BT Sport added to NOW TV

June 16, 2020 12.27 Europe/London By Julian Clover

BT Sport is now available through Sky’s NOW TV platform through a new BT Sport Monthly Pass.

As part of the arrangement, existing BT Sport customers with access to its app for large screen devices can also access BT Sport on NOW TV devices at no extra cost, giving them a second screen to watch two livestreams simultaneously.

Andy Haworth, managing director, commercial, BT Sport, said: “Today’s news marks the latest in this season’s sport innovations from BT, following our launch this season of Europe’s only channel offering sports in stunning HDR picture quality. BT continues to create more ways for our customers to watch their favourite sport, and we’re connecting more viewers to our content as BT Sport continues to go from strength to strength.”

BT Sport can already be accessed through devices including Samsung smart TV, Sony PlayStation, Xbox and Apple TV, as well as mobiles, tablets, BT TV, Sky, TalkTalk and Virgin Media.

The move comes just in time for the restart of the Premier League and BT Sport’s first game on June 20. BT Sport viewers will have the option to watch with or without a pre-recorded dynamic crowd noise feature, using the red button.

BT Sport will also continue to make the majority of games available using the latest broadcast technology, including 4k HDR with Dolby Atmos and in 360° on the BT Sport App.
