YoTV Channels and MTN Uganda have today announced a partnership that will allow customers to easily and conveniently access local TV and radio on their smartphones.
YoTV Channels is a mobile and web-based solution that aggregates local media content (TV and Radio) and makes it seamlessly available wherever you are. With more than 50 local channels already, YoTV Channels allows its customers to enjoy local content at their convenience with ability to pause, rewind, record and catch up with missed programs up to 24 hours.
While announcing this partnership, Aggrey Mugisha, the YoTV Channels CEO noted that this partnership shows that both MTN and YoTV Channels are committed to promoting local content through allowing Ugandans to enjoy uninterrupted local TV and Radio at their convenience through YoTV Channels.
“As a purely Ugandan brand, we recognize the importance of Buy Uganda, Build Uganda. As such, we relish every opportunity that further builds our country. All MTN customers with smart phones should simply download the YOTV Channels APP and register with their MTN numbers to enjoy local TV and Radio anytime, anywhere. At the end of 30 days of free viewing, YoTV Channels users can then upgrade to a subscription plan of their choice starting with as low as UGX 500. We are delighted to partner with MTN Uganda on this.” Aggrey Mugisha explained.
On his part, MTN Uganda Ag. Chief Marketing Officer, Sen Somdev, said this partnership is a win-win for both YoTV Channels and MTN Customers.

Life as it is now is so busy and people find themselves caught up with work commitments leaving them with little time to catch up with their favourite shows. MTN is therefore pleased to partner with YOTV to bring yet more convenience to our customers because we are good together,” Sen Somdev said.
The YoTV Channels App subscription will provide customers with unlimited access to local TV and Radio for 30 days FREE trial after which they will upgrade to a subscription plan of their own preference.
