FAQ
Does BandSports work abroad with a VPN?
Yes. The player validates the IP region at load time, so connecting through a Brazilian exit before opening the stream is what makes it work.
Is the speed enough for streaming from UK?
London to São Paulo typically measures 180–210 ms. Live HD streams work well; use ethernet on match nights if your Wi-Fi is congested.
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No. The 24 hours trial requires only a verified account — subscribe later if it works for you.
Is my connection private?
WireGuard encrypts all traffic between your device and the Brazilian exit with modern cryptography (ChaCha20-Poly1305). Your local network and ISP see only encrypted packets.
