February 7, 2024

The white label OTT platform of Hispasat is an ideal turnkey solution to offer users a high-quality entertainment service with a variable cost model and a reduced time-to-market.

Hispasat has signed an agreement with Netlife, the first FTTH operator in Ecuador, to incorporate, under the name Netlife Play, Hispasat's Wave OTT Plus white label platform. Thanks to this solution as a service, Netlife will provide its clients a high-quality multi-screen entertainment service, without the need to have deployed its own infrastructure and reducing both the initial investment and the time required for its launch.

Ignacio Sanchis, CCO of Hispasat, stated that “we are very proud of the trust that Netlife has placed in our Wave OTT Plus solution. We believe it is the ideal solution for operators like Netlife to quickly offer their customers a comprehensive OTT video service.”

Xavier Moreano, national marketing manager at Netlife, added that “the powerful turnkey solution proposed by Hispasat through Wave OTT Plus has allowed the launch of Netlife Play in a simple and efficient way to reinforce our offer with a highly attractive incentive for our clients."

Wave OTT Plus combines Hispasat’s Over The Top (OTT) as a service video distribution platform with linear and video on demand content. This service includes more than 50 international linear channels, series, movies and other premium content provided by the world's leading programmers. In addition, Wave OTT Plus incorporates the most important national channels from each country.

This white label platform is available to telecommunications operators and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in all Spanish-speaking countries in South America; and soon it will also be offered in Brazil.
