        I personally use Easy Video Player 2 as it enables me to use this. Videos are played off amazon S3 and the software enables you to do all sorts of stuff with links in the videos.

        I am sure there are a lot more software's out there that will allow you to do this but I brought this a long time ago and it has worked well for me so I have no reason to change.

          Hey Shailendra,

          Many hosting solutions allow you to do this and you can also put links in at the end of an HTML5 video with Javascript.

          For the latter option - I recommend reading through this page http://bubbles.childnodes.com/ which gives you some usable code.

          If you're looking to host your videos with a third party provider - then I recommend either Wistia or Vimeo Pro which both allow you to very simply add clickable links as a "call to action" at the end of a video.

          + Add Image or Video URLs

          Hope that's useful.

          Phil
