Pickbox.tv launches on T-Hrvatski Telekom

Deutsche Telekom-owned Croatian telco T-Hrvatski Telekom has added local on-demand player Pickbox.tv’s subscription video-on-demand service to its MAXtv line-up. 

T-Hrvatski Telekom will offer its users access to Pickbox.tv and its content, comprising more than 70 TV series and 300 movies, through the MAXtv platform. Users will be able to subscribe to the SVoD service through the IPTV platform and watch unlimited content on their TV sets for a monthly subscription fee.

Pickbox.tv launched in May in Croatia, Slovenia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia and Montenegro, and is available across a number platforms, through iOS and Android devices, and via the web. The platform offers a catalogue of about 3,000 hours in content, subtitled in four languages, with deals in place with content providers including ABC Studios, BBC, CBS, Disney, ITV, MGM and Sony.

“This is a really exciting development for Pickbox and we are very happy to enter into a business collaboration with the biggest regional telecom – Hrvatski telekom. Pickbox SVOD as a part of the HT’s IPTV platform MaxTV will bring new flexibility of watching TV series and movies. Pickbox users and MAXtv subscribers will have access to TV content when they want on a variety of devices,” said Sanja Božić Ljubičić, CEO of Pickbox.

“We believe that this collaboration will provide another convenient way to watch shows and movies people love throughout Croatia.”
