Here’s a demo of someone trying to steal the Vimeo link and being blocked:

As you can see the attacker is not able to steal the Vimeo link, he’s only redirected to an image and can’t do anything about it.

If the attacker manages to steal the link, he gets a “unauthorized” page:

Therefore the participants accessing your live stream event must pay for a ticket with Starstream to access the event.

Vimeo Live Stream feature is a paid service. You need the advanced plan to get the Live Stream feature. It’s about 65$/month. However, Vimeo offers a **7 day free trial**.

Vimeo cost money to host live events, however you get 100% security in return. Starstream makes sure that your attendees have paid the ticket to access the live stream and Vimeo makes sure that the live stream can only be seen on your live stream page.

If Vimeo is too expensive, you can use Youtube instead. Youtube is totally free, but does not offer the domain restriction for live stream. Youtube does offer domain restriction for video. See our help article here:
