PM Connect’s mission is to make in-demand content accessible to all.
We specialise in mobile distribution for major OTT services – connecting brands to new audiences, growing subscribers and driving revenue.
By plugging in with us, we navigate the complexities of the mobile operator ecosystem.
Founded in 2012, PM Connect now has a global reach of 1 billion consumers in 40+ territories, processing over 100 million mobile payments per month.
We operate across Africa, Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, the Middle East – with offices in the UK, Paris, Dubai, Singapore and Johannesburg – pairing global expertise with local support.
PM Connect is entering Innovation of The Year at the 2021 SportsPro OTT Awards because we are changing the game for accessibility of D2C Sports OTT consumption.
Announced in April 2021, our recent launch as distribution and payments partner for the NBA League Pass is the proof of concept we needed to supercharge growth in sports D2C OTT, and accompany sports rights holders on their journey beyond linear TV deals – all via the power of mobile.
The partnership has expanded the reach of NBA League Pass to new fans in Europe and Africa, with PM Connect providing connections to over 300 million consumers across 20 mobile network operators (MNOs) in seven countries.
Fans can now add a NBA League Pass subscription to their mobile phone bill via direct carrier billing (DCB) – without the need of a credit card.
This gives huge opportunity for D2C growth – as NBA League Pass can reach and monetise consumers it otherwise couldn’t, while also giving sports fans access to the world class content they crave. We have already driven over 100k new subscribers in a matter of months.
Our strategy complements other marketing and payment methods – but will disrupt how sports content is paid for and consumed forever.
