Nettify Cast™ – Hotel Casting Solutions
Automatic device pairing. Instant screen casting. No QR codes. No user login credentials. Any TV supported. No IPTV or STB needed.
Nettify Cast is a revolutionary Bring-Your-Own-Content casting solution for hotels, powered by Google Chromecast®. It allows guests to connect their phones, tablets and laptops instantly and wirelessly to any kind of TV and enjoy their own content and subscriptions like Netflix via the hotel’s existing Wi-Fi.
Guests are usually unimpressed with hotels’ content offering, but they like the bigger screen of hotel TVs.
Vice versa, guests love their own content but are unhappy with their devices’ screen size.
Nettify Cast solves this!

FAQ – Your Questions Answered
Can guests see or connect to other guests' TVs?
No. We have developed all our Nettify Cast solutions specifically for hotels and the hospitality industry and guarantee 100% guest privacy protection, including data about watched content.
Do we need a smart TV?
No! Not only are smart TVs not needed, but they are not recommended. Smart TVs, including hospitality smart TVs, have apps like Netflix installed on them, and guests must log in to each and every app they wish to use first. That exposes their credentials because smart TVs lack any user account management.
If a guest forgets to log out, the next guest can use their Netflix or YouTube account, which creates substantial operational issues and guest dissatisfaction. It also makes the hotel GDPR or CCPA non-compliant.
Save your investment; Nettify Cast will make your TVs smart, regardless of their type, model, or brand.
Do guests have to log in and out of their apps when using Nettify Cast?
No. For screen casting, guests use their phones where they are permanently logged in to all their apps. Therefore, no login credentials are required, sent or stored in our system, offering total privacy protection. Additionally, no special app is needed to use our advanced screen casting for hotels.
Can screen casting solution replace hotel IPTV?
Absolutely! Not only it can, but it will. Hospitality IPTV is already an outdated concept whose cost, network and energy inefficiencies will seal its fate. Many hotels still have IPTV systems as a standard, but that is changing fast. International hotel chains are working on guest casting as the new in-room entertainment streaming standard while casting solutions for hotels further evolve.
Nettify Cast is already a great alternative to hospitality IPTV systems. Contact us for details.
Can your casting solution for hotels be added to our IPTV?
Yes! If your hotel IPTV lacks casting or your IPTV provider asks for the casting feature too much, you can absolutely use our screen casting for hotels instead. Contact us for a quote.
Will we need to upgrade our access points or switches?
No. Nettify Cast is a fully hardware-independent solution requiring no special hardware features. It works well with high-end as well as budget networking equipment. We will only make sure all guest rooms have sufficient Wi-Fi coverage and help you to improve it wherever the signal is weak.
What's the difference between casting and mirroring?
In short, mirroring shows the entire phone, tablet or laptop screen on the TV, with all the drawbacks such an approach brings — the inability to use the device while watching a movie, disruptions from incoming calls, messages and notifications, and loss of privacy. On the other hand, mirroring allows users to watch content from apps that do not support casting or use the in-room TV as a large monitor.
Casting, on the contrary, removes all the above disadvantages by only displaying the content guests want to be shown while allowing them to continue using their devices without any disruptions to the watched content.
And now the best part — Nettify Cast supports both — screen casting and mirroring. 🙂
