SPI/FilmBox Expands Dizi Reach with MEGOGO

SPI International/FilmBox has extended its distribution deal with OTT service MEGOGO for three years and added Dizi to countries in the Baltics and CIS.

Per the deal, Dizi is now available in Azerbaijan, Belarus, Armenia, Georgia, Estonia, Lithuania, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan as a stand-alone VOD service and a linear feed via Timeless Dizi Channel.

Dizi content available to MEGOGO subscribers includes International Emmy Award-nominated Black Money Love, Karadayi, Stiletto Vendetta, 20 Minutes and Raven (Kuzgun).

“The success that Timeless Dizi Channel has reached globally since its launch has been remarkable,” said Murat Muratoğlu, head of distribution at SPI International. “Now, we are excited to bring the riveting world of Dizi to digital through a partnership with MEGOGO, one of the most prominent players in CIS. MEGOGO subscribers will be able to keep up with their favorite Turkish series with the linear feed or watch the episodes on-demand at their leisure.”
