MTN partners with Disney to unveil exclusive mobile plan for Disney+ streaming service
MTN and Disney+, the streaming service from The Walt Disney Company, have joined forces in conjunction with the launch of a Mobile Plan for Disney+ in South Africa. MTN will offer a bundle to its customers who sign up for a Disney+ Mobile Plan at the cost of R49.
Paying for that bundle with their airtime or adding it to their bill, they will get 500MB of free streaming data per month. MTN will also offer its customers a Disney+ mobile entertainment pass that will include 2GB of streaming data for R59 per month.
Plans are in development for further Disney+ offers for MTN customers.
The Disney+ Mobile Plan with MTN will offer viewers the same access to Disney+’s vast catalogue of content from the streamer’s iconic brands of Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and National Geographic, as well as general entertainment from Star.
Using mobile phones and tablets, subscribers will have access to features such as SD data-saver streaming, as well as including the feature for parents to set kids' profiles to access age-appropriate content.

By streaming Disney+ on South Africa's top mobile network, we will offer our customers the ultimate experience of enjoying their favourite series and movies, both old and new.
