Singtel brings FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ excitement to all this November

Applies advanced 5G network slicing technology to enhance the live viewing experience of all sports fans.

\n

Singapore, 30 October 2022 - Singtel has secured the broadcast rights to bring the world's mostwatched football event, the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™, to fans in Singapore. Singtel will offer comprehensive live coverage of all 64 matches in full high definition through Singtel TV and CAST, its video streaming app, for customers to indulge in non-stop football action from 21 November to 18 December 2022.

\n

In an exclusive first for the screening of the World Cup in Singapore, Singtel will be applying network slicing technology for subscribers of its video apps, CAST and Singtel TV GO. Singtel 5G subscribers will enjoy dedicated capacity for video streams via Singtel's 5G SA network which has since achieved nationwide coverage. With network slicing on the Singtel 5G standalone network, football fans can experience the most stable and superior viewing experience even in high-traffic areas. Whether at home with Singapore's number one fibre broadband network or on the go, Singtel subscribers can enjoy seamless streaming of the World Cup and not miss a single moment of the exciting action.

Ms Anna Yip, Chief Executive Officer, Consumer Singapore, Singtel, said, "Since we first brought the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ to Singapore, Singtel has sought to enhance the viewing experience of our customers, offering more ways to catch the football action, across our Singtel TV, Singtel TV GO and CAST apps. We are pleased to work with our broadcast partners to bring the action to our football fans over the 28 days. Our customers can expect a seamless and high-quality viewing experience powered by our ultra-fast broadband and 5G network, this time further boosted by network slicing technology, to deliver enhanced connectivity, speed, and capacity. With this year's World Cup held in Qatar, we believe the favourable time difference will bring even more football fans together to share in the excitement."

\n

Customers who wish to watch just the World Cup matches, can sign up for the early bird promotion of S$98, valid until 6 November 2022 or at the regular price of S$118 thereafter.
