2020/05/31

POPS Worldwide, Southeast Asia’s leading digital entertainment company announces today the launch of its free ad-supported video-on-demand (AVOD) service in Thailand today, “POPS App”, powered with over 2,000 age-appropriate and brand-safe episodes from shows specifically curated for kids and families.

The application boasts a wide selection of well-loved international titles like Marvel Anime series with Iron Man, Wolverine, X-Men, Blade and Alien Ninano from SONY, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure from Animax, edutainment programs from ZooMoo, as well as Thai originals from POPS’ production arm and its popular creator network. Viewers can expect to see content from their favorite digital influencers like Bie the Ska, Tor Torpedo and Thailand’s e-sports phenomenon, Bacon Time.

The launch of POPS App in Thailand as a safe platform specifically addressing age-appropriate content will alleviate growing fears among Southeast Asian parents over the content their children are consuming online. Built-in safety features including password-protection and time-controlled viewing allows the flexibility for parents to design the ideal content viewing schedules up to four individual user profiles per account. An abundance of content is set to be refreshed on the application throughout the year, including fresh Thai originals, animation, and anime content, promising non-stop entertainment for all families – completely for free.

Ms. Marissa Hanafi, Head of OTT & Content of POPS Worldwide said, “We believe that quality entertainment should be readily accessible for all. Expanding POPS App in Thailand especially during this unprecedented time cements our dedication towards providing our kids, teen, and millennial viewers a truly safe haven of free, top-tier entertainment and edutainment programs.”
