Germany is the third country in which Sky is launching the popular streaming stick form factor, leveraging the Roku Powered licensing program. The program is designed to help operators grow their addressable market and reduce customer churn. Under the program, pay TV operators leverage the Roku streaming platform including the Roku OS, Roku Channel Store, and low-cost streaming players to deliver live TV and on-demand services to their customers.

The Sky Ticket TV Stick and other Roku Powered streaming devices will be on display during IBC 2018 in Amsterdam, between 14-18 September.
