Hopster lands on Vodafone Play in Iceland

December 17, 2015

Hopster, the service that helps kids learn through content, has signed a carriage deal with Vodafone Iceland, which will see the service join the mobile and IPTV provider’s SVoD service – Vodafone PLAY.
Hopster is now available in all three Vodafone PLAY subscriptions across Iceland – Vodafone PLAY, Vodafone PLAY M and Vodafone PLAY L – and will be bringing hundreds of local-language episodes of its trademark hand-picked shows to kids all over the country.
The partnership between Vodafone Iceland and Hopster means that kids in Iceland will now be able to enjoy some of the most popular preschool programmes in their native language. They will have access to hit shows such as Thomas & Friends, Pingu, Bob the Builder in Icelandic, in addition to some popular national nursery rhymes, all supporting Hopster’s special early years’ curriculum.

Nick Walters, founder and CEO at Hopster says: “We’re really excited to be working with Vodafone Iceland. Their approach ties in nicely with what we believe in at Hopster, which is helping kids to learn through the shows they love, in a safe and ad-free environment that’s built just for them. We look forward to introducing Hopster to children and parents across Iceland, and feel it’s important they enjoy the app to the fullest without any language barriers.”
