Singtel, StarHub and Mediacorp are joining forces to deliver coverage of this year’s World Cup in Singapore.

All three platforms will offer complete FIFA World Cup coverage for S$94.16 until May 22 and S$112.35 thereafter, the same rates charged for the World Cup four years ago.

“Having brought the FIFA World Cup to viewers since 2010, we know how important the tournament is to Singaporeans,” said Yuen Kuan Moon, CEO for Consumer Singapore at Singtel. “We are pleased this year to work with our broadcast partners to give all Singaporeans front row seats to the Cup. Football is for everyone and we are excited to bring the drama and suspense of all 64 games to viewers via Singtel TV, Singtel TV GO and our CAST app.”

“Football unites people and nothing proves this more than the FIFA World Cup, which turns even casual onlookers into diehard superfans overnight,” said Tan Tong Hai, CEO of StarHub. “With matchday one quickly approaching, we are happy to put public interest first and take to the field together with Singtel and Mediacorp to enable all of Singapore to enjoy the beautiful game.”

“Mediacorp is truly excited about bringing all the action and stories of the FIFA World Cup to Singapore audiences,” said Tham Loke Kheng, CEO of Mediacorp. “We’re making all 64 matches available on Toggle through subscription and broadcasting nine key matches free on okto in our extensive coverage. We’re also producing special programs for Singtel, StarHub and Mediacorp that capture the highlights and deliver insights and commentary about the games on football’s greatest stage.”
