Freebie TV

What Freebie TV does

Freebie TV is a US-based, ad-supported video streaming service operated by Kamino Trade Federation, Inc., headquartered in Austin, Texas. The platform provides both video-on-demand (movies and television shows) and live TV feeds — including news, lifestyle, entertainment, music concerts, poker tournaments, and radio — to US consumers at no cost, with no subscription or credit card required. Distribution is delivered via native applications on five major connected-TV platforms (Roku, Apple TV, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV, Vizio) in addition to direct web streaming at freebie.tv.

The underlying technology stack is a standard online video streaming platform with native CTV and mobile applications, supported by a data collection layer that uses cookies, web beacons, HTML5 local storage, and log data to capture device identifiers, geo-location, and viewing behavior. This data layer powers content personalization and targeted advertising through partnerships with ad-technology vendors. Content supply is sourced entirely through licensing agreements with unnamed content partners, and catalog availability windows are explicitly contract-dependent, leading to recurring content expiration.

The business model is 100% advertising-revenue with no premium or paid tier. Freebie TV employs a product-led growth motion — zero-friction, free access through app stores and the web — and positions itself for general consumers seeking free entertainment, cord-cutters, and budget-conscious viewers. The company is privately held, was founded in 2018, and operates with an 11–50 employee footprint, with no disclosed funding history, ownership beyond the corporate parent, or enterprise customers.
