The Amazon Fire Stick is one of the best devices for IPTV. It's affordable, fast and connects to any TV via HDMI. This guide shows you how to install TiviMate (recommended) or IPTV Smarters on your Fire Stick and connect your GIGA IPTV subscription in minutes.
What You Need
- Amazon Fire Stick (any model — Lite, 4K, 4K Max, Fire TV Cube)
- A GIGA IPTV subscription (or free trial)
- Your M3U URL or Xtream Codes login (sent by email after order)

Method 1: Install TiviMate (Recommended)
TiviMate is the best IPTV player for Fire Stick — smooth interface, great EPG, and supports catch-up TV.
Go to Settings → My Fire TV → Developer Options → Apps from Unknown Sources → Turn ON. This allows installing apps not in the Amazon store.
Search for Downloader in the Amazon App Store (it's free and made by AFTVnews). Install it.
Open Downloader, go to the URL field and type: tivimate.com — download and install the TiviMate Companion app, then install TiviMate from the Play Store link it provides.
Open TiviMate → Add Playlist → M3U Playlist → paste your GIGA IPTV M3U URL → tap Next and wait for the channels to load.
In TiviMate settings, add your EPG URL (provided in your welcome email). This gives you a 7-day programme guide for all channels.
Browse channels by category, favourite your top channels and enjoy HD/4K TV on your Fire Stick.
Method 2: Install IPTV Smarters Pro
IPTV Smarters is available directly from the Amazon App Store — no sideloading needed.
- Search IPTV Smarters Pro in the Amazon App Store and install it
- Open the app → Add User → choose Xtream Codes API
- Enter your GIGA IPTV server URL, username and password (from your welcome email)
- Tap Add User — channels load automatically
