CSG International’s Ascendon digital services platform has been chosen to power JUKE, a new entertainment portal from Media-Saturn Germany, a large European electronics retailer. 

Through the introduction of JUKE, CSG Ascendon will enable the strategic expansion of digital business for the entertainment provider. Together, CSG and Media-Saturn Germany have enabled the retailer to extend its physical store experience, expand revenue sources and build on its brand to become a trusted digital provider.

Media-Saturn’s new JUKE service includes a comprehensive range of products with more than 30 million songs, more than 15,000 movies and TV series, 1.5 million e-books, as well as 2,400 PC games and PC software applications, launched by using free apps or via the JUKE website. CSG Ascendon brings video and music together in one service, available anytime and anywhere with a single login across smartphone, tablet, PC/notebook, smart TV or set-top boxes.

“Media-Saturn is focused on not only delivering a robust catalogue of services, but also offering its customers a cutting-edge, personalised experience. This combination accelerates any digital content strategy,” said Kent Steffen, president of digital services at CSG International. “While many consumer brands are extending their core business to become digital service providers, we find that they are often challenged by their existing infrastructure. We are proud to help companies like Media-Saturn transform their systems and services through CSG Ascendon.”
