🇸🇪 Flickhaven — IPTV Sweden

Best IPTV Sweden 2026 — Our 8 Brands Compared

Pricing, channel coverage, on-demand libraries and device support, assessed for Swedish viewers in Sweden.

Last updated

None of the eight IPTV services compared here is a domestic Swedish provider: they are international services billed in pounds sterling rather than SEK, so coverage of SVT1, SVT2, SVT24 and other Swedish channels is not guaranteed by any headline count. All eight are operated by the group that publishes Flickhaven. A traditional package from Telia, Tele2/Comhem and Viaplay runs SEK 300–600/month. Each offers a 24-hour trial with no card, so verify the channels you actually watch before paying.

Ownership disclosure

All eight services compared on this page are owned and operated by the same group that publishes Flickhaven. This is a first-party comparison of our own brands — not an independent review, and not a survey of the wider Swedish market. Pricing is unified in pounds sterling across all eight; channel and library figures come from each brand's published site. For a genuinely independent view, seek out reviewers with no commercial relationship to these services.

Read this before you compare

You will pay a currency conversion from SEK to pounds sterling on a Swedish card. If your viewing is mostly Swedish terrestrial television, a domestic operator (Telia, Tele2/Comhem and Viaplay) will serve you better than anything on this page.

A traditional Swedish pay-TV package from Telia, Tele2/Comhem and Viaplay runs SEK 300–600/month, usually on a fixed-term contract. The eight services here replace that with one prepaid IPTV subscription and an app on hardware you already own. New to IPTV?

The eight services compared

Ordered by fit for a Swedish viewer. All eight are operated by the publisher — see the disclosure above.

1

Vivimate IPTV

£15.00/mo · 55,000+ channels · 130,000+ VOD · International (GBP)

The widest international spread of the eight, so the best chance of carrying SVT and TV4. Nordic channels are a common gap — verify them first.

2

IG IPTV

£15.00/mo · 55,000+ channels · 160,000+ VOD · United Kingdom (GBP)

160,000 on-demand titles, the largest here, which matters where Viaplay holds much of the domestic sport behind its own app.

3

Apollo Group TV

£15.00/mo · 55,000+ channels · 160,000+ VOD · Canadian lineup (GBP)

Canadian-focused — but its NHL coverage genuinely appeals in Sweden, given how many Swedish players feature and how closely the league is followed.

5

TiviMate IPTV

£15.00/mo · 55,000+ channels · 130,000+ VOD · International (GBP)

Only if TiviMate is your player. Swedish households lean towards operator boxes from Telia and Tele2.

TiviMate IPTV is a subscription brand run by our group. It is not the TiviMate player app and is not affiliated with that app's developer.

All eight publish 55,000+ live channels and a free 24-hour trial, and bill in pounds sterling on the same plan ladder. The side-by-side table, full feature lists, pros and cons are published once on the brand portfolio behind these Sweden picks rather than repeated on every country guide.

Swedish channels to check for

A headline channel count says nothing about these — verify each Swedish channel you watch by name during the free trial:

Public (SVT)

SVT1, SVT2, SVT24, Kunskapskanalen, SVT Barn

Commercial

TV4, Kanal 5, TV3, TV6, TV8, Sjuan

Sport

Viaplay sport channels, TV4 Sport, C More

Nordic

Norwegian and Danish feeds are widely carried

Sport in Sweden

The fixtures that matter to Swedish subscribers are Allsvenskan football and SHL ice hockey, which draws the larger domestic audience. Viaplay and TV4 hold most Allsvenskan and SHL rights. Rights change between seasons, so check the competition you follow during the trial, at the time it actually airs.

IPTV vs Swedish pay-TV

Licence feeSame position as with pay-TVReplaced by a public-service tax
Licensing certaintyVerify per providerHolds rights to its channels

The rows where a domestic operator wins outright are licensing certainty and guaranteed Swedish channel coverage. Neither is a small advantage, and both are worth weighing against the price difference.

Legality and licence fees in Sweden

IPTV as a technology is legal; what determines legality is licensing — whether a given provider holds distribution rights for the channels it carries. Verify that before subscribing: responsibility for compliance in Sweden rests with you as the subscriber.

Licence fee: Replaced by a public-service tax

Sweden abolished its television licence in 2019 and replaced it with the public service-avgift, collected through income tax and capped per person per year. It is not tied to owning a television, so switching to IPTV makes no difference to it.

Rates and rules change — confirm your own position with the relevant Swedish authority.

How to test before you pay

Request the 24-hour trial on WhatsApp — no card is needed on any of the eight — then open SVT1, SVT2, SVT24 and the other Swedish channels you watch by name during the evening peak, and time how long support takes to answer a question. The full method is in our guide on testing an IPTV service on Swedish channels before you pay.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best IPTV service in Sweden?

Vivimate IPTV leads this comparison for Swedish viewers — the widest international spread, the deciding factor where no brand leads with Swedish channels. IG IPTV is the main alternative, offering 160,000+ on-demand titles. Both include a 24-hour trial with no credit card, which is the only reliable way to judge peak-hour performance on your own connection.

Are all eight of these services related?

Yes. All eight brands compared here are operated by the same group that publishes this site, so this is a first-party comparison rather than an independent review. They share infrastructure, one support desk and one price ladder billed in pounds sterling, and differ mainly in regional channel lineup, on-demand library size and player focus.

Do these services carry Swedish channels?

None of the eight is a domestic Swedish provider. Some Swedish channels appear in their international lineups, but coverage is not guaranteed. Check SVT1, SVT2, SVT24 and the other channels you watch by name during the 24-hour trial before paying.

Which broadcasters hold the sports rights in Sweden?

Viaplay and TV4 hold most Allsvenskan and SHL rights. The fixtures that matter most to Swedish subscribers are Allsvenskan football and SHL ice hockey, which draws the larger domestic audience. Rights change between seasons, so check the specific competition you follow during the trial, at the time it actually airs.

Will I be billed in SEK?

No. All eight bill in pounds sterling (GBP), not SEK, so a Swedish card pays a currency conversion on the terms your card issuer sets. Local pay-TV from Telia, Tele2/Comhem and Viaplay is billed in SEK at SEK 300–600/month.

Is IPTV legal in Sweden?

IPTV as a technology is legal. Legality turns on whether a given provider holds distribution rights for the channels it carries, not on the technology or the player app. Verify the licensing position of any service before subscribing; responsibility for compliance in Sweden rests with you as the subscriber.

Do I still need a TV licence in Sweden?

Replaced by a public-service tax. Sweden abolished its television licence in 2019 and replaced it with the public service-avgift, collected through income tax and capped per person per year. It is not tied to owning a television, so switching to IPTV makes no difference to it.

How much does IPTV cost compared to Swedish pay-TV?

The services here run from £15.00/mo, or £3.93/mo effective on the 12-month plan, two bonus months included. A traditional Swedish pay-TV package from Telia, Tele2/Comhem and Viaplay typically costs SEK 300–600/month, usually on a fixed-term contract.

The bottom line

For a viewer in Sweden, Vivimate IPTV is the pick from this group — the widest international spread, the deciding factor where no brand leads with Swedish channels.

None of the eight is a Swedish service, so Swedish channel coverage is something to verify rather than assume.

Whichever you choose, use the 24-hour trial before paying: peak hours, your own connection, the channels you actually watch.
