Tstv is a satellite platforms which is similar to the very popular Dstv you know, but tstv is different,its pay per view decoder, were you only pay per as you watch any channel on it.
The subscription fee is very flexible and it ranges from N200, N500, N1000, N1500 and N3000.
And with Tstv, you don't need to pay subscription monthly or periodically, you pay as you consume any channel on it.
Tstv Nigeria is a joint venture owned by ABS and Telcom satellite Tv, tstv signals will be distributed on the ABS 3A africa beam, located at 3 degrees west.
Don’t confuse yourself, the journey of TSTv didn’t begin 2017, this company has a longer history.
In the year 2006, ABS successfully concluded the acquisition of the Lockheed Martin Intersputnik-1 (LMI-1) satellite which was promptly renamed ABS-1 satellite.
This was followed in the year 2010, with the announcement of the successful acquisition of ABS from Citi Venture Capital International and Asia Debt Management by Permira funds and the ABS management team .
In Nigeria, ABS is trading with the name TSTV, but operates under the company name TELCOM SATELLITES LIMITED.
Now it gets more confusing right?
Here is it, TELCOM SATELLITES is registered under the Companies and Allied Matters Act, Laws of Nigeria. The company‘s current and planned activities extend throughout Nigeria and would be expanding to other African countries.
Since ABS owns TSTV, who owns ABS?
This is one smart question, at least ABS didn’t just drop from the skies.
ABS is majority owned by the Permira funds which are advised by European Private Equity firm Permira.
ABS is led by a management team of talented and experienced professionals, and offers a complete range of End-to-End solutions including Direct to Home (DTH), Cable TV distribution (CATV), Cellular Backhaul, VSAT and Internet Backbone services with diverse IP transit through its European, Middle East and Asian internet gateways.
