“Rostelecom Armenia” launches “Wink”
video service
“Rostelecom
Armenia” is ending 2022 with the launch of an exclusive product, bringing the
“Wink” video service to the Armenian market, which combines the functionality
of an online cinema and interactive TV. “Wink” is developing dynamically in
Russia and entered the top 3 largest online cinemas by the number of viewers in
2022.
Today, the library of
“Wink” in Armenia has more than 50,000 films, episodes of TV series and
cartoons, and it is constantly being replenished. The service also provides
concerts, documentaries, karaoke, educational and entertaining video content of
bloggers. “Wink” users will have access to 130 TV channels (ethereal and
thematic), including more than 40 Armenian ones.
The “Wink” video
service is available on any device with a video screen and in any place where
there is Internet (from any provider). Content can be watched on a TV screen
with Smart TV, on smartphones and tablets with a mobile application, on laptops
and computers on the wink.am video portal. Thus, users get a unique opportunity
to easily and conveniently receive high-quality content, regardless of location
and without additional equipment. Up to five devices can be linked to one
account, that is, gadgets of all family members at the same time.
“Wink
enters” the Armenian market with “Wink”, “Wink+more.tv” and “Wink 5-in-1”
tariff packages starting from AMD 2500 per month. And a special offer - connecting the "Wink 5-in-1" package,
the first 30 days of services will be available for only 1 AMD. This package
combines top content from five popular Russian online cinemas, and the price is
significantly lower than signing up for each of them separately.
“I
am elated and proud to present our initiative, which I consider extremely
important and innovative in terms of the development of digital services in
Armenia. Constantly introducing innovative solutions, as well as taking into
account the dynamic transition of the modern world to digital solutions, today “Rostelecom
Armenia” presents a unique “Wink” video service to Armenian users. First of all, “Wink” provides interesting and high-quality content: tens
of thousands of rated films and series, as well as TV channels, karaoke and
other additional services, which makes the video service interesting for every
family member. We are launching “Wink” in the Armenian market with affordable
price packages starting from AMD 2500 per month. We believe that “Wink”, due to its advantages and innovative
capabilities, will become a revolutionary proposal in the Armenian market,
completely changing the perception of online cinemas and interactive TV”, said
Hayk Faramazyan, CEO of “Rostelecom Armenia”.
“We are pleased that
Rostelecom's flagship and fast-growing digital product has entered a new
prospective market and will operate in another country for the first time. The “Wink”
video service is flexible and can adapt to each user, so it will be convenient
and easy for Armenian subscribers to spend their leisure time with it. We take
a very responsible approach to the development of our content library, paying
special attention to what the younger generation consumes. It is no coincidence
that cartoons and films for children and teenagers are always in the top views.
But, of course, we have films and series for all tastes and age groups. It’s no secret that a lot of cool specialists
with Armenian roots work in the Russian film serial industry, and their best
projects are also presented in “Wink”, said Anton Volodkin, General Director of
development for the “Wink” video service at Rostelecom’s corporate center.
“Rostelecom”
introduced the “Wink” brand in 2018 by launching a new multimedia platform
created by IT developers of the group of companies. This became a fundamentally new stage in the development of IPTV and
online cinema services, which the company had previously provided for a number
of years.
The Wink video
service provides the maximum set of additional services, including Watch
Control (pause live broadcast, rewind, return to the beginning of the program,
archive the programs), Parental Control (restriction of content depending on
age), Multiscreen (you can connect to one account up to 5 devices) and others.
You can download your favorite series and movie in advance and watch it later
even offline.
