3 Screen Solutions (3SS) said Canadian telco Telus has launched its Telus TV+ entertainment platform on Samsung and LG smart TVs, following on from the April 2025 rollout of Fire TV devices.
According to 3SS, Telus TV+ brings super-aggregated viewing across live TV and streaming, with a flagship Stream+ tier that includes Netflix, Prime Video and Disney+, as well as over 50 free ad supported streaming (FAST) channels delivered in partnership with Amagi. The service is built on the 3SS 3Ready platform.
Telus is said to serve over 1.3 million households with its linear and streaming services.
Tim Fell, vice president, network technology and services devOps at Telus, said: “Our expansion now to Fire TV, Samsung and LG smart TVs demonstrates the continued flexibility and scalability of the 3Ready platform. With Telus TV+, we’re setting a new benchmark for super-aggregated entertainment. 3SS continues to be a key partner on that journey, accelerating and simplifying the delivery of our BYOD strategy.”
Telus and 3SShave been collaborating since 2023, with the launch of the Telus TV+ service on Android set-top boxes.
Kai-Christian Borchers, managing director at 3SS, commented: “Telus is one of the most innovative telcos in the world. Through its commitment to delivering exceptional choice and standout services, Telus continues to offer a highly engaging TV platform that helps defend against cord-cutting. We’re proud to support the expansion of Telus TV+ with 3Ready across more devices and to help provide an outstanding viewing experience for Telus customers.”
