Looking for the best SportCam alternatives to stream your team's matches live without breaking the bank? Phone-based streaming apps with a built-in scoreboard — no expensive camera rig, no laptop — are now the easiest way for a parent, coach or club volunteer to broadcast a match.
While there are several options on the market, EasySportStream, SportCam, ScoreCam and Cam One are the four you'll run into most often. All four let you go live straight from a phone, but their pricing, free features and platform support vary a lot. Here is what each SportCam alternative actually costs once you get past the "free to download" hook.
What it costs to just go live
EasySportStream — streaming to YouTube is free, with no subscription required to start. PRO (€5.99/month) adds Remote Scoring, scoreboard customization, a hold graphic, sponsor logos and custom RTMP, and your first stream earns 7 days of PRO free.
SportCam — streaming itself is free, but most of what makes a broadcast look finished (remote scoring, custom branding and sponsor logos, RTMP output) sits behind SportCam PRO: $19.99/month or $69.99/year.
ScoreCam — live streaming is the paid feature. "Live Stream + Pro" starts at $12.99/month ($59.99/year), or a $79.99 one-time Pro purchase. Facebook is not officially supported.
Cam One — the Free tier includes unlimited live streaming to YouTube or Facebook, no credit card required. Cam One doesn't publish fixed PRO/PRO+ prices — plans are billed through the Google Play Store and localised to your currency. Cam One is Android-only today; there's no iOS app yet (it's on the roadmap, with a waitlist).
What it costs to let someone else run the score
EasySportStream — remote scoring, where a second person updates the score from their own phone while you film, is part of EasySportStream PRO: €5.99/month, cancel anytime.
SportCam — remote scoring requires PRO.
ScoreCam — remote scoring needs a separate companion app plus the PRO subscription.
Cam One — remote scoring from a second device sits behind the PRO plan, same as sponsor logos, banner messages and removing the watermark/in-app ads. The Free tier gets you live streaming only.
A season, roughly
For a team streaming around 20 matches a year: EasySportStream is $0 if one person films and scores with the standard scoreboard, or about €72/year (€5.99/month PRO) if you want a second person running the score remotely, your own sponsor logos or custom RTMP. SportCam PRO annual runs about $70. ScoreCam's paid tiers run about $60–$100/year just to unlock streaming in the first place. Cam One doesn't list a fixed annual price — PRO/PRO+ billing runs through Google Play — but remote scoring, branding and watermark removal all sit behind that same paid step, and iOS teams can't use it at all yet.
