day. Venues with medium foot traffic typically earn $100–$300 per screen per month. High-traffic locations like busy bars or airport lounges can earn $400–$600 per screen. Use the earnings calculator on this page for an estimate based on your venue type.

Can I control which ad categories appear on my screens with Trillboards?

Yes. Trillboards provides category-level brand safety controls. You can block entire ad verticals — alcohol brands, fast food competitors, gambling — and whitelist specific categories appropriate for your audience. This level of control is not typically available through Loop TV's managed network.
