When you join Recast, you’ll receive 25 Cast Credits for free.
Cast Credits is a unique in-platform payment system that allows you to watch content on Recast. All content on Recast is priced in Casts, and one Cast is equal to 1p. Top up Casts can either be purchased or earned in-platform by watching adverts, sharing videos or data, or by inviting friends to join.
You can check the number of Casts you have available at any time in your virtual Recast Wallet. If you do not have sufficient Casts in your wallet to cover the price of the piece of content you want to watch, you will need to purchase or earn more Cast Credits.
Cast Credits cannot be sold, transferred, traded or otherwise redeemed for monetary value. Cast Credits (whether purchased or earned) cannot be redeemed for cash, but if you have purchased Cast Credits from us, our Refund Policy applies. If you have a query about Cast Credits, please contact us at customerservices@recast.tv.
To get you started, we will credit your Recast Wallet with 25 Cast Credits. Casts are used to watch content on Recast.
If you fail to redeem some or all of these free Cast Credits within 14 days of joining, any such unused Cast Credits will expire.
You have complete control over your data on Recast. If you choose to complete your ‘Data Profile’ (name, date of birth, gender, postcode/zip code, country etc), you’ll receive 50 Cast Credits.
If you opt-in to share your anonymised personal data (age, gender, address) with our third party advertising partners, you’ll receive at least 50% more Cast Credits when you watch ads on our platform via “Watch & Earn”, as well as receiving more relevant adverts. Our advertising partners will never contact you directly and you can opt in, or out from sharing your anonymised personal data with our advertising partners at any time.
Share content from Recast and receive Cast Credits to your Recast Wallet when other users redeem Cast Credits to view the content shared using your specific link. Tap the ‘Share & Earn’ icon on any content you’ve watched to share a link to your friends via email, WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter or any other social sharing platform.
Every time someone redeems Cast Credits to watch content using your link, a percentage of the Cast Credits they redeem to watch it will go straight into your Recast Wallet.
The number of Cast Credits you’ll receive is based on the ‘share ratio’ set by the publisher that uploaded the content. You can check the ‘share ratio’ via the ‘Share & Earn’ icon before you share the link.
Unfortunately, if the person using your link has purchased a Channel Pass which allows them to view the content you’ve shared, you will not receive any Cast Credits through Share & Earn.
You can purchase Cast Credits at any time, via the ‘Buy Cast Credits’ icon in your Recast Wallet.
Cast Credits are normally sold by us for £0.01 and the minimum number of Casts that can be purchased is 200, which will cost £2.00. We will sometimes offer special deals which reward you with bonus Cast Credits when you purchase a certain amount of Cast Credits (for example, receive an extra 100 Cast Credits when you purchase 1000 Cast Credits). Where you purchase Cast Credits and take advantage of any such offer, any bonus Cast Credits awarded to you will be automatically credited to your Wallet. You can purchase Cast Credits using your credit or debit card, or using Apple Pay or Google Pay on your mobile device.
