What Alma TV does

Alma TV, commercially operating as almaPLUS, is a Kazakhstani telecommunications operator headquartered in Almaty that provides fixed-line home internet, mobile internet, digital cable television, satellite television, and telephony services to residential and business customers across Kazakhstan. The company was founded in 1996 and has operated for approximately 30 years, currently serving 20+ cities including Almaty, Astana, Shymkent, Karaganda, Pavlodar, and Aktobe, with 1,001–5,000 employees. Its core product is a bundled internet-plus-TV offering sold under the asyl tariff family (100/300/500 Mbps tiers at ₸7,690–₸8,690 per month, each including 150+ TV channels), complemented by satellite TV for areas outside cable reach and the almaTV online cinema platform that aggregates six third-party streaming providers (Premier, Qazaqsha, birge tv, Медиа Телеком, START, WINK) behind a single 7-day-free-trial gateway.

The company runs its own last-mile network infrastructure with physical trade sales offices distributed across its footprint, plus mobile applications on iOS, Android, and Huawei App Gallery, an online self-service portal (cabinet.almatv.kz), and a website (alma.plus) for sign-up, billing, and support. The recent Shanyraq combined tariffs (June 2026) extend the bundle into mobile services, and the Sim + Combo offering cross-sells mobile SIMs into the broadband base. The almaPLUS superAPP consolidates account management, service activation, and streaming access in a single client.

The revenue model is subscription-recurring across three streams: monthly internet subscriptions, monthly cable/satellite TV subscriptions, and almaTV streaming subscriptions. GTM is direct-to-consumer with online signup, field sales offices, and a customer support line. The company is privately held with no disclosed ownership, parent company, or institutional investors in the input data, and no audited revenue, ARPU, or subscriber count is publicly available.

Direct peers

• Kazakhtelecom: Kazakhstan's state-owned incumbent telecom operator offering fixed-line internet, cable TV, and mobile (via Altel). Most directly comparable peer given overlapping bundled internet + TV + mobile offerings across Kazakhstan, but with significantly larger scale and state backing.
• Beeline Kazakhstan (KaR-Tel): VEON subsidiary providing mobile, fixed broadband, and TV services across Kazakhstan. Directly competes in the same bundled connectivity space, including home internet and entertainment offerings, with comparable target customers (residential and SMB).
• Kcell: Leading Kazakhstani mobile operator offering voice, mobile data, and increasingly fixed/home connectivity. Comparable as a quad-play connectivity competitor in Kazakhstan with overlapping residential and business customer base.
• Transtelecom: Kazakhstan-based telecom operator providing internet, TV, and connectivity services to residential and enterprise customers. Comparable as a domestic operator in the same bundled connectivity category, though with a stronger B2B tilt.
• Tele2 Kazakhstan: Kazakhstan mobile operator (part of NEWTEL/Altel group) offering wireless voice and data services. Competes for the same residential connectivity wallet, particularly against Alma TV's Sim + Combo mobile offering.
• Altel: Kazakhstani 4G/5G mobile operator and Kazakhtelecom subsidiary. Comparable as a Kazakhstani mobile + fixed-wireless access competitor targeting the same residential customer base, especially in regions where fixed-line rollout is limited.

Regional players

• Rostelecom: Russia's largest fixed-line telecom operator with extensive cable TV, broadband, and OTT (WINK) offerings. Comparable business model as a quad-play pay-TV + ISP operator in the CIS region, though geographically focused on Russia.
• ER-Telecom (Dom.ru): Russian cable TV, broadband, and mobile operator under the Dom.ru brand. Directly comparable cable + ISP + mobile business model serving residential customers across Russian regions; relevant CIS benchmark for bundle monetization.

Emerging players

• Megogo: Major CIS-focused OTT video streaming service operating across Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and other CIS markets. Comparable as a streaming aggregation/distribution competitor to Alma TV's almaTV online cinema platform in the same Kazakhstani consumer base.
• ivi: Leading Russian OTT video streaming platform. Comparable as a streaming competitor for Kazakhstani consumers, particularly relevant to Alma TV's online cinema aggregation strategy and cord-cutting dynamics.
