History

Bongo BD was established in 2013 by Ahad Mohammad and Navidul Huq, and later collaborated with Grameenphone to introduce the Bioscope over-the-top media service in 2016.

In August 2017, the Bioscope live TV and video-on-demand app was launched.

Initially, Bongo BD operated on a subscription revenue model complemented by advertisement income. However, in a response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the platform made all of its content free for users in Bangladesh starting in March 2020. This move garnered substantial success, leading to over 100 million subscribers and an impressive 1 billion monthly views by May of the same year. In July, Bongo BD reintroduced its subscription fees, offering free and premium content. [5]
