# iOS TVOD Plan Set-Up (Monetization 2.0)

The first part of this workflow requires that you set up the **TVOD** plan in **ViewLift TOOLS** under Monetization/**Plans New.**

Remember that Purchase and Rental options are separate types of entitlement, and have their own unique identifiers, with purchase ending with a suffix of **_p** and rental ending with a suffix of **_r** in the ViewLift identifier:

To set this **TVOD** option up in iTunes Connect, go to [http://appstoreconnect.apple.com](http://appstoreconnect.apple.com) and log in with your credentials:

Once logged in, click on **My Apps**:

Next, choose the app for which you wish to add products/TVOD plans. Now you will see a master navigation on the left horizontal rail. Below General, you will see a top navigation piece called **In-App Purchases**. Click on **Manage**:

Click on the **Plus sign** to start creating a new plan:

This will bring up a dialog box. For TVOD you will choose the option for **Consumable**:

The **Product ID** needs to be derived from the **ViewLift Purchase Identifier **or **Rent Identifier**:

If you have created a plan in ViewLift that is available for BOTH rental and purchase, you will need to create two products in the Apple console. One will be for rental, and a separate one will be for purchase.

For the **Reference Name** field, we recommend that you use the ViewLift Plan Details Title Field entry We suggest you add a differentiator (we suggest **RENT** or **PURCHASE** as examples) in this field so that in the list view you can quickly and easily sort rental plans from purchase plans:

To set a price, choose a numerical value from the drop-down menu. Each price point has a Tier number. Please bear in mind that Apple requires that all prices end with 99-cents so you will need to use your best judgment to adjust your in-app purchase pricing to reflect close to what you designated for web. For example, if your TVOD on the web is $10.00 USD, your options are to make it either $9.99 USD (Tier 10) or $10.99 USD (Tier 11):

Once you set the price in the principal currency of your choice, by default it will auto-calculate a price for other currencies and territories based on exchange rates.

The App Store Information Section is customer-facing, and you will need to fill in the Display Name and Description fields. We suggest using the Reference Name, unless you want to editorialize it to something else:

**App Store Promotion** is optional, and you can skip this feature for now. For TVOD we suggest this is not an optimized feature.

Next is the **Review Information** section, which is for the Apple Review Team. They need to review this plan and approve it before it can be pushed live to the store. A screenshot needs to be included at this step, that will speed up the review process. You can re-use a placeholder screenshot, such as the ones I will share with you as examples (that we took in In TestFlight mode).

You can leave the Review Information text field blank:

Now scroll back up and click on **SAVE** in the upper right:
