Tivistation (also written TiviStation or TiVistation) is a name used by several websites that sell IPTV subscriptions. It's easy to confuse with TiviMate, a well-known IPTV player app, but they're different things: TiviMate plays a service you add, while Tivistation is a name used by subscription sellers. Sites using the name often make strong marketing claims, from "#1 rated" to "99.99% uptime". This guide explains the name confusion and how to evaluate those claims.
XCodes IPTV has no connection with any website using the Tivistation name, and we make no claims about their services.
Quick answer
Tivistation is an IPTV subscription name used on multiple domains, not the TiviMate player. Treat superlatives and statistics on any Tivistation site as claims to test: identify the exact domain, ask how figures were measured, request a trial and test on your devices at peak times.

Reading common claims
| Claim | What to ask | How to test |
|---|---|---|
| "#1 rated" | Rated by whom, using what method? | Ignore unless the source is independent |
| "99.99% uptime" | Measured how and over what period? | Watch at peak times during a trial |
| "Tens of thousands of channels" | Which channels do I need? | Check your own list |
| "Quick activation" | How long, exactly? | Note the time during your trial |
| "AntiFreeze technology" | What does it do technically? | Watch live sport and note buffering |
Why "#1 rated" means little
Ratings without a named, independent source and a published method can't be verified. See how IPTV ratings are produced.
Why uptime figures need context
Uptime describes whether servers respond, not whether every channel plays smoothly on your connection at 8pm on a Saturday. Your own peak-time test is more relevant.
Several sites, one name
Sites using the Tivistation name use different domains and present different figures, so a review or complaint about one may not apply to another. Always note the exact domain you're considering.
Checking a Tivistation site
- Note the exact domain.
- Check business details, terms, refund and privacy policies.
- Ask support a specific question.
- Request a trial and test your channels at peak times.
- Check which player or app you'll use, and that it comes from an official store.
- Prefer payment methods with buyer protection.
- Start with a short plan.
Content categories
Some sites using the name advertise adult channel counts alongside general content. If you have children at home, check whether adult categories can be locked with a PIN in your player and set that up before anyone else uses the device.
Warning signs
- Unsourced superlatives and statistics.
- Inconsistent details across pages.
- No refund policy.
- Pressure to buy long plans.
These are reasons for caution, not proof of wrongdoing.
Legal comfort
IPTV technology is legal; what matters is whether a service holds rights to its content. See is IPTV legal?.
Comparing services fairly
Apply the same tests to every option. XCodes IPTV doesn't publish ratings or uptime figures; instead we offer a free 24-hour trial on request so you can test for yourself, with published pricing.
Questions to send before paying
- Which exact website and contact details are official?
- Who produced the "#1 rated" claim, and how?
- How is uptime measured, and over what period?
- Which player app should I use on my device, and where do I get it?
- How many connections are included, and is there a trial?
- What are the refund terms?
Clear, specific answers are a good sign. Vague replies, or answers that repeat the marketing, are worth noting.
Keep your account safe
Don't share login details or playlist links publicly, install players only from official stores and ask for a reset if you think your details have been exposed.
Conclusion
Tivistation is an IPTV subscription name used on several websites, not the TiviMate player. Treat "#1 rated", uptime percentages and channel counts as claims to test, identify the exact site, and rely on your own trial.
