Video Rental
What does it cost?
Some videos are free and some are pay-per-view (PPV) and can be rented or purchased individually. If you are a paying member, you have unlimited viewing of PPV videos. Prices and rental periods are set by the video publisher and listed under the video.
How do I rent or purchase a video?
Browse to the page for the title you want to watch and hit the play button at the center of the video player. After a short preview/trailer, you will be prompted with purchase options. Choose the option that fits your needs and you will be directed to a payment screen. Once payment is complete you will be redirected back to the video and you can begin watching immediately.
Can I watch my rental more than once?
Absolutely. You can watch a video as many times as you want during the rental period. After you check out a passcode is emailed to you. During your rental period you can return to SWAYLOCKS as many times as you like and play the title using your rental passcode.
Can I watch my rental/purchase on more than one device?
Yes, however playback is only allowed on once device at a time and you'll need to enter the passcode we email to you on each new device.
Can I share my rental/purchase code?
Please don't. Videos can only be viewed on one device at a time, and new devices will require two factor authentication to enable.
I didn't receive a passcode, what should I do?
