VOD365 teams with Moonbug

Moonbug’s Little Baby Bum

UK OTT channel provider VOD365 has signed a content deal with kids’ IP firm Moonbug, under which the latter’s premium YouTube programming brands will appear on VOD365’s kids entertainment channel Ketchup TV.

VOD365 provides branded OTT TV channels via Freeview, YouView, Freesat, mobile devices and smart TVs.

Under the agreement with Moonbug, Ketchup TV viewers will be able to watch titles including Gecko’s Garage, Morphle and Go Buster on the channel. Ketchup TV already airs Moonbug’s Little Baby Bum.

“The new programmes are a welcome addition to the Ketchup family and already have a proven track record, with several titles having built up impressive followings on YouTube. Little Baby Bum has already proved a huge hit on Ketchup TV,” said VOD365 founder and CEO Paul Coster.

In July, VOD365 struck a deal with production giant Endemol Shine Group, through which Endemol is providing 300 hours of programming to Ketchup TV and documentary net Planet Knowledge.
