Even if you are a Rostelecom subscriber and have a subscription to Interactive TV, you will still need to buy a package with a subscription to the channels! Otherwise, you won’t be able to watch anything on this site... That’s what they told me on the Rostelecom hotline
Answer

Payment issue

If the portal is accessible to everyone and any user can register, does this mean that Zabava is free for everyone? In fact, no, the service is free only for Rostelecom subscribers who already have a connected interactive television package. For them, “Fun” is like one of the extensions, a free option. If the user does not have such a package, then he can select any tariff or package in his personal account, read the terms and conditions and pay directly from there with any bank card.

The cost depends on the contents of the package and the region of residence of the user. Current tariffs can be found on the Rostelecom or Zabava website.

Who should pay for the Fun?

People who do not have connected interactive TV packages will have to pay for the service. You can choose the appropriate option on the portal, immediately familiarize yourself with the price, and then deposit funds.

Rostelecom TV subscribers can use Zabava for free. The service is provided as a basic add-on for all operator packages.

In fact, you still have to pay for the company’s services. The only difference is that the company’s clients have already deposited funds, and the rest are yet to do so. The cost of packages depends on the region, you can find it on the portal.

Several years ago, the Zabava.ru portal appeared on the Internet, where Rostelecom provided the opportunity to watch TV programs for free without connecting to a set-top box. In addition to it, applications were released for smart TVs, tablets and smartphones. Today the service has changed its name to “Interactive TV”, but its main task remains the same - to provide work.
