The sports streaming service DAZN Italia has entered into a new distribution agreement with the satellite platform tivùsat.
As a result, the latter’s viewers will be able to watch a rich selection of live and on demand content including Serie A from Telecom Italia (TIM).
Commenting on the agreement, Stefano Azzi, CEO of DAZN Italia, said: “Live streaming remains at the heart of DAZN’s business development. Thanks to the new partnership with tivùsat, which we are happy to announce today, we are expanding the methods of accessing our service to make the premium content we broadcast increasingly accessible. Our product is now usable in live streaming, on digital terrestrial and even more widely on satellite. As we continue to innovate our app to offer customers more engaging and interactive digital experiences, strengthening our presence on the satellite platform will allow us to reach fans even in areas with less internet access”.
Alberto Sigismondi, president of tivù, added: “We are particularly happy to be able to announce that from today, on the free Italian satellite platform tivùsat, it will also be possible to receive DAZN premium content, with the ZONA DAZN offer from Serie A TIM, a dedicated channel accessible from every corner of the country from the mountains to the islands. Simplicity, quality and free have always been the basis of our satellite television offer: adding to this an important subscription option such as the DAZN service only confirms the value of our commitment and the strategic nature of our services also for premium content publishers”.
ZONA DAZN is an optional channel operated by DAZN. It is available for viewing on tivùsat devices enabled by tivùsat users who add the DAZN ZONE on tivùsat option to their active DAZN subscription.
On ZONA DAZN, sports fans will be able to watch a selection of events, including the seven DAZN exclusive Serie A TIM matches every day, LaLiga EA Sports and original DAZN content.
