Currently, we provide our subscribers with access to over 120 TV channels, including general, sports, movie, news, education, entertainment and children’s channels. We also offer 34 HD channels, VoD/PPV services, an Internet catch-up TV service, and the Multiroom HD service.

The novelties in our portfolio include access to the popular HBO GO and ipla online services. Additionally, subscribers who have two TV sets may take advantage of our Multiroom HD service.

In April 2011, Cyfrowy Polsat was the first satellite platform in Poland to add the catch-up TV service to its offer. Currently, the service is also available under the name. ’Programme Reruns’. The service allows subscribers to watch selected programmes online, from the range of channels included within their TV packages. Currently, subscribers have access to the most popular titles from 27 TV channels. The ’Programme Reruns’ service is available as part of their TV subscription package. Additionally, the ’Online Channels’ service allows subscribers to watch selected programmes live online as part of their TV subscription fee (five channels are available). Both services are provided based on the ipla technology.
As part of the Online Entertainment service, our customers are granted special terms on using our ipla internet TV resources, while subscribers to the HBO HD Package gain access to the HBO GO service – online video on demand, offering blockbuster movies, as well as HBO productions. We also offer a bonus to all our subscribers, enabling them to use the iplaEXTRA Package as part of their TV subscription fee, while subscribers to the Premium segment packages additionally gain access to the iplaSport and/or iplaPremiery packages.
In June 2012, we expanded our service portfolio to include an innovative product – MOBILE TV in the DVB-T standard.
As part of the MOBILE TV service we offer the paid Extra Package of 20 encrypted channels – 8 TV and 12 radio channels. It includes channels from four thematic categories, including sports (Polsat Sport and Polsat Sport Extra), movies (Polsat Film, Kino Polska, TVP Seriale, Comedy Central), news (Polsat News), and children (Nickelodeon), as well as radio stations, including Radio Zet, Antyradio, Radio Plus, RMF FM, RMF MAXXX, Radio TOK FM, Radio ROXY FM, Radio Złote Przeboje, Eska Rock, Radio PiN, Radio Bajka, and Moje Polskie Radio. The Extra Package is also available for owners of our T-HD 1000 set-top boxes for receiving digital terrestrial television.
The reception of real-time television as part of the MOBILE TV service on mobile devices is enabled by an M-T 5000 mobile set-top box, connected by WI-FI to a mobile device, such as a smartphone, tablet or notebook.
The service, available in the DVB-T standard, does not require Internet access, which means that it does not generate any data transfer and related payments.
As part of ipla online television, we offer access to more than 2,000 movies, over 20 linear TV stations, live broadcasts in the HD format and Poland’s largest authorised base of television content, comprising approximately 48,000 items.

Through our subsidiary Redefine we have launched a music website – muzo. It provides legal access to over 1.7 million of the most popular songs published by Universal Music, SONY Music, EMI, Magic Records and many other Polish music companies and artists.
Access to muzo is offered on three levels: muzo, muzo+ and muzoGO.
