Nettify Cast™ – Hotel Casting Solution
Automatic device pairing. Instant screen casting for hotels. No QR codes. No user login credentials. Any TV supported. No IPTV or STB needed.
Nettify Cast is an innovative Bring-Your-Own-Content hotel casting solution with automatic device pairing, full privacy, and guest data protection. It allows guests to connect their phones, tablets, and laptops instantly and wirelessly to any type of TV, enabling them to enjoy their content and subscriptions via the hotel’s existing Wi-Fi.
Guests are usually unimpressed with hotels’ content offering, but they like the bigger screen of hotel TVs.

FAQ – Your Questions Answered
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 — our hotel casting solutions, Nettify Cast, support both — screen casting and mirroring. 🙂
Can guests see or connect to other guests' TVs?
No. We have developed all our in-room 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. Nettify Cast is compatible with any type, brand, or model of TV. Protect your investment; Nettify Cast will make your TVs smart.
What’s the best casting solution for hospitality?
The best casting solution for hotels should have the following features:
- Secure: Ensures guest privacy and security by preventing unauthorized access to another guest’s TV and by avoiding the storage of login credentials (even if later deleted).
- Universal: Supports all types of mobile devices and all major operating systems. It also works with any TV, so hotels do not waste money on unnecessary TV upgrades.
- User-Friendly: Makes the experience seamless with automatic device pairing, eliminating the need for QR codes or PIN codes.
- Enhancing the Guest Experience: The best casting solution for hospitality offers hotel-specific infotainment features, such as the ability to inform guests about hotel events and promotions.
- Energy-Efficient: Uses cost-effective and energy-saving hardware, avoiding expensive and power-hungry servers and streamers.
Simply put, the best casting solution for hotels brings maximum joy with minimum effort for both guests and hotels.
Do guests have to log in and out of their apps when using Nettify Cast?
No. For hotel 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 hospitality casting solutions.
Can your in-room casting solutions 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. Since Nettify Cast supports both wired and wireless connectivity, we will only ensure all guest rooms have either an Ethernet cable or sufficient Wi-Fi coverage and help you improve it wherever the signal is weak.
