Football fans in Malaysia now have a clearer picture of how they can watch the FIFA World Cup 2026 through Unifi TV. Telekom Malaysia has officially revealed the pricing and availability details for its World Cup viewing passes, giving viewers access to all 104 matches live through three dedicated World Cup channels.
he pricing starts from RM50 for existing Unifi TV customers, making it one of the more affordable ways for local football fans to follow the full tournament from start to finish. For those who do not already subscribe to Unifi TV, the pass will also be available at a slightly higher price.
This announcement follows the earlier confirmation that both RTM and Unifi TV will serve as official broadcasters for the tournament in Malaysia. RTM will provide selected free-to-air matches, while Unifi TV will be the main option for viewers who want complete coverage of every fixture.
Full World Cup Coverage From RM50
Unifi TV is offering two main pricing tiers for the FIFA World Cup 2026 season pass. Existing Unifi TV customers can purchase the full tournament pass for RM50, while non-Unifi TV users can subscribe for RM60.
The season pass will be available from 11 June to 10 July 2026. During this period, subscribers will get access to the dedicated World Cup channels, covering all 104 matches live.
This is useful for fans who do not want to rely only on selected free-to-air matches. With the tournament expanding and featuring more matches than previous editions, full access will be important for those who want to follow not only the major teams, but also group-stage surprises, knockout drama, and late-night matches that may not always be shown on free TV.
More Than Just World Cup Channels
Interestingly, the World Cup pass does not only include tournament coverage. According to Unifi TV, subscribers will also receive access to its catalogue of more than 70 premium channels during the pass period.
These include entertainment, movie, sports, and lifestyle channels such as HBO, Cinemax, AXN, beIN SPORTS, SPOTV, tvN Movies, and others.
That makes the package more appealing for households where not everyone may be watching football every day. While football fans get full tournament access, other family members can still enjoy premium entertainment channels during the subscription window.
For casual viewers, this added channel access may help justify the pass even if they are mainly planning to watch the biggest matches only.
Daily Pass Option for Selected Matches
Not everyone wants to watch every match. Some viewers may only be interested in Malaysia-time friendly fixtures, weekend games, favourite teams, or the knockout rounds.
For that group, Unifi TV will also offer a RM20 daily pass starting from 12 June 2026.
This option is useful for viewers who only want to tune in for specific matches without committing to the full season pass. However, for anyone planning to watch more than a few days of games, the full pass will likely make more sense financially.
The daily pass gives flexibility, while the season pass gives better overall value.
Available Across Smart TVs, Mobile Devices, Tablets, and Web Browsers
Unifi TV says viewers will be able to watch the tournament in high definition across multiple devices. This includes Smart TVs, smartphones, tablets, and web browsers through the Unifi TV platform.
That device flexibility is important because World Cup matches are not always watched from the living room. Some viewers may watch late-night games on mobile, follow matches while travelling, or switch between TV and browser depending on where they are.
Besides live coverage, Unifi TV will also provide match highlights, full replays, and extra tournament-related content throughout the event.
This is especially useful for Malaysian viewers because match times may not always be convenient. Full replays and highlights allow fans to catch up without needing to stay awake for every fixture.
Commercial Packages for Cafes and Restaurants
TM is also making dedicated commercial packages available for businesses and hospitality customers. This includes restaurants, cafes, and other venues that may want to show matches to customers.
This is a practical move because World Cup viewing is often a shared experience. For many people, watching football at a mamak, cafe, restaurant, or public venue is part of the tournament atmosphere.
Commercial packages are important because business use is different from personal home viewing. Venues showing matches publicly usually need the correct commercial rights, especially for major sporting events.
How Customers Can Subscribe
Customers can purchase the FIFA World Cup 2026 pass through the dedicated promo page on the Unifi website.
Existing Unifi users also have several other subscription options. They can sign up through:
• MyUnifi app
• Unifi Selfcare Portal
• Unifi TV 2.0 app
• Dedicated World Cup 2026 promo page on the Unifi website
This gives existing customers a fairly straightforward path to subscribe without needing to visit a physical TMpoint or contact customer service, assuming everything works smoothly through the app or portal.
Unifi TV Packs for Longer-Term Subscribers
For viewers who are considering Unifi TV beyond the World Cup period, the service currently offers several content packs. These packs are priced differently depending on whether the subscriber is an existing Unifi broadband customer or a standalone user.
The entry-level Star Pack costs RM12 per month for Unifi customers and RM16 per month for non-Unifi users. It includes 36 entertainment and family channels, along with access to the Unifi TV 2.0 companion app.
For sports fans, the Sports Pack is priced at RM30 per month for Unifi customers and RM39 per month for non-Unifi subscribers. This pack includes six premium sports channels, 36 basic channels, and access to beIN SPORTS CONNECT and SPOTV NOW.
The Max Pack follows the same RM30 and RM39 pricing structure, but focuses more on premium entertainment. It includes HBO channels and an HBO Max Standard subscription, making it more suitable for movie and series viewers.
There is also the Build-Your-Own Pack, which allows customers to customise their selection. Subscribers can choose five premium channels and one streaming app, along with 16 free channels. This pack costs RM23 per month for Unifi customers and RM30 per month for non-Unifi users.
Is the World Cup Pass Worth It?
For serious football fans, the RM50 season pass for existing Unifi TV customers looks fairly attractive, especially considering that it includes all 104 matches. Even the RM60 price for non-Unifi TV users is still reasonable for full tournament coverage.
The RM20 daily pass is useful for casual fans, but it may become expensive quickly if used across multiple match days. For example, watching just three separate days would already cost about the same as the full pass for non-Unifi users.
The full pass is clearly aimed at fans who want the complete tournament experience, while the daily pass is better for those who only care about selected fixtures.
The added premium channels also make the season pass more appealing, especially for households that want more than just football during the subscription period.
Final Thoughts
Unifi TV's FIFA World Cup 2026 passes give Malaysian viewers a clear way to watch the full tournament live without relying only on selected free-to-air matches. With all 104 matches available through dedicated channels, the service is positioning itself as the main platform for complete World Cup coverage in Malaysia.
The RM50 starting price is reasonable for existing Unifi TV customers, while the RM60 option gives non-Unifi TV users a way to access the tournament as well. The RM20 daily pass adds flexibility for casual viewers, although the full pass will likely offer better value for anyone planning to watch more than a few matches.
For football fans, the main appeal is simple: full coverage, multiple device support, HD streaming, replays, highlights, and access to additional premium channels during the tournament window.
With the FIFA World Cup 2026 set to feature more matches than ever, having a complete viewing option will matter. For Malaysian fans who do not want to miss any of the action, Unifi TV's World Cup pass is now one of the key options to consider.
