StarHub to offer customers upsized entertainment with Disney+

Continuing the momentum to reimagine customers’ entertainment experience, StarHub has signed an exclusive agreement with The Walt Disney Company to become the official distributor of Disney+ in Singapore with StarHub’s TV, mobile and broadband offerings.

When Disney+ launches on 23 February 2021, StarHub’s TV, mobile and broadband customers will be among the first few in the world to enjoy all six Disney content brands of this much-awaited streaming service through their TVs or on-the-go over StarHub 5G – Singapore’s widest 5G network with over 70% population coverage.

Disney+ will be the eighth streaming platform fully integrated within StarHub TV+ for customers to get the most comprehensive entertainment fix easily, all in one place. They can enter the captivating world of Disney+, and according to their preference, switch between streaming apps and the extensive library of unique TV channels, be it on TVs or mobile devices.

Starting today, customers can register their interest at www.starhub.com/disneyplus to receive timely updates about Disney+ on StarHub. StarHub will make available more details about its Disney+ deals for existing and new customers closer to launch.

“We are excited to be the first and only fully-integrated quad-play service provider to raise the entertainment bar for our customers with Disney+, home to some of the most recognisable cultural brands in the world today,” said Johan Buse, Chief of Consumer Business Group, StarHub. “Adding Disney+ to our ever-expanding catalogue of apps and streaming services is an integral part of our TV and digital transformation journey for customers.

With the growing ubiquity of ultra-responsive 5G, our customers will be able to experience true mobility and freedom, enjoying the freshest entertainment at the highest quality anytime, anywhere and on any screen.”
