SPI International/Filmbox takes raft of channels to Net1

Channel provider SPI International/Filmbox has struck a deal with Bulgarian telecom operator Net1 that will see 10 channels from SPI’s portfolio made available to Net1 subscribers.

The line-up includes SPI’s premium movie channel FilmBox Extra, along with three other movie channels – FilmBox, FilmBox Plus and FilmBox Arthouse – and a range of thematic channels.

The other channels included in the deal are Gametoon which is dedicated to gaming; combat sports offering FightBox; adrenaline sports channel Fast&FunBox; factual offering DocuBox; fashion and lifestyle-themed FashionBox , and music channel 360 TuneBox.

“We are very excited to announce the start of our partnership with Net1. Our ten versatile channels will provide Net1 subscribers with a vast amount of content to choose from depending on their interests,” said Murat Muratoğlu, Head of Distribution at SPI International.

“Our partnership with SPI added quality content tailored to the needs of different users. These 10 first-class channels complemented the diversity of our TV list. The launch came at the very appropriate time, when our customers, spending more time at home, because of the pandemic, received a choice of more than 200 channels with a variety of topics. To enable all our existing and new subscribers to enjoy this experience, they received from us the entire package of 10 channels as a gift for a promotional period of time. I hope that our cooperation with SPI will continue in the direction of content enrichment, so that we can satisfy all tastes,” said Peter Rizov, Net1 Executive.
