One programmatic FAST business, projected onto satellite & cable screens

Every wedotv channel is an IP-delivered FAST service signalled onto broadcast platforms via HbbTV. The broadcast layer provides tune-in, EPG presence and reach; broadband delivers the content and the ad calls. The result: the same addressable, programmatically-monetised model that runs on CTV — extended across Europe’s two largest satellite neighbourhoods, MENA’s leading neighbourhood, and major German, Austrian, Swiss and Italian cable / IPTV operators.

Gross technical footprint — satellite neighbourhoods

300 M+

TV homes across the three orbital neighbourhoods we distribute on (Astra 19.2°E, HOTBIRD 13°E, 7/8°W). Operator-reported gross reach — footprints overlap, not net-unique.

Addressable layer within the footprint — HbbTV

100 M+

HbbTV homes in Europe today, rising to 120M+ and >50% penetration by 2026 — the programmatic, ad-monetisable subset that grows inside our footprint with zero new carriage.

The HbbTV upside is structural

Because the channels are HbbTV-signalled rather than fixed linear feeds, reach compounds automatically: every new HbbTV-capable set inside the satellite and cable footprint becomes addressable, programmatic inventory — no renegotiation, no new carriage. HbbTV is already a single, consistent inventory across all TV brands, exceeding any individual CTV platform, with a further 34M reachable homes in MENA.

wedotv isn’t carried as broadcast — it uses broadcast distribution to put a programmatic, addressable FAST business on every screen.
