Under the deal, VIVA Kuwait customers are eligible for a one-month free trial to WAVO when they sign up by texting the word ‘WAVO’ to 55664 and follow the instructions on their phone. After the one-month free trial has expired customers will automatically remain subscribed to WAVO for KD3 a month unless they opt out.

Available on mobile devices and tablets (iOS/Android), Samsung and LG Smart TVs, PCs and laptops through the WAVO app, website – wavo.com, and Chromecast, WAVO combines a unique blend of live and On Demand TV, including English and Arabic family and kids shows, hit TV series, blockbuster movies and sports, which can be viewed anytime, anywhere, with no annual contract.

Augmented by our customers’ trust in us, VIVA in cooperation with OSN strives to create innovative solutions that address the needs of customers.”
