Atresplayer[2] (formerly Atresplayer Premium) is a Spanish paid video-on-demand over-the-top streaming service of Atresmedia. It is marketed outside Spain as Atresplayer Internacional.[3]

History and description

[edit | edit source]

The paid suscription was launched in Spain on 8 September 2019.[4] The first original series released on the platform was El Nudo.[4] Besides the regular services offered by the ad-supported Atresplayer (catch-up service and some series), Atresplayer Premium early offered three main types of programming: Premium Exclusivo (full releases before free-to-air broadcasting), Premium Preestreno (series releasing a week before free-to-air broadcasting), and exclusive programming.[5]

In December of 2021, Atresplayer had over 600,000 subscribers.[5]

Unlike its rival paid suscription, Mitele Plus (initially betting on football/sport as a main business line while leasing exclusive content rights in Spain to Amazon Prime Video),[6][4] Atresplayer Premium restricted its offer to streaming original programming.[4] It was available outside Spain in Latin America, the United States, Canada, and Mexico under the "Paquete Premium Internacional" subscription mode.[7] There is, however, geo-blocked content.[7]

Since Atresplayer Premium's launch, much of the Atresmedia original programming has been first released on the platform, including series such as La valla, Veneno, #Luimelia, Toy Boy, or Perdida.

Atresmedia set a 5 July 2023 date for the renaming of 'Atresplayer Premium' into 'Atresplayer', merging AVOD and PVOD products under the same brandname.[8]

In December 2024, TelevisaUnivision and Atresmedia announced an agreement for the launch of Vix in Spain through Atresplayer starting in January 2025.[9]
