For the viewer
How password protection works
-
You set a password
Add a password to the delivery in a few seconds — and an expiry date if you like.
-
You share two things
Send the link in one message and the password in another for sensitive work.
-
They unlock the page
The recipient enters the password once and sees your branded page.
-
You stay in control
Change the password, extend the date or revoke the delivery whenever you need.
More than a password
Password, expiry and revoke — use them together
A password stops people who stumble on a link. An expiry date makes sure old links stop working after a launch, a festival window or a contract. Revocation lets you shut access immediately if a link was forwarded too far.
Used together, they give you a simple, practical access plan for unreleased campaigns, private events, licensed footage and client deliveries — without forcing anyone to create an account.
- Passwords are stored securely hashed
- Brute-force attempts are rate-limited
- Download permissions stay separate from viewing
- Delivery pages can’t be embedded by other sites

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I password protect a video?
Upload the video to a project, open the delivery settings, enter a password and publish. Send the link and the password to your viewer — ideally in separate messages.
Do viewers need to create an account?
No. They only need the link and the password. The page works in any modern browser on desktop and mobile.
Can I change the password later?
Yes. Update it in the delivery settings at any time; the old password stops working immediately.
Can I combine a password with an expiry date?
Yes, and it is recommended for time-sensitive work. After the expiry date the page closes even for people who know the password.
Is password protection available on every plan?
Yes. Passwords, expiry dates and revocation are included on every plan and in the free trial. See pricing.
Is there an alternative to a shared password?
Yes. On Pro and Studio, use email access: each viewer enters their email and a one-time code, you can limit access to a list of addresses, and analytics show who watched.
