Streaming platform VETO has added the 2026 Billie Jean King Cup to its live sports lineup, securing exclusive over‑the‑top rights for the tournament.
VETO, a digital streaming service focused on live sports, announced that it has secured exclusive over‑the‑top (OTT) rights for the Billie Jean King Cup scheduled for 2026. The deal expands VETO's portfolio, which already includes several high‑profile international sporting events. By obtaining sole streaming rights, VETO will be the only platform offering live coverage of the women's team tennis championship worldwide.
The Billie Jean King Cup, the premier international competition for women's national tennis teams, will return in 2026 with a revamped format and a larger pool of participating nations. VETO plans to broadcast all matches in high definition, accompanied by interactive features such as real‑time statistics and multi‑camera angles.
Industry analysts view the acquisition as a strategic move to strengthen VETO's position in the competitive OTT market, where exclusive sports content remains a key driver of subscriber growth. The platform expects the partnership to attract tennis fans across India and abroad, further diversifying its audience base.
VETO has not disclosed the financial terms of the agreement, but the company indicated that the rights will be leveraged across its web and mobile applications, as well as through partner set‑top boxes. The service aims to launch a dedicated Billie Jean King Cup channel ahead of the tournament's opening round.
The announcement comes as the global sports broadcasting landscape continues to shift toward digital platforms, with more fans opting for on‑demand and live streaming options over traditional television.
