Foxtel is a prominent Australian pay television company. It operates both traditional broadcast services via satellite and cable, as well as modern IPTV streaming. The Foxtel Group is an Australian technology-led streaming company. It is owned by Telstra and News Corp Australia. Foxtel’s business model is based on subscription services, offering a variety of content packages. These packages can be customized to include specific genres like sports, movies, drama, and documentaries. Foxtel offers a wide array of content from various local and international partners. Key offerings include live sports coverage, blockbuster movies, popular TV shows, and news from multiple sources. It also serves as a hub for other streaming services, allowing users to access apps like Netflix, Disney+, and HBO Max through its platforms. This strategy aims to aggregate entertainment options into a single, convenient interface. Foxtel’s services are delivered through its set-top boxes, such as the iQ4 and iQ5, which also support features like voice control and on-demand streaming. In addition to its main pay-TV service, Foxtel has developed several streaming-first brands. These include Kayo Sports, a dedicated streaming service for sports fans, and BINGE, an entertainment streaming platform with a vast library of shows and movies. Another brand is Flash, a streaming service focused on live news from over 20 global and local sources. These services are often available with no lock-in contracts, providing flexibility for consumers. The company also offers the Foxtel Go app, which is included with a subscription and allows users to stream content on mobile devices while on the go. The company's history dates back to 1995 when it was formed as a joint venture. Over the years, it has expanded its reach, notably acquiring Austar in 2012 to service regional areas of Australia. In 2025, Foxtel Group was acquired by DAZN, a global sports and entertainment company. This acquisition aims to leverage DAZN's global scale and technology to create new opportunities for content and partnerships. Foxtel employs thousands of people and is headquartered in North Ryde, Australia.
