Showmax and Vision Plus partner to offer customers three months of streaming

Showmax and Vision Plus have partnered to give customers who buy a Vision Plus smart TV three months of Showmax.  

Showmax is a streaming service that bundles the best of African and international entertainment with live sport from SuperSport.
