What is Thunder Player and why is it different?
Thunder Player is a Roku-only IPTV channel with a Netflix-style interface: dynamic hero that changes with the focused poster, HD TMDB posters, per-movie detail page, episodes with thumbnails and automatic resume. It is submitted through the official Roku Channel Store process under your brand, so your customer searches for it by name and installs it with one click — no private codes, no developer mode.
How does the end customer log in?
Two ways: (1) 6-character activation code — the customer opens the app for the first time, sees the code on screen and shares it with you. In your admin panel the code shows up automatically; you identify it, click "Activate", configure the customer account (username and password) and their Roku enters by itself. (2) Manual username and password using the on-screen keyboard. Additionally, inside the app they can add linked accounts to keep multiple IPTV lists on the same Roku without losing the first.
What does the admin panel include?
Full device management (suspend, reactivate, force logout, delete and restore), 6-character activation codes that arrive automatically in the panel when the customer opens the app, credential and expiration date editing with Roku auto-relogin, multiple linked accounts per device, channel branding (logo, login logo and background), multiple IPTV servers with automatic testing, dashboard with active / suspended / deleted device counts.
How much does it cost and what is included?
USD 300 one-time payment. Includes: branded Thunder Player build (logo, login logo and background), submission to the official Roku Channel Store process, full admin panel on your domain, TMDB and EPG integration, initial server setup, support during the official review.
On how many Rokus can my customer use the same account?
On as many Rokus as they want. Favorites sync automatically and "Continue watching" works across devices: start a movie on one TV and finish it on another. No extra setup needed.
What happens if a customer stops paying?
You suspend them from the panel and the app closes itself in less than 5 minutes — no need to talk to the customer. If they pay again, you reactivate them with one click and they keep their lists, favorites and progress.
Does it appear in the official Roku Channel Store?
Yes. We submit through the official Roku review process under your brand. Once approved, it is published in the Channel Store and your customers install it like any other official app — by searching for your name.
How long does it take?
Branded build: 72 business hours. Official Roku review: an additional 5–10 business days (managed by Roku, not us). If Roku requests adjustments, we do them and resubmit in 1–2 days.
