Why is the Mfc digital Membership so expensive?

People buy it to support the club and watch Kayo.

Times are tough.

I've heard it's cheaper for other clubs.

I guess MFC is testing the water. If people are prepared to pay more then MFC will make more profit. I'm not sure many people are 'shopping around' and discussing the price with other clubs' supporters.

Are you sure?

Kayo upped its monthly price recently so I suspect they all went up.

As I recall last year most clubs were within $20 or so of each other but I could be wrong.

When you pull it apart they're just selling you Kayo so I suppose some clubs may put on a higher mark up

Cbf looking at every club, but searched 8 of them and they’re all $350, same as us. 

Previously they were priced separately, from memory last season GWS’ was comfortably the cheapest. My understanding for this season is that they’re all the same pricing across all 18 clubs; admittedly, I’ve not researched this though. 

There used to be really good deals available for digital club memberships that included Kayo. Last season I ditched my usual Kayo subscription for a Demons Digital Membership. I saved $100 and helped out the Dees. Seems that Kayo tightened this 'loophole' so cheaper Kayo is no longer available via club digital memberships.

Thanks for that.

I thought the Lions was cheaper but I could indeed have been wrong.

For what it's worth even with the price increase Kayo is still pretty good value

 

I share the cost of mine with my next door neighbor.

 

I don't know if they have any proximity codes to stop this sort of thing but as of the end of last year, my neighbor could still log into my account. I don't know someone can log into another account in a location a fair way from another's.

Thankfully my neighbor is a league fan and our viewing never crashes.

Giving extra money to Mr Murdoch doesn't fill me with cheer.

No apologies to any fans of him.😀

In addition to Kayo what else are you getting? I’ve never heard of digital memberships before.

I think I'll go around kayo and get a digital Membership from the Mfc.

I used to have an interstate Ms bit let it lapse due to financial pressure.

I think I'll get it again just to support the club even if I don't get to any games.

It's not really that much.

 

think you'll find murdoch co mandated a standard price for the digital membership across all clubs from 2025 onwards

No geo restrictions at present. Only a limit on screens at any one time.

Murdoch sold Foxtel (including Kayo) to Dazn last month. I
