Salto (stylized as SⱯLTO) was a French subscription streaming service. A joint venture between France Télévisions, the TF1 Group and the Groupe M6, it was launched on October 20, 2020.

Salto offered a library of films and television series from the three groups respective television networks, as well as exclusive programming. It also offered live access to their television networks, a catch-up service, and a selection of programs in advanced access before their original broadcast. A selection of films from third-party distributors was also available on the service.

In February 2023, in a joint press release, the TF1, M6 and France Télévisions groups announced their intention to end the platform, following its difficulty in attracting subscribers. Salto closed on March 27, 2023.[3]

## History

[edit]

In June 2018, France Télévisions, the TF1 Group and the Groupe M6 announced the creation of a joint streaming service as a response to the many American services available in France, like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.[4][5] Similar to Joyn in Germany and BritBox in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia, and South Africa. This is mainly due to trends with younger generations shunning terrestrial TV in favor of streaming services, with traditional TV fearing that they have no choice but to adapt in the rapidly changing television market.[6]

## Exclusive programming
