FAQs

What is NepTime?

NepTime is a free video site at neptime.io. You can watch videos, upload your own, import a video that is already online, post a Short, or go live.

Does it cost money to use NepTime?

Watching, uploading, and going live do not require a paid plan. NepTime Pro is optional. It is $9.99 for one month and raises the upload limit, among other extras. The Go Pro page is where you start that plan.

Who can use NepTime?

NepTime is for people who are 18 or older. If you are under 18, you cannot use the site. The privacy policy says the same thing in another way: do not use NepTime if you are below the age in the terms.

How do I create an account?

Choose Register, enter your name, email, and password, and accept the terms and the privacy policy. Confirm the email NepTime sends you. Until that confirmation is done, the account stays limited.

I forgot my password. What should I do?

Use Forgot your password on the login page. The reset goes to the email on the account. Check spam if it does not arrive. Support cannot read or tell you the current password.

How do I contact NepTime?

Use the contact form on the Contact Us page, email [email protected], or open the Version 6 support center at https://support.version-6.com/. The support center also covers NepTime questions that are not answered on this page.

Where are the terms and the privacy policy?

Both are linked in the footer. The terms are at https://neptime.io/terms/terms. The privacy policy is at https://neptime.io/terms/privacy-policy.

How do I upload a video?

Click Upload. Add the file, then the title, description, and thumbnail. Choose a category and tags. Last, choose who can see it: public, private, unlisted, or scheduled. The video stays private until you publish it or the scheduled time arrives.

How large can an upload be?

A free account can upload a file up to 1 GB (1,000,000,000 bytes). NepTime Pro can upload a file up to 10 GB (10,000,000,000 bytes). NepTime is not a backup service. Keep your own copy of every file.

Which video files can I upload?

The uploader accepts MP4, MOV, WebM, and MPEG. If a file is rejected, export it as one of those and try again.

Can I choose the thumbnail, category, and tags?

Yes. During upload you can add your own thumbnail, pick a category, and add tags. Those are what people see when they browse.

Who can watch a video I upload?

On the visibility step you can make a video public, private, unlisted, or scheduled. In Privacy Settings you can also set a default for who can watch your videos: everyone, subscribers, or only you. Changing that default resets the privacy of your existing videos to the option you pick.

Can I publish a video later?

Yes. Choose Scheduled and set the date and time. The time is UTC. The video stays private until that time.

Can I block a video in some places?

Yes. While you are adding the video details, geo-blocking lets you keep the video out of selected regions.

Can I stop other sites from embedding my video?

Yes. In the video details, you can turn embedding off so other sites cannot play that video in an embed.

What is a Short?

A Short is a short video, up to 60 seconds. Open Shorts from the header to watch them, or post one from the Shorts upload.

Can I import a video instead of uploading a file?

Yes. Import is in the header. Use it when the video is already online. TikTok import, and embedding a video that is hosted on another site, are part of NepTime Pro. The Import page shows which sources your account can use.

How do I go live?

Open https://neptime.io/live while you are signed in, check the preview, and click Go Live. Anyone can start a live video. A live stream does not sell a Version 6 product by itself.

How do I stream from OBS?

In OBS Studio, click Start Virtual Camera. In Google Chrome, open chrome://settings/content/camera and set the camera to OBS Virtual Camera. Then open https://neptime.io/live. The preview should match what OBS is showing. Click Go Live on NepTime when you are ready.

What is NepTime Pro, and what does it cost?

NepTime Pro is an optional plan. The current price is $9.99 for one month. Open Go Pro from your account menu to subscribe. You can use NepTime without it.

What does Pro add?

Pro raises the upload limit from 1 GB to 10 GB. It also includes a verified badge, featured videos, TikTok import, and the ability to embed a video that is hosted on another site. The Go Pro page is the list to check before you pay, because that page is what checkout uses.

How do I turn on monetization?

Open Monetization in your account settings. If that page asks for a personal photo and a photo ID, submit the request and wait for a decision. After monetization is available on the account, turn it on for the channel, then turn it on for each video you want included. NepTime does not promise that every upload will be approved.

How much will a video earn?

NepTime does not publish one earnings rate for every video. A funded pre-roll pays that campaign's own rate for a qualified view. Other ads can pay a different rate. A number shown on a video is not a promise of what the next video will earn, and it is not a cash balance until it appears in your earnings.

Why does a video show IMT Earned?

Some videos show a label that says IMT Earned. That label is not a published payout rate, and it does not mean Immute tokens were issued on Ethereum mainnet. Immute (IMT) is a separate Version 6 testnet project at immute.io. NepTime cannot send IMT donations from account settings right now.

Can viewers donate?

Yes, with PayPal. In General Settings, add the PayPal email that should receive donations. IMT donations are not turned on.

How do points work?

Points are a separate balance from ad earnings. A comment is 5 points, a like is 3, a dislike is 2, a watch is 1, and an upload is 10. A free account can earn up to 15 points in a day. Pro can earn up to 30 points in a day. One hundred points equal $1. You can ask to withdraw once the points are worth at least $10. NepTime reviews the activity before paying. Using the site in a way that breaks the terms in order to earn points can close the account.

Can I rent a video or sell stock footage?

The upload form can mark a video as stock footage and can set a rent price. If you do not want either, leave those fields alone. A rent price is what a viewer pays to watch that video. It is not the same thing as NepTime Pro.

How do I report copyright infringement?

On the video, open Report, then Report Copyright. Fill in the form and submit it. NepTime reviews the report and removes a video that infringes someone else's copyright. Only report a video you are allowed to speak for. Uploading something you do not have the rights to can remove the video and the account.

What videos are not allowed?

The terms ban illegal content, child sexual abuse material, dangerous or illegal acts, and sexually explicit content. They also ban videos that infringe someone else's rights. The full list is in the terms of use. Breaking the terms can remove the video, disable the account, or block the embed player.

Who owns a video I upload?

You keep ownership of your video. You give NepTime permission to host, play, distribute, and modify it as needed to run the service while it is on NepTime. You are responsible for having the rights to anything you upload.

Does NepTime keep a backup of my videos?

No. NepTime is not a backup service. If a video is removed, or if you delete it, do not count on NepTime still having the file. Keep your own copy.

How do I edit my profile, password, or privacy?

Account settings has the tabs. General Settings covers the username, email, and donation PayPal address. Profile Settings covers your name, about text, website, and social links. Password is on its own tab. Privacy Settings covers who can watch your videos, who can message you, and whether your subscriber count is public. The account menu can also switch between accounts you have added on this browser.

Does NepTime have two-factor authentication?

Yes. Open the Two-Factor Authentication tab in account settings and turn it on. You will need that second step the next time you sign in.

How do I delete my account?

Account deletion is in your account settings. Deleting the account is also how you ask NepTime to erase the personal data tied to it. If you cannot get into the account, email [email protected] from the address on the account and include the username.

What information does NepTime collect?

NepTime collects the details you submit, such as your name and email, the videos and messages you post, and usage data such as IP address, browser, pages you open, and cookie identifiers. The privacy policy is the full list, including how to ask for a correction.

Does NepTime use cookies?

Yes. Cookies and similar storage are used to keep you signed in, remember preferences such as language, and measure how the site is used, including advertising. You can block some of them in the browser. Blocking them can break sign-in or playback. The privacy policy describes this in more detail.

Is there an API?

Yes. The API base is https://neptime.io/api.php. A support article explains how registration works: https://support.version-6.com/. Support will not create an account for you by calling that API. Register on the site, or send the request yourself if you are building an app.
