FILMTRADE x SIFF 2026
FilmTrade is offering all films in the SIFF 2026 program either free or discounted cards!
-
All feature films can request 20 free cards (no purchase required). If you want more, you can also add more cards to your order, using our Order Portal.
-
All short films can request a 20% discount code that can be used during the Order Portal checkout process.
You may also enable digital-only rentals/sales via FilmTrade; as there is no official virtual component of SIFF this year, this could be a compelling alternative for audience members who can’t attend in-person or are not able to make the scheduled theatrical screening time(s).
If you’re ready to take advantage of this offer,
Then, make sure to tell us you’re screening at SIFF 2026!
More Details on this Offer
Filmtrade offers multiple card options (including unlimited play or single play), industry-standard DRM, and other customizations (like “suggested action” links for audiences to leave a Letterboxd review or visit your personal site). This helps you maximize your impact while monetizing to the extent that you want. It is up to you to determine how you’d like to price, sell and manage the cards that you order.

Create an account and request access to the Order Portal
Once you complete the access request, we will follow up to grant access for placing card orders, as well as instructions on providing your assets for your film’s corresponding page on FilmTrade.
Note: your page is your own; we do not have any advertising, and there is no marketing of other films to your viewers. There is also no public FilmTrade “catalog” to browse, and any public catalogs we may add in the future will require the filmmaker to opt-in at that time.
Depending on order time, we’ll have a few ways to get your cards to you:
Pick up your cards from FilmTrade during SIFF (we will have a nearby offsite location for pickup, details TBA)
Ship them to you, for use after SIFF
-
It’s up to you how you want to use your cards: sell them, give them away to audiences and industry connections, or some of both -- the choice is yours.
If you plan to manage the sales at SIFF or at future festivals, we can provide you with some easy-to-follow instructions to set up a Square account on your smartphone that will let you take credit cards and Tap-to-Pay with no accessory needed.
