AMC Global Media brings Selekt to Czech Republic, Slovakia
October 15, 2026
A new free streaming service, Selekt Light, is replacing the existing AMC Mikro will give viewers in Czech Republic and Slovakia access to a selection of content from the AMC Global Media portfolio in one place and across devices. Following the successful launch of the Selekt platform in Hungary, this marks another step in its expansion across Central Europe.
Selekt Light will be available free of charge in both countries. The service will support up to five devices, with simultaneous streaming on three of them, whether via iOS or android smartphones. A Czech-language interface will be available to users at launch.
The Selekt Light offering will be refreshed regularly. The service will offer a selection of films and series, ranging from action and comedy to drama, crime and western titles, as well as seasonal holiday movies. Younger viewers will find selected episodes of popular children’s series available on the platform as well.. The service will also feature live sports content from competitions such as the UEFA Nations League, the UEFA Europa League and Conference League, Champions Hockey League and PDC European Tour. Each month, viewers will have access to a curated selection of featured titles from each television brand. This will be complemented by certain local productions, including Come for a ride with Honza Musil.
“With the launch of Selekt Light, we want to offer viewers in the Czech Republic and Slovakia one place where they can find a diverse selection of content from our portfolio and enjoy it whenever they want, on whichever device suits them best. We are taking another important step in the development of Selekt brand in Central Europe,” commented Levente B. Málnay, MD & Executive Vice President of AMC Global Media CE.
The service is built on Applicaster’s Zapp platform. Through its modular architecture, AMC Global Media can manage web, mobile and TV applications through a single solution and roll out Selekt to additional markets more efficiently.
“Our partnership with Applicaster has enabled us from the outset to think of Selekt as a service that is not limited to a single market. One of its key advantages is the ability to extend the same technology solution to additional countries while adapting it to local needs. This scalability is essential to our continued regional growth,” added Csaba Szaniszló, Vice President of Ad Sales and Digital at AMC Global Media CE.
