In less than eight months from entering the Saudi market,Zain SA avails subscribers with services on more than 800 interactive channels

Zain Saudi Arabia has announced its expansion within the framework of content and interactive services to incorporate more than 500 media organizations that offer services to Zain Saudi Arabia’s subscribers, in addition to the tens of others that provide information and image content by subscribing to the dedicated short numbers.   The dedicated short numbers also include several governmental and private sector entities, such as TV and radio channels, the press and others.  The sources of information provided by these parties exceed 800 channels in addition to varied data and information.

Engineer Ismail Fikri, operational CEO at Zain Saudi Arabia, said this achievement comes at a time when Zain Saudi Arabia seeks to expand the extent of all its services, as well as its desire to provide its subscribers with the opportunity to easily benefit from all that is new in the world of communications.  It is an undisputed fact that interactive and content services are witnessing rapid growth and spread within the Saudi market due to the variety of information it offers related to all aspects of life such as medical, educational, travel, leisure and governmental services.

Fikri also added that interactive and content services have become vital in our times as they reduce time and effort in obtaining information needed by the customers in their daily lives, which also motivated Zain Saudi Arabia to expand its services within this framework, within the fastest time possible and at the highest quality.

The operational CEO at Zain Saudi Arabia affirmed that the company raced against time and reached this number in record speed, not exceeding eight months from entering the Saudi market, which confirms Zain Saudi Arabia’s perseverance to satisfy its subscribers and allow them to enjoy all the offered services.  Furthermore, the company will not stop at this number and still continues to sign new agreements to include the largest possible number of entities that provide these services.

Dependence on interactive services has become the mark of today’s age in mobile telephone usage.  Users can access information at their fingertips. They can access religious and sports news, follow up on events and flip through the daily press, have access to tourism, leisure, and cultural information and participate in competitions through the telephone by punching the related dedicated short numbers.
