MultiChoice Ghana has re-introduced Showmax Africa’s popular video-on-demand (VOD) platform at a pulsating event in Accra. Speaking during the launch event, Alex Okyere, Managing Director, MultiChoice Ghana, noted: “Today is a significant milestone for the entertainment sector. We are leveraging our experience in Film and Television to re-introduce our revamped Video-On-Demand (VOD) service Showmax to Ghanaians.”
With the additional functionality of real-time payment with MTN MOMO and the backbone of the Peacock platform, Showmax users are in for an enhanced user experience. We are excited we have been able to restore payment via MOMO and this marks a new era of accessible, high-quality VOD entertainment, thus supporting the nation’s digital transformation and spotlighting local creative talent through world-class content at rock bottom prices.”
Mr. Okyere added, “Our Showmax customers’ ability to activate their Showmax accounts with MOMO will allow customers to access an exclusive selection of TV shows, movies, sports, and documentaries via Showmax, making premium entertainment more accessible than ever before across multiple devices. Showmax offers a rich content library that includes both local productions and global hits, as well as the English Premier League.”
The MOMO enablement perfectly aligns with our commitment to bridging the digital gap while transforming lives through technology. As smartphone adoption continues to soar in the country, we are dedicated to enhancing the convenience of paying for all our services.
The launch of Showmax also emphasises the importance of supporting local talent and productions. By featuring a variety of local content, the platform aims to elevate the voices of Ghanaian artists and storytellers, ensuring that their work reaches a broader audience. This initiative not only enriches the entertainment landscape but also contributes to the growth of the local creative economy.
Users can simply download the Showmax app, select their preferred package and pay with MTN Momo while on the go.
