Free Advertising Supported Television (FAST) Channels
NCTC offers various solutions to help members navigate the ever-changing video environment, including the proliferation of FAST channels. By partnering with several FAST OTT service providers, NCTC affords members the opportunity to provide their customers with streaming linear and on-demand content without paying a subscription fee. Members benefit from a customer growth/retention perspective when they offer their customers more choice and video options.

Operators are continually shifting to meet ever-changing consumer demand in the video ecosystem. As more direct-to-consumer video services are made available over the internet, it can be difficult for end consumers to find the content they want to watch and manage these various subscriptions. This is where our new partner comes in.
MyBundle.TV creates tools for ISPs to help their end customers identify which streaming platforms have the most important content for them. MyBundle.TV offers a suite of products that can look and feel as if they are part of your website. These tools can be customized to fit the needs of each member company. If you want to emphasize video, the tools can make recommendations to the end customer highlighting traditional programming. If you wish to deemphasize video, the tool can be customized to highlight an OTT video partner. Often, participating members can reap a recurring monthly bounty for as long as a customer keeps a streaming service.
There are other deals MyBundle.TV has launched; however, the NCTC deal comes with the guaranteed best rates. It also includes an above-average revenue share.
