End screens

This feature requires a Plus, Pro, Business, Premium, Standard, Advanced or Enterprise plan.

End screens are tools that help you connect with your viewers after your video finishes playing on an external website where it's embedded, by letting them know where to go next.

End screen options

You can drive engagement and conversions with the following customizable end screen options:

  • More videos: Group together three of your public videos or the latest three videos from one of your channels, groups, or showcases. You also have the option to add a background image to your video’s end screen. The videos shown in this end screen will automatically load and play in your current embedded player. 
    • The last video in the more videos end screen will be hidden when the player is smaller than 375px wide
  • Share options: Display social share icons and the video URL after the video finishes playing. You also have the option to add a background image to your video’s end screen.
  • Custom image: Display an image after the video finishes playing. You also have the option to make the custom image a clickable link.
  • Call to action (CTA): Display a button with a custom link to seamlessly direct viewers straight to your site, product page, or anywhere else on the Internet. You also have the option to add a title, description, additional custom URL, and background image to your video’s end screen.
    • The title in the CTA end screen will be hidden when the player is smaller than 360px wide and 203px tall.
    • The description in the CTA end screen will be hidden when the player is smaller than 415px wide and 234px tall
  • Contact forms (Business, Premium, Advanced, and Enterprise only): Display a customized contact form screen at the end of your video, with the option to add a custom message. Please note that this end screen option will not be available if you’ve already set up a contact form before or during your video. Learn more about contact forms.
  • The changes will only be reflected when your video is embedded on another web page and on-site if your video is set to Unlisted. Public and password-protected video pages on vimeo.com will use default appearance settings.

The custom message in the contact form screen will be hidden when the player is smaller than 200px tall.

Vimeo Business, Premium, Advanced, and Enterprise members can also track the performance of the CTA end screen or contact form end screen of a video from its analytics panel. Learn more about analytics for video interaction tools. 

If you’d prefer something simpler, you also have the following options for what happens after your embedded video finishes playing:

  • Thumbnail: This video will return to the beginning thumbnail after it finishes playing.
  • Empty: Your video will not show anything after it finishes playing.
  • Loop: Your video will loop after it finishes playing, infinitely.

Except for the Thumbnail and Loop options, there is a replay button in the bottom left corner of every end screen.

All the options listed above can be found by navigating to your video's Settings page > Player > End screen. Open the End screen drop-down menu to choose your end screen.

Please note that only some end screens work when you're in a portfolio:

  • More videos
  • Call to action
  • Share options
  • Custom image
  • Thumbnail
  • Empty*
  • Text

These end screen features do not appear in portfolios:

  • Loop
  • Contact forms

Embedding the player in small sizes

These end screens will be hidden when the player is embedded smaller than 300px wide or 169px tall:

  • CTA
  • More videos
  • Share options
  • Custom image
  • Text
  • Contact forms

If you’re embedding a video within a responsive webpage, your end screen may not appear on mobile if the player is too small (below 300px wide or 169px tall).
