Followed by the launch in Bahrain (May) integration through local mobile operators in Kuwait has been deployed in June currently being tested for a full launch as soon as Ramadan is completed in July. The most common means of payment for Mavshacks target group in the Middle East are through mobile phones where the subscribers mainly buy day-passes. In the business model of Mavshack integration with local mobile operators is essential. For the two last periods Mavshack has intentionally focused on integration with mobile operators in Bahrain and Kuwait in addition to content management of the media platform. There has been no major marketing campaign executed before a verification of the integration with mobile operators has been received. Consequently the number of new subscribers is lower then in previous periods. Despite the low number of new subscribers and lower sold subscriptions in the later part of the second quarter the total of sold subscriptions exceeds the first quarter by 28% or 75 000 sold subscriptions of which over 5 000 is related to the launch in Bahrain. Subsequent to the launch in Kuwait the next launch is aimed for Saudi Arabia during the later part of quarter three (3) 2016.
