Kayo Freebies to be integrated on Hubbl, adding thousands of hours of free sport to the platform with no Kayo Sports login required
Australia’s newest transformative TV technology, Hubbl, today announced Kayo Freebies has joined the lineup of Australia’s biggest free streaming apps available on Hubbl.
Thousands of hours of free live and on demand sporting moments, across a wide range of sports, will be integrated into the Hubbl experience via Kayo Freebies from Thursday 4 April.
Just in time for the start of the Super Netball season and Formula 1 races in Japan and China, Kayo Freebies content will be available to stream directly from the Hubbl home page and via the dedicated sport page.
Kayo Freebies will be seamlessly available on Hubbl, users can just click on the Freebies rail to start streaming, no additional login required.
In a celebration of the best of Australian sports, live and free, Hubbl will now fuse content from Australia’s biggest free apps including YouTube and free-to-air apps together with Kayo Freebies. The best of free sports will be hero-ed throughout the Hubbl universe with curated carousels and featured rails celebrating hours of the best free sporting events.
Sports fans will also be able to select their favourite free sporting moments by simply using the ‘+’ button on the remote to add to a personalised Watchlist.
Making access to free sport easier than ever before, Kayo Freebies on Hubbl will not require a Kayo subscription to view free content. Sports available to stream via Kayo Freebies includes select Super Netball games, select NBL games including the NBL Finals and all NBL1 games, all Formula 1 and MotoGP practice and qualifier races, select Supercars races, all races and events for Sail GP and America’s Cup, and the World Surf League, plus a variety of Kayo Minis and Kayo Bites for the best highlights in sport.
Les Wigan, Managing Director of Hubbl, says, ‘The Hubbl universe makes accessing your favourite apps and channels simple. We are pleased we can now use the Hubbl technology to make Kayo Freebies even easier to access. Though Kayo Freebies remains available through the Kayo Sports app, on Hubbl it means no Kayo Sports password or username is required and dedicated rails will bring together hours of the best free sporting events with ease.”
Julian Ogrin, Managing Director of Kayo Sports, says, ‘Sport is part of our DNA and we know how much Australians love it. Several years ago Kayo made a commitment to offer free sport to the Australian public. Kayo makes it effortless to get access to that sport and we are thrilled to be able to use the Hubbl technology to take that further – whether its live, replays or minis, there are 35+ free sports available to stream on the platform.’
Stacey West, CEO of Netball Australia, says, “Netball is the number one female team sport in Australia and is played by over one million people – with Kayo Freebies added to Hubbl, Australians will have another easy way to access the very best from the sport, including the Suncorp Super Netball season which starts on April 13.”
Hubbl is available at Harvey Norman and JB Hi Fi retail stores nationally and via Hubbl.com.au.
