The latest movements carried out by companies such as Lowi or Pepephone arouse the interest of O2 customers, who wonder if at some point it will be possible to contract platforms such as Netflix or Prime through the operator.
Most of the mobile operators They have relied on streaming platforms to offer their subscribers new television options. Many of them allow us to hire Netflix, Max or Amazon Prime directly from their respective applications and, in some cases, with prices that are more attractive than what we would find if we chose to subscribe to them independently.
Although initially the companies reserved this possibility only for those users who had more premium ratesas an incentive to contract higher rates, the current reality is quite different and most of them allow you to add these services also in their cheapest rates, as Lowi demonstrated yesterday by expanding its offer with new plans with Netflix. However, this has not been the only one. And currently we can find a wide catalog of possibilities for integrate Netflix bill or Prime Video directly on our operator’s bill. But what about O2?
An x-ray of the current market
It has been a user of Telefónica’s second brand who has addressed the company during the last few hours asking if there is any plan so that, in the short or medium term, the company’s customers can enjoy this option. From O2, however, they have confirmed that currently they don’t have any plan to incorporate this service into your catalogue.

A behavior that draws attention if we take into account that operators such as Pepephone have been offering Netflix to their customers since 2022. An offer that was extended to Amazon Prime and Max, progressively. A situation quite similar to Lowi, which includes a year of Amazon Prime in its Fiber and Mobile rates and which offers the possibility of hire Netflix in several of them.
Larger companies, such as Movistar, Orange or Vodafone, among others, have been betting on TV services for many years to attract a greater number of customers, dedicating significant efforts to this area. And Digi, for its part, has already announced repeatedly that it is working on incorporate your own platform television soon.
O2 and Movistar Plus+
The pressure that companies like those mentioned previously were putting on the market forced O2 to take some steps in this direction. Specifically, he did adding Movistar Plus+, Movistar’s OTT, in the 1GB Fiber and 200 GB Mobile rate, the cost of which amounts to €50.
A movement that demonstrates how O2, indeed, remains attentive to market trends and the decisions made by its main competitors in this regard. Despite this, its subscribers would surely welcome having more flexibility to add more streaming platforms to their product offering and for them to be compatible with a greater number of rates.
