Telecoming, international monetization tech company, has developed an innovative multi-language feature in all its services addressed to kids in the African market.

This development fosters a better learning experience while playing and consolidates the company SVOD platform in the African digital edutainment industry. Children will be able to change the audio [1] of the most popular characters, at any time and from any device.

All Telecoming services adding this option have the ‘KidSafe Seal’. It is an independent safety certification designed for children-friendly sites that covers online game sites, educational services, mobile apps, tablet devices and other similar online and interactive services. This way, during their summer holidays, African children will be able to continue safely learning with Telecoming contents in the language of their choice.

According to David Murillo, Telecoming Product Director, “this innovative functionality enables us to offer large-scale, impactful educational content among children in the African market. Our edutainment offer already has a remarkable uptake, favouring diversity and multicultural immersion at the same time. In addition, we guarantee parents a safe digital environment for their children”, states Murillo.
