Checkpoints
Make the video ask for something
A checkpoint pauses playback at a timestamp you choose — collect an email, take a payment, quiz the viewer, or show a form before the video continues.
The five checkpoint types
- Email gate — viewer enters an email to continue. The classic lead magnet: tease the first minute free, gate the rest.
- Stripe payment — playback continues after checkout. Sell a course video, a tutorial, a recorded workshop — no separate storefront.
- Quiz — a multiple-choice question; optionally require the right answer. Training and compliance content that proves attention.
- Form — multi-field form sent to your email or a webhook mid-video, while context is hot.
- CTA — a button at the moment of peak relevance, not buried below the player.

Choose the type and configure

Decide if it's skippable
Require it, or allow skipping after N seconds. Required checkpoints block scrubbing past them.
