MultiChoice-owned GOtv platform has announced plans to air the Premier League and La Liga matches at the start of the incoming season. The live games will be available on the GOtv Supa+ package, which is also a host of other 70+ channels.
This is the first time that GOtv subscribers will be able to enjoy this product. The move may be seen to cushion Kenyans from high DStv prices, which MultiChoice just increased a few days ago. The Premium plan, for instance, now costs KES 9900, and for people who just want to enjoy a match or two without paying a premium that DStv now charges, they might as well pick the GOtv Supa+ package.
GOtv Supa+ will be available in Mozambique, Uganda, Ghana, Namibia, Zambia, Nigeria, Malawi, and Kenya, starting from 1 August 2023.
Currently, GOtv runs five packages that start from KES 200. Here is the full list:
Package | Cost | Number of channels |
Lite | 200 | 20 |
Value | 650 | Over 30 |
Plus | 1000 | Over 45 |
Max | 1350 | Over 55 |
Supa | 1750 | Over 70 |
Based on the list, it is obvious that the new and upgraded Supa channel (Supa+) will cost above the value of Supa.
