FAST channels (free ad-supported television) have landed on TVNZ+, with the new additions supporting TVNZ’s strategic focus on accelerating digital audiences and revenues through offering streaming viewers new content and experiences across platforms.

Two business-focused Bloomberg channels and FIFA+, a new home for Aotearoa’s football fanatics rolled out across TVNZ+ endpoints late last week, joining the platform’s expansive catalogue. The channels are now available in the Live TV menu, sitting alongside TVNZ 1, 2 and DUKE.

TVNZ’s digital strategy is focused on delivering content to viewers however they want to consume it. The new FAST channels complement TVNZ+’s existing line up, and further FAST offerings will be sought based on their ability to provide TVNZ+’s 1.44million strong audience with something unique, must-watch or binge-worthy.

For news enthusiasts, Bloomberg’s FAST channels, Bloomberg TV+ and Bloomberg Originals bring viewers unmatched global business coverage and analysis, alongside in-depth interviews with thought-leaders and Executives from around the world.
