Samsung (Tizen TV)

No account needed!

Good news! If you purchased a Samsung Tizen app you do not need to create an account on your own! Due to the relationship that Vimeo has built with Samsung we are able to create your application within a group account that is manged by Vimeo directly.

Is the app still white labelled if its in Vimeo's group account? 

Yes! Unlike other platforms Samsung does not show the developer name based on the account that the app is hosted in. Your app will remain entirely white labelled while it is in Vimeo's account.

What if I leave Vimeo? Will I be able to transfer my app elsewhere?

Yes! If in the future you want to transfer your app out of the Vimeo OTT group account you will just need to create a Samsung Developer account and Vimeo will initiate the transfer on your behalf. You can create a Samsung Developer account by following these steps:
