The collaboration will allow Safaricom Home Fibre customers and mobile users to enjoy a variety of premium TV shows, movies, sports, and documentaries with enhanced convenience.

As part of the deal, Safaricom Home Fibre subscribers will now be able to stream DStv content, while Safaricom customers purchasing any Go Monthly plus plan will receive a one-month subscription voucher for either Showmax Entertainment Mobile or Showmax Entertainment (All devices).
