LuluStream and FileHost.net are close cousins in how they work: you upload a video, the service encodes it for streaming, and you share a link or an embed. Both also pay uploaders for views and both sell a premium account that removes limits. The differences are in the details, and the details are what decide whether a switch is worth the effort.
This page lines the two up using what LuluStream publishes on its public pages as of November 2026 and what FileHost.net documents in its own premium, earn money and API pages. Where LuluStream does not publish a number, the table says so instead of guessing. One example is the minimum payout, which we could not find on any public page we reached.
Read it as a checklist for your own situation: how large your files are, how long they sit untouched, which countries your viewers come from, and how you want to be paid.
Facts as of November 2026. "Not published" means the provider does not state it publicly. Plans and limits change, so confirm on the official site before deciding.

LuluStream sells premium by the day count. According to its premium page, 30 days costs $19.99, 120 days $69.99, 180 days $89.99 and 365 days $129.99. The longer plans get cheaper per day, which rewards commitment but makes the entry price high if you only want to test.
FileHost.net prices by calendar period: $7.99 for a month, $37.99 for six months and $77.99 for a year. For a creator who just wants larger uploads and files that never expire, the monthly entry point is the lower of the two. Always compare the plan features line by line, because premium bundles differ. LuluStream lists priority encoding, no logo in the player and a higher remote upload limit; FileHost.net lists ad-free viewing for you, 20 GB files, custom player color and priority upload.
The first thing to notice is wording. LuluStream says you can "earn up to $35 per 10k views". That figure is a ceiling. What you actually earn depends on where viewers are, and a public breakdown by country was not available on the pages we could read.
FileHost.net shows the whole table: $33 for tier 1, $22 for tier 2, $11 for tier 3, $7 for tier 4, $1.50 for Turkey and $5 for everywhere else, each per 10,000 views. If most of your audience sits in lower tiers, the ceiling matters less than the table. Both services limit how many views from one person count in a day, so neither rewards refreshing.
LuluStream's FAQ says free users' videos are removed after 60 days and premium videos are never removed. FileHost.net uses the same 60-day inactive rule for free accounts and never deletes premium files. The practical lesson is the same on both: a free account is a good fit for content that gets watched regularly, and an archive of rarely viewed material belongs on a premium plan or a separate backup.
Create a free account, upload a video, get a shareable link and an embed player in minutes. No card needed.
