New Zealand 1st for Satellite Media & South Pacific Pictures

New Zealand first for Satellite Media and South Pacific Pictures

In a New Zealand first, Satellite Media and South Pacific Pictures have debuted new technology to give Shortland Street fans the chance to buy last week’s hugely popular feature-length episode via Facebook.

The episode which screened on Monday, July 18th, attracted an audience of 834,000. Satellite Media, adopting a new innovation from Facebook, have given Shortland Street fans worldwide the ability to buy the feature-length episode from the Shortland Street fan page, just one week after broadcast. This innovation was introduced on Facebook only two weeks ago.

With a current fan base of over 215,000 on Facebook, the Shortland Street fan page will give people in New Zealand and across the world the chance to own a small piece of their favourite show.

Fans will be able to purchase Facebook credits using credit card, mobile payment and gift card. These credits will in turn be able to be used to purchase the feature-length episode.

The Facebook application is available on the Shortland Street fan page.
