Replay TV: What's Changing Starting November 2, 2026
Starting November 2, 2026, new ad formats will appear when viewers watch certain programs on Replay. This change affects all Swiss TV providers, including netplus.
Why the change? Which channels are affected? And how can you continue to enjoy your shows without ads on Replay? SEIC explains everything.
Why are there new ads on Replay TV?
With Replay TV, you can watch your favorite shows up to 7 days after they air.
To maintain this service without raising subscription prices, Swiss TV providers are introducing new advertising formats.
Specifically, starting November 2, 2026, ads may appear while viewers are watching certain programs on Replay or that have been recorded.
Live TV remains unchanged, as does the ability to fast-forward during non-commercial breaks.
What, specifically, is changing?
Three new ad formats may appear on the relevant channels:
- At the start of the program: A short commercial may air before your show begins.
- When fast-forwarding: If you fast-forward during a commercial break, a Replay-specific ad may appear.
- During a commercial break: a still advertisement may appear on your screen.
These changes apply only to certain TV channels and do not affect how live TV works.
