AIS PLAY Review: Verdict, Cost & Sports Coverage
WhereSports Editorial Desk • Audited October 2026
The Verdict
Our Verdict: AIS PLAY has overtaken TrueVisions as Thailand's number-one football streaming platform, pairing all 380 English Premier League and FA Cup matches (from ฿199/month via its PLAY MONOMAX partnership) with 100% free live coverage of Thai League 1, 2, and 3. Add in the PLAY SPORTS bundle for beIN SPORTS (UEFA Champions League, La Liga, Serie A, Formula 1) and SPOTV (MotoGP, Wimbledon, BWF Badminton), and it covers nearly every major sport in one ecosystem. While the app interface still pushes telco promotions and canceling SMS-billed add-ons requires attention, the sports value for AIS mobile and Fibre3 users is unmatched in Thailand.

In-Depth Platform Analysis & Coverage
AIS PLAY is the flagship live TV and sports streaming platform of Advanced Info Service (AIS), Thailand's largest mobile and fiber broadband operator. Over the 2025/26 and 2026/27 seasons, AIS PLAY completely reshaped Thailand's sports broadcasting market through its strategic partnership with Jasmine International (JAS) and MONOMAX.
For football fans, AIS PLAY now serves as the primary home for both English and domestic Thai football. Through the PLAY MONOMAX package (priced at ฿199/month or ฿1,999/year for AIS mobile and Fibre3 customers, and ฿299/month standard), subscribers get live 1080p HD streams of all 380 English Premier League matches and the Emirates FA Cup with both Thai and English commentary tracks. Even better for local supporters, AIS and the Football Association of Thailand made every division of domestic football (Thai League 1, Thai League 2, Thai League 3, the Chang FA Cup, and the Revo Cup) completely free to stream on AIS PLAY without a paid package.
Beyond English and Thai football, AIS PLAY offers the PLAY SPORTS add-on (฿259/month), which aggregates Thailand's premier international sports networks into one channel guide. That package includes beIN SPORTS 1, 2, and 3 (carrying the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1, Formula 1, Australian Open, and Roland-Garros), SPOTV 1 and 2 (carrying MotoGP, Wimbledon, US Open tennis, and BWF World Tour badminton), Golf Channel Thailand, MUTV, Real Madrid TV, live NBA games, and the German Bundesliga (all 9 matches per round through the 2026/27 cycle).
