In simple terms, Iflix lacks new Western content at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Netflix is trying to improve its service continuously; in the same manner, Iflix is also trying to improve its service by providing excellent service to customers. It is opting for new strategies and business models, helping them to enhance their customer base and profit to a great extent in a shorter time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-x-large-font-size\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Iflix_Makes_Money\"><\/span>How Iflix Makes Money?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Now you know how Iflix works, it&#8217;s time to find out how it makes money. Recently, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mumbrella.asia\/2018\/04\/Iflix-pivots-towards-ad-supported-model-as-ceo-admits-original-business-was-superficial\">CEO responded<\/a> that Iflix\u2019s business model was superficial. He also added that they must move towards advertising to make more revenue. Well, this is one of the lessons learned that Western models do not fit the rest of the world!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">While writing about the same, they stated that the free tier model is a perfect match for most businesses compared to the premium content model. Learn to know how Iflix makes money by considering opting for a new business model to cater to all the needs of its customers in the most effective way to ensure their satisfaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-x-large-font-size\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Iflix%E2%80%99s_Recent_Strategy_Learn_to_Know_How_Iflix_Works_Makes_Money\"><\/span>Iflix&#8217;s Recent Strategy: Learn to Know How Iflix Works &amp; Makes Money<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">B2B partnerships have gained huge popularity among businesses worldwide, and Iflix is not an exceptional case in adoption. The business giant has made partnerships with telcos to introduce and implement the subscriber base quickly. Now you might be thinking about how much the subscriber base has grown since then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The Iflix CEO concluded that their business model doesn&#8217;t compete with an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alphansotech.com\/netflix-clone\">app like Netflix<\/a> and further added that they are just focusing on replacing the DVD market in emerging markets and trying to build their presence over smartphones. Seriously, what a peculiar strategy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">However, it also raised another question: what percentage of the internet streaming population really aims to stream local content? For instance, if we go to Netflix Indonesia, then it is quite similar to Netflix Sri Lanka, but when you explore Iflix Indonesia and Iflix Sri Lanka, then you will find that both are different because they are local. Iflix Indonesia possesses more than 50% of Indonesian content, whereas Iflix Sri Lanka has quite a large percentage of regional and local content, while Netflix is predominantly and offers English content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-x-large-font-size\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pricing_Model_of_Iflix\"><\/span>Pricing Model of Iflix<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Iflix provides free content and also \u201cVIP\u201d content. When any of the people want to leverage Iflix VIP content, then they are requested to pay a monthly subscription fee (RM10\/mo) or have to pay yearly (RM8\/mo), and they also have to pay through phone bills and credit cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Iflix keeps changing its price according to the promotions, its subscription was around RM5\/mo at one point or RM30 for 12 months. Their marketing team is very aggressive and has the flexibility to offer huge discounts, they even offer free access for a few months for newbies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">While Iflix claims to have more than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaltveurope.com\/2018\/07\/16\/Iflix-passes-15-million-subscribers\/\">15 million subscribers<\/a>, there are certain changes that people might not subscribe to the channels at all. Thus are known to subscribe to customers on their behalf via their mobile carrier accounts, where Iflix gives out free accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Iflix had five million registered users during. It instead hailed \u201ctremendous growth\u201d that includes around a 3X increase in subscriber numbers, whereas a 2X rise in user engagement during the past years. Its revenue is expected to jump and reach around 230% year-on-year, but it is keeping quiet on raw figures. Having a 3X increase in subscribers and more than 2.3X revenue growth basically shows that there are very few customers who own a free account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-x-large-font-size\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Popularity_Indicators_and_Revenue_Model_of_Iflix\"><\/span>Popularity Indicators and Revenue Model of Iflix<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/mHqp18YtPpahrhhs9tQtijr8r-TIuMsdtBRaQ6FlXfFXkIDNDNZyK19flDkuDE8pQGLxMik9scjdOmF3u36k8qPnOtbGSc2ejoc7nBcSpS-NMHCzpYsmffJxrbXgEecvpxE4iFC6VCmKWa8YYXUmiDI\" alt=\"Iflix Vs Viu Popularity\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/yJRTNe8JjEJqAJZ5Wc1rdkjkrD4BIozWx7asXVinEfz-YNPLjsVHYDfjQp5lGNAAmw4V6RloYA_MtbamkPLopR2mitRafzzHqKhkQBySexUZZGdQUkdxSHJ-EB9f3iVryQCCJ52KuNvFX15rwOgyTsI\" alt=\"Interest Over Time\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Images: (<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.crunchbase.com\/organization\/Iflix#section-recent-news-activity\"><strong>Source<\/strong><\/a><strong>)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">If only <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crunchbase.com\/organization\/Iflix#section-recent-news-activity\">30% of the 5 million subscribers<\/a> pay for their services, revenues are estimated to reach around RM15 million a year at full price. While it is expected to double to 10 million subscribers at full price. It&#8217;s expected that the platform will make around RM100 million. At the time, they were at RM15 to 100 million in revenues, which is not great for companies that raised around $300 million, but as they have a longer-term picture to deal with, time will tell us everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/KUoFNZijzxkxrzTe0QhXF6W09Ib6I7iWntdzgPqsH8UyXJ2zPLTWQGLw4l0tD0G7TZ0isLOK42FelE1NGkWzLJtQqMsJSunRM00_7m3lj2luHQDBIddNlf8mwN2_JyrCA6coiPeueHil4fakvfIEXXE\" alt=\"Comparison breakdown by subregion \" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Alongside pre-roll ads, the video streaming platform also offers product placement options, which are for local as well as regional content, plus in-app ads. Moreover, Iflix now wants to diversify its risk of small revenues by running multiple types of ads. Let\u2019s explore some clear calculations to understand this and also to know if Iflix is making money and how much they are earning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>The revenue of YouTube is $1 to $6 per 1,000 views.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It is assumed that people watch Iflix ads 365 times a year, which is estimated to make around 3.65 trillion impressions for 10 million subscribers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>This works impressively out to about $11m or RM44m in revenues.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-x-large-font-size\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Check_the_Iflix_Valuation_to_Know_How_Much_it_Earns\"><\/span>Check the Iflix Valuation to Know How Much it Earns<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Previous investment of Iflix was valued at around $90m at $500M, while it experienced an increase of $133m. It was found that around 33% of its equity was given away to match the $400m valuation, hence, it was estimated to reach around 16%, which would be very favorable to them at $800m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-x-large-font-size\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Launch_Your_App_Like_Iflix_Today\"><\/span>Launch Your App Like Iflix Today!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Netflix is setting records \u2014 over <strong>$20.54 billion<\/strong> in revenue, and a staggering <strong>$6 billion spent<\/strong> on original content this year alone. But it&#8217;s also facing a <strong>$2.5 billion cash outflow<\/strong> and expects to stay free-cash-flow negative for years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">That\u2019s where regional disruptors like <strong>Iflix<\/strong> come in \u2014 leaner, smarter, and laser-focused on emerging markets with agile business models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Want to build the next Iflix?
