March looks to be a month of significant announcements for DStv customers. Following last week’s move to bring back two concurrent streams to the platform, now DStv Compact customers are getting the addition of five channels to their bouquet.

Here, MultiChoice confirmed that the additional channels will be accessible from 1st April onwards.

The service provider is also punting the discount it offers to Compact customers for its streaming platform – Showmax.

“DStv Compact customers also benefit from access to a second stream on the DStv Stream app, allowing them to stream on two devices concurrently, including smart TVs. Customers will also enjoy a 40% discount on Showmax, providing affordable access to a huge library of movies, series and other content on-demand,” it added in a release shared with Hypertext.

SuperSport Action (channel 210),  

Africa Magic Showcase (channel 151), 

CBS Justice (channel 170), 

Curiosity Channel (channel 185),  

History Channel (channel 186).  

“Spanning kids, movies, music, news, lifestyle, sport and more, DStv Compact is already an excellent viewing experience, and the five new channels and extra concurrent stream add even more value for customers. DStv has confirmed that it will again offer discounted rates to decoder customers who want to lock in their price by paying in advance for 24 months,” highlighted MultiChoice.

DStv Compact is not the only package set to receive additional channels from 1st April. On this front, MultiChoice noted that, “DStv Family, DStv Access, and DStv EasyView customers will also enjoy extra channels.”
