Configuration Differences

|---|---|---|
Display Method | Embed code on webpage | Full-screen URL in browser |
Source Refresh Rate | 15min-24h (plan-based) | 5 minutes |
View Limits | 2k-unlimited (plan-based) | Unlimited |

Can You Use Both?
Yes! You can create separate feeds for your website and events, or use the same feed in both contexts. However, Event plan features (5min refresh, etc.) only work when using the Event plan.
If you're running a hybrid setup (website + event), create two separate feeds so you can optimize each for its specific use case and maintain different moderation settings.
Choosing the Right Type
Choose Website Feed if:
Embedding on your company website or marketing pages
Users will interact with posts (clicking, viewing details)
You need responsive layout that fits page design
15-60 minute refresh is sufficient
Choose Event Feed if:
Displaying on TV screens or digital signage
Source must update every 5 minutes for live events
You need full-screen, non-interactive display
High visibility and readability from a distance
