Talkie Fiber Partners with FAST Channels TV to Launch Watchie TV, a New Ad-Supported Streaming Platform, and Seeks ISP/Telco/Cable Partners for Broader Deployment
Baltimore, MD, Tues Nov 5th, 2024 – Talkie Fiber is thrilled to announce the launch of Watchie TV https://watchie.tv/ , a Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV (FAST) service tailored to fiber-to-the-home clients seeking a no-cost TV option. With an increasing number of rural Maryland clients opting out of traditional paid TV services, Talkie Fiber saw an opportunity to provide quality, free TV content as part of their fiber internet packages.
In collaboration with FAST Channels TV, Talkie Fiber has developed Watchie TV, a full-featured ad-supported streaming platform with a diverse content lineup that includes over 100 linear channels and 2,000+ AVOD (Ad-Supported Video on Demand) titles. This turnkey solution, powered by FAST Channels TV’s white-label technology, content, middleware, app ecosystem, and ad-monetization services, enables Talkie Fiber to offer a premium ad-supported streaming experience without upfront or recurring technology costs.
Now, Talkie Fiber is actively seeking partnerships with other ISPs, telcos, and cable operators across the USA interested in offering a similar ad-based TV solution. Partners would benefit from receiving 100% of the ad revenue generated on Watchie TV without incurring any setup fees or monthly minimums. The model is simple: as viewership grows, so do ad rates, ad fill percentages, and content variety, making Watchie TV a compelling proposition for content providers and advertisers alike.
Watchie TV combines a broad mix of English, Spanish, and bilingual content, from news, sports, and classics to Puerto Rican Lucha Libre, Latin American films, stand-up specials, music shows, and more. With both live and on-demand content, Watchie TV caters to the varied interests of diverse communities, ensuring there’s something for everyone.
Russell Foy, CEO of FAST Channels TV, shared his enthusiasm, saying, “We are excited to partner with Watchie TV to make free, high-quality content widely accessible. This partnership strengthens our commitment to delivering engaging, culturally relevant programming to audiences across the spectrum.”
Andre DeMattia, Co-President of Watchie TV, expressed his gratitude for FAST Channels TV’s support: “Working with Russell and the FAST Channels TV team has been crucial in bringing our vision to life. Their revenue-sharing model allows us to focus on delivering top-tier content without high upfront costs. Watchie TV represents an exciting expansion for our clients and market. We’re always expanding our lineup with quality content, so if you're a content creator seeking to broaden your reach across the USA, please get in touch!”
This partnership marks a significant milestone in delivering accessible, community-focused content to a broader audience. With Watchie TV, viewers can anticipate an enriching, user-centric streaming experience.
