WatchMojo.com > Corporate Section > Video Content Licensing FAQ

1) I want to add WatchMojo videos to my site, is that possible?

Yes, WatchMojo licenses its catalog to other websites. Everything on the site excluding content in the WatchMojo TV section can be licensed.

2) Can I obtain a commercial license to run ads?

Yes, our Standard Commercial License allows you to serve ads against the content on your site. You cannot, however, redistribute the videos to third-party organizations and charge them a fee. Our Premium Commercial License allows you to redistribute the videos to third-party websites in your player.

3) How can I access the videos?

There are multiple ways. Once you sign the licensing agreement, you can provide us with an IP address from where you will download the videos. At that point, you can ingest the videos via XML feed through our MRSS feed. Alternatively, for lower volume licenses, you can also sign up to our Download service and download videos in various resolutions directly from the site.

4) Do I get access to High Definition videos?

You get access to the largest resolution we have, so if we shot a video in HD (1080), you can download it in HD. But if we produced a video using SD footage then the finished video will be in SD (480, 720).

5) How much metadata do I get?

Everything that we have available. Our metadata includes: title, description, keywords, tags, category, sub-category as well as two images: one small (100 width) and one large (480 width).

6) Can I serve the videos in my own player?

Yes, if you prefer to ingest the videos in your own video player, you may.

7) Does WatchMojo provide a video player and/or hosting?

Yes, if you need more than just the content, we can provide you with a video player and hosting too. The player comes at no extra charge, the hosting can be a variable pricing based on usage above and beyond a certain amount of impressions.

8) Does WatchMojo have global rights for all platforms?

Yes, we own the content on the site (excluding the WatchMojo.com/tv/ content which we license but do not redistribute) in all territories and all platforms (Web, out-of-home, mobile, television, etc).

9) Do I need to license the whole catalog?

You may license the whole catalog, some categories, or various videos across multiple categories. Depending on your license, you can access our entire back catalog as well as all new videos we produce during the Term of the license. READ MORE INFO HERE

10) What is the contract length?

It is flexible, most agreements are annual, but we can also do 3-month, 6-month or 24-month agreements.

11) Can I get the videos without the WatchMojo branding?

No, our videos are licensed "as is", meaning with the WatchMojo bumpers and watermark. However, in exchange you get access to the Videos you licensed for unlimited use.

12) How large is the WatchMojo catalog?

For the size of each category and overall catalog, visit our content catalog stats page which breaks down our catalog by Categories and Sub-Categories. You can also see the range of our programming in our "Themes" page which cuts across our Categories and Sub-Categories.

13) Do I get to know what videos are going to be published in the future?

Yes, we provide licensing partners with a 2-week and more long-term outlook into our upcoming calendar.

14) Can we edit the videos?

No. However, you may edit the videos for length provided you obtain permission, submit the edited videos for length; WatchMojo retains all ownership over the edited videos.

15) What language are your videos in?

Mainly North American English. We also have hundreds of French videos with Parisian, French Canadian and Neutral accents. We have done pilots for videos in Spanish (both Castilian Spanish and South American accents), German, Mandarin and can easily create original videos in all languages, or dub, or add sub-titles for specific clients and partners.

16) Is there a cost?

Yes, we license our content for flat fees or hybrid arrangement. Email us for more information. You get the right to sell the inventory to your advertisers, however, and control the ad impressions in your player.

17) Do you have a revenue share program?

Yes, but that requires a minimum amount of guaranteed views. If you operate a large site and can guarantee a minimum amount of video plays, we would consider a revenue share arrangement. Email us with your site's traffic levels.
