Services · Ecommerce development · Video streaming membership sites
Codeeo provides video streaming membership website development in Dammam for training providers, universities, family entertainment brands, sports academies and media producers across the Eastern Province. We build the site where people join a plan, pay, and watch gated video on demand or live: tiers, checkout with mada and Apple Pay, company and student memberships, renewals, invoices and a member account. Dammam audiences are spread across three neighbouring cities and reach over the causeway into Bahrain, so the membership rules are drawn up for a region, not a single postcode.
Discovery for Dammam clients runs by video call. In those sessions we work out who pays for access, whether that is an individual, a parent or an employer, because in the Eastern Province the buyer and the viewer are often different people.

Inside the platform
The Eastern Province runs on shifts, campuses and family weekends. Engineers and technicians work rotations at plants in Jubail and across the region, students split their week between lectures in Dammam and Dhahran, and families drive between Dammam, Al Khobar and Bahrain. A paid video membership for this audience must cope with viewers who watch at odd hours, organisations that buy access for hundreds of people, and members who pay with a Bahraini card one month and a mada card the next. These are the capabilities Dammam projects most often need. We choose the first release with you during discovery, based on who your paying members are, and keep the remaining items on a written roadmap for later phases. Every item is built Arabic first with a right to left layout, with English alongside for the many expatriate professionals in the region.
Companies buy a block of seats, assign them to staff by work email or employee number, and move seats when people change roles. The employer's administrator sees who has activated access and what has been watched, and the invoice goes to the company with its VAT number.
One purchase order covers a whole department.
Live sessions can be repeated at several times or released as a replay within minutes, so a technician coming off a night rotation does not miss the content their membership pays for. Members choose reminder times that match their own schedule.
Members on rotations get full value from their plan.
Viewers in Bahrain can join with their own cards, see prices clearly, and watch titles you hold rights for in both countries. Rights rules hide anything licensed for Saudi Arabia only. Tax treatment for members billed outside the Kingdom is set with your accountant and reflected on each invoice.
Your regional audience can join without workarounds.
A student plan is offered only to people who confirm a university email address or upload proof of enrolment, with verification renewed each academic year. Universities can also buy access for whole cohorts, so students sign in with their campus email and pay nothing themselves.
Discounted access reaches students, not everyone who asks.
Individuals pay with mada, Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay or STC Bank through a SAMA licensed gateway, with Tabby or Tamara available on annual plans if you want them. Company buyers can choose card payment or an invoice settled by bank transfer, after which their seats open automatically.
Each type of buyer pays the way their organisation expects.
Gated libraries of technical, safety and professional videos, grouped by trade or role, with watch records exported for the employer's training file. Arabic and English versions of each video sit under one title so a mixed crew can watch the same material in their preferred language.
Training managers can show who watched what, and when.
A household plan holds several profiles, with a children's space limited to suitable titles and protected by a parent PIN. Parents control screen time settings from their own account and can pause a child's profile without touching the rest of the membership.
Parents trust the plan enough to keep paying for it.
Adaptive streaming drops to a low bitrate on weak connections at field sites and camps, and members can choose a data saver setting in their account. Thumbnails and pages are kept light so the plan page loads on a poor signal.
Members away from the city can still watch.
Members manage their plan, card, devices and invoices from one account page, receive reminders before renewal and can cancel online at any time, keeping access to the end of the period they paid for. Failed renewals are retried and followed by a payment link.
Fewer support calls and fewer silent lapses.
Payments, renewals, seat top ups and refunds produce e-invoices that meet ZATCA's Fatoora requirements, downloadable by members and sent to your accounting system. Company invoices show the buyer's details and seat count for their procurement team.
Your books and your members' records always agree.
Who this suits
Most of the Dammam clients we speak to are not entertainment companies first. They are training providers, academic teams, family brands and sports organisations that already produce good video and now want it to pay for itself. Video streaming subscription website development in Dammam is therefore usually about turning existing material into a membership people and employers will renew, with the right buyer at the centre of each plan. The platform also needs to sit comfortably beside the systems these organisations already run, such as HR records, campus sign in or an existing website.
Providers that train staff for the energy, petrochemical and manufacturing employers around Dammam, Dhahran and Jubail can sell their video libraries as memberships to companies and individuals. We build employer seat licences, watch records for training files, Arabic and English versions and invoices that procurement teams accept, so selling to a large employer does not mean a long manual onboarding process. Individual technicians who want to study for their next role can still join on their own plan.
Employer accounts sit beside individual plans.
Institutions such as Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University and the colleges around Dhahran produce lectures, public talks and continuing education that alumni and professionals would pay to watch. We build student and alumni tiers, campus sign in for enrolled students and paid memberships for the public, all on one platform the institution controls. Public lectures can stay free to build an audience, with full series reserved for members.
Campus sign in keeps enrolled students free of charge.
Producers of children's series, Arabic learning shows and family content can sell household memberships to parents across the region. We build children's profiles, parental controls, gift memberships for grandparents and a plan page that explains clearly what a family gets, in Arabic first. Short free episodes stay outside the paywall so parents can see the quality before they commit.
Parents decide, so the plan page speaks to them.
Academies and clubs in Dammam and Al Khobar can sell match replays, coaching libraries and behind the scenes content to members and supporters. We add supporter and player tiers, live streams for home fixtures where rights allow, and squad accounts that let an academy grant access to every registered player.

Engagement
Codeeo has a team of 80+ across Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi, has delivered 200+ projects across the UAE and the US and holds a 4.7 rating from 23 Google reviews. With Dammam clients we run discovery, reviews and acceptance testing by video call, record each session and keep decisions in a shared log so people on different shifts stay informed. One project lead is responsible for scope, dates and quality. Video streaming membership payment integration in Dammam, covering individual cards, company invoices and Bahraini customers, is built and tested by the same team that builds the site.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
We commonly use Next.js with a headless CMS for Arabic and English content, a managed video platform for encoding and adaptive playback, single sign-on for campuses and employers where needed, and a SAMA licensed gateway. Hosting and data location are agreed with you under PDPL and NCA guidance.

It depends mostly on how many kinds of buyer you serve at launch.
A platform selling one individual plan and a gated library is a much smaller project than one that also handles employer seats, student verification and Bahraini customers. Gateway approval for recurring charges and Fatoora integration run in parallel with the build. After discovery we give you a written plan with each stage and its dependencies, and we often suggest launching with one buyer type and adding the others in a second phase.
