Corporate sponsorship
Sponsor a film. Share tickets. Reach viewers.
Verified companies buy viewing ticket packs for films that welcome sponsors. Filmmakers approve each deal. Viewers redeem a code and watch under the same rental rules.
How sponsorship works
-
Register your company
Create a business account with your legal name, CAC details, and an authorised representative. Abegwatch reviews it before you can apply.
-
Apply on a film
Open a film that accepts sponsors, choose how many tickets you need, and send your brand message for the filmmaker to review.
-
Pay for the pack
When the filmmaker approves, pay the ticket price through Paystack. Abegwatch issues the codes and keeps 20%. The filmmaker receives 80%.
-
Allocate and redeem
Share codes with your audience. A signed-in viewer redeems one code for one rental of that film. The watch window is the film plus one hour, on one screen.
For filmmakers
On a film’s manage page you can open sponsorship, set a ticket price, cap applications, and review each request. You decide who sponsors your work.
For viewers
If someone gave you a code, redeem it on the ticket page while signed in. You then watch that film the same way as a paid rental. Some films may still ask for a viewer identity check.
The full rules sit in the Terms.
