Streaming isn’t just about content anymore — it’s about turning that content into income. At Red5Server.com, we make that possible with a powerful combination: Wowza Streaming Engine at the core of our RTMP services, and full support for VAST and VMAP advertising protocols.

If you’re running a live channel, music stream, online radio, religious broadcast, or any form of live content, monetization should be built in — not added later. That’s exactly what we offer.

Why Wowza?

Wowza is the backbone of our RTMP hosting for a reason. It’s stable, flexible, and built for professional-grade performance.

With Wowza, you get:

• Smooth RTMP ingestion for any encoder

• Adaptive bitrate streaming for all devices

• Minimal latency for real-time interaction

• HLS fallback for mobile compatibility

• Secure delivery with token and SSL support

That gives your audience a better experience and gives you the confidence to build your stream into a business.

Built-in VAST & VMAP monetization support

We understand the needs of streamers — and revenue is always top of mind. That’s why every Red5Server RTMP package includes ad support baked directly into our HTML5 player, with no need for plugins or third-party tools.

We support:

• VAST tags for serving standard video ads (pre-roll, mid-roll, post-roll)

• VMAP tags for timed ad playlists during your stream

• Skippable and non-skippable ad formats

• Support for third-party ad networks or your own ad inventory

You keep control. You set the timing. You monetize as you see fit.
