The partnership will include six applications in the first rollout phase: Android Mobile, Android TV, IoS, tvOS, Web and ATVfoT, allowing audiences to stream content through any one of TV2GO's three entities.
Using the Zattoo TV Platform, TV2GO will introduce its first TV service to its customers on a platform set to continue growing its business, providing key elements of a carrier-grade TV experience. More than 100 new channels, mostly targeting the Dutch audience, will be introduced by the partnership. Almost all of these channels will be delivered to the other partners via IP and Zattoo by core entity KabelTex.
The new entity, furthermore, will have one set of White Label Apps and one branded TV service. Zattoo will not only host and manage the new TV service but also make it available on mobile, web, and a branded Android TV set-top box.
In addition, each of the three TV2GO entities (KabelTex, SKV, SKP) will use Zattoo’s cutting-edge Bridge platform, combining the most important features for monitoring your streaming service in one place. Customer support teams are able to access all relevant information about your TV service, both on an individual basis and overall. Customer support and quality of service are the main components of Bridge.
“The new partnership with TV2GO is a milestone on our way to expanding our success in core markets towards European countries with significant growth potential,'' says Jörg Meyer, Chief Commercial Officer at Zattoo. “Working closely with our new Dutch partners in coming years across such a range of services may become a blueprint for providing our long-established and successful white-label offering
