Extended broadcaster partnership
ITV extends mobile interactive services partnership with
Fonix
ITV PLC, the leading UK TV broadcaster, has agreed to gradually
extend its commercial partnership with Fonix to include SMS billing
payments, alongside the existing relationship for carrier billing
and charity services. The extended commercial relationship will
underpin Fonix's existing growth expectations for the years
ahead.
The deal will see Fonix continue to support all mobile carrier
billing across the ITV competition portal and gradually extend to
supporting all competition interactivity for its on-air formats
including high profile shows such as Dancing on Ice, Good Morning
Britain, Lorraine, ITV Sport, Love Island and This Morning.
Fonix will provide mobile operator payments alongside data
analytics for competitions and interactive broadcast services,
through Fonix's Campaign Manager platform, enabling viewers to
interact and engage with their favourite TV shows, supporting ITV's
ability to deliver an increasingly value-added TV experience.
Ann Cook, Director of Interactive and Managing Director of ITL,
ITV, said: "Over the last five years, we've enjoyed a great working
relationship with Fonix, with the team always delivering an
excellent service both technically and operationally. We look
forward to working more closely together to grow our business and
look at new opportunities that may come from this new
partnership."
Rob Weisz, CEO of Fonix, added: "We're thrilled that all of the
hard work at Fonix has enabled us to deliver a growing and closer
relationship with ITV into the future. Mobile interactivity and
payments have always represented a great opportunity to extend the
viewing experience for broadcasters from an engagement and
monetisation perspective and we're delighted to be supporting ITV
with their strategy in this space.
As a business, we've always taken great pride in the quality
services and support that we're able to deliver for major brands
and broadcasters like ITV, so it's fantastic to have that
recognised with this partnership."
