Come as Live TV Streaming Platform Aims to Be a Super Aggregator
with Flexible Content Bundles at Multiple Price Points
FuboTV Inc. (d/b/a/ Fubo) (NYSE: FUBO), the leading sports-first
live TV streaming platform, announced today the launch of
standalone premium subscription services, enabling consumers to
subscribe to select live and on demand content without a base Fubo
channel plan.
FanDuel Sports Network (formerly Bally Sports Network; currently
live on Fubo in select markets with more to follow), NBA League
Pass and Paramount+ With Showtime are the first networks offered to
customers as standalone subscriptions. These networks continue to
be available in Fubo’s Pro base plan (FanDuel Sports Network) or as
add-on channel packages (NBA League Pass, Paramount+ With
Showtime). Subscribers to these standalone packages will also
receive Fubo Free, a robust collection of nearly 200 free
ad-supported streaming television (FAST) channels.
The launch of standalone services is a key component of Fubo’s
Super Aggregation strategy, where it aims to offer flexible content
bundles, from skinny to fat, at different price points, all within
the Fubo ecosystem. With the growing consumer outcry for a
frictionless streaming experience, Fubo will now offer three
different channel plan tiers:
- Fubo Free: A foundational free tier of FAST channels
available to former Fubo paid and free trial subscribers as well as
to subscribers of premium subscription services.
- Premium Subscription Services: These services, which
include both live linear and SVOD, can be purchased as standalones
and do not require the purchase of the main Fubo product. Fubo is
also exploring the launch of other content offerings such as
pay-per-view (PPV), transactional video on demand (TVOD) and skinny
bundles.
- Virtual MVPD: Fubo continues to offer its signature
vMVPD channel plans that aggregate the best in live sports, news
and entertainment alongside a robust VOD offering.
Fubo customers who subscribe to live linear subscription
services will also receive Unlimited Cloud DVR and the ability to
stream from multiple screens simultaneously.
“Consumers want flexible streaming options that lets them
subscribe to only the content they want to watch,” said David
Gandler, co-founder and CEO, Fubo. “Our vision to be a Super
Aggregator aims to give consumers a seamless way to access all of
the content they love within the Fubo ecosystem and at appropriate
price points. With the addition of standalone live and SVOD premium
subscriptions, we believe offering multiple bundles, from skinny to
fat, will put choice in the hands of our customers. This is what
streaming should be.”
Launches of additional standalone premium subscription services,
both live linear and SVOD, will be announced.
