Best IPTV in Japan. From $15 a month.

Toronto’s Best IPTV is an IPTV provider serving households in Japan and more than thirty other countries across all seven continents. One subscription gives you live channels, an EPG guide, catch-up on supported channels and an on-demand library of films and series — all over the internet connection you already pay for. There is no dish, no cable box, no installer appointment and no fixed-term contract.

Viewers in Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Fukuoka and everywhere else in Japan use the same setup: install an app on the device you own, sign in with the details we send you, and start watching. Fibre is near-universal in Japan, so 4K streams and catch-up work comfortably.

Channel and on-demand availability varies by package, source, device and location. Message us to confirm the content you want before you buy.

• Wired Ethernet or 5GHz Wi-Fi for live sport
• No VPN required for normal viewing; some customers use one for general privacy
• If a channel is unstable we can move your line to a different server node
