Kinom delivers Full HD streaming on Apple and Android smartphones, on Smart TVs or computers. The platform focuses on local language content with a selection of films and programmes in Uzbek.

“We are proud to contribute to the digitalisation of Uzbekistan – not only through Beeline’s expansion of 4G to every corner of the country, but also with our digital services spanning from entertainment and fintech to enterprise and adtech. KINOM expands our digital portfolio, providing accessible national language entertainment and a best-in-class digital experience, while also supporting the growth of local creative industries,” said Kaan Terzioglu, CEO of VEON Group.

KINOM joins VEON’s portfolio of digital entertainment platforms, alongside Tamasha in Pakistan, which has 18 million monthly active users (MAUs), and Toffee in Bangladesh with 12.3 million MAUs.
