Current subscribers need not worry immediately—Showmax services will continue without interruption for now. Users can still enjoy their favorite content, with no immediate action required on their part.

The company assured customers that they are a top priority and that a transition plan will be rolled out well in advance, including clear timelines and instructions for account holders when the service eventually ends.

Despite Showmax’s impending closure, MultiChoice emphasized that streaming remains a core focus. The company plans to continue investing in premium content, technological innovations, and strategic partnerships to enhance the digital entertainment experience.

For now, subscribers in Kenya can continue streaming, but the platform’s sunset is officially on the horizon.
