In 2017 Telco’s will leave millions on the table by not claiming affiliate revenues that have been assigned to them by OTT video providers.
It’s well understood that the leading OTT video providers such as Google Play, iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, Netflix etc. are generating millions by delivering their video content over Telco’s fixed and wireless networks. The table below courtesy of Statista provide a flavour of the size of revenues that will be generated by VoD providers across various markets in 2017.
What’s not so well understood is that many of the leading OTT Video providers have Affiliate Programs in place specifically designed to provide a revenue share on content rented or sold on their behalf. Apple for eg. pay 7% on all movies rented and purchased with a credit or debit card on iTunes, and all the Telco has to do is claim it. By not claiming these affiliate revenues Telco’s are; depending on the size of the market ignoring sometimes millions in revenue that’s rightfully their’s.
How exactly can Telco’s claim this revenue?
