If you’re a sports enthusiast, you have to get a Kayo Sports subscription. If you’re unsure about why let us enlighten you… Here’s everything you need to know about Kayo.
What is Kayo?
Kayo is an Australian streaming service but unlike the vast selection of other video streaming services, such as Netflix or Stan, Kayo Sports, as its name suggests, is dedicated solely to streaming sports content. With a Kayo subscription, you’ll be able to watch a huge range of different sports live and on-demand.
Kayo Sports is owned by Streamotion (which itself is a wholly owned subsidiary of Foxtel) which is also responsible for the Binge streaming service. Kayo Sports is the result of an idea dreamt up in 2018 when Foxtel was considering launching an over-the-top sports streaming service. By the end of 2018, Foxtel had green-lit the idea and the quest to secure exclusive rights to sporting content began.
Initially known as Project Martian internally, the name Kayo Sports was decided upon on the 5th of November 2018, and at the same time, the sports streaming service launched in beta format. Kayo was officially launched to the Australian public though on the 28th of November 2018.
As of May 2021, Kayo Sports has in excess of 1 million total subscribers in Australia (a combination of free trial users and paying subscribers).
How much is Kayo Sports?
Kayo Sports has three monthly subscription plans to choose from: One, Basic and Premium.
- One costs $25 a month and lets you watch Kayo content on 1 screen at a time.
- Basic costs $27.50 a month and allows users to watch Kayo content on up to 2 screens at a time.
- Premium costs $35 a month but lets users watch Kayo content on up to three screens at a time.
All Kayo Sports subscription plans, One, Basic and Premium, give users the option to stream in either High Definition or Standard Definition.
Kayo Sports free trial
Kayo Sports offers all new users the chance to try the service for free, with a 14-day free trial. You will automatically be charged for an ongoing subscription to Kayo Sports if you don’t cancel during the 14-day free trial period.
