Record-breaking reality shows like the Showmax Originals ‘Somizi & Mohale’, ‘The Union’ and ‘Life With Kelly Khumalo’. Lokshin Bioskop movies and SAFTA-winning classics like the drama ‘Lockdown’, the comedy series ‘Hotel’, the action-packed ‘iNumber Number’ and much more.
Users of Showmax’s subscription-free offering will see adverts during playback and be prompted to upgrade to Showmax paid plans. Customers will be able to easily upgrade to the full ad-free Showmax entertainment catalogue to access complete seasons of the latest local and international series, blockbuster movies and kids’ content.
“We’re proud to have an extensive collection of the continent’s most-loved original African content to share with our customers and introduce them to the world of streaming on Showmax,” said Yolisa Phahle, CEO for General Entertainment and Connected Video at MultiChoice Group.
