After launching its beta version earlier this month, Kayo Sports has officially launched in Australia, bringing with it a whole new way to experience televised sports.
The brainchild of Foxtel chief executive Patrick Delany, Kayo Sports intends to give sports fans the chance to stream more than 50 sports with live and on-demand options.
With HD streaming, the ability to watch up to four screens at once, and access to almost any local and international sports you can dream of, Kayo has launched just in time for what is shaping up to be one of the greatest summers of sports ever.
As Media Week reports, former amaysim MD and CEO Julian Ogrin explains that the new service is set to completely change the way that Aussies view sport.
“Kayo will provide a new way for Australians to experience sport, with the biggest Aussie sports and the best from overseas, plus game-changing features,” Ogrin explained.
“Kayo is for people who just want sport, streamed on their terms. They want to watch what they want, when they want, how they want.”

“We threw out the rulebook and built a service that gives fans exactly that: only sports streamed, a simple sign-up process, and a personalised experience.”
“We launched Kayo earlier this month in beta form to test the service with real customers, in real conditions, Ogrin continued. “We have a customer-centric mentality, and this has allowed us to listen to their feedback and use these insights to continually enhance the product.”
“Kayo has been made for Aussie sports fans, and we can’t wait for them to jump in and try it for themselves.”
Having officially launched today, the Kayo Sports app is now available for download, with access packages starting from $25 a month.
