Shop TV (currently stylized in all uppercase) is a 24-hour shopping related TV channel owned by Solar Entertainment Corporation.[1] Aside from its dedicated channel, Shop TV also aired through SolarFlix and soon via RPTV and Aliw Channel 23.

Shop TV operates daily from 8 am to 12 midnight on Solar's digital free TV (under test broadcast), while it operates 24 hours daily on most pay TV providers. However, starting Holy Week 2024, it continues to sign off from Maundy Thursday at midnight to Easter Sunday at 8:00 am along with its sister channels Solar Sports, SolarFlix and Solar Learning.

## About

[edit]

The idea for a 24/7 shopping channel in the Philippines was not as ubiquitous as it is today. It all began when a family of entrepreneurs decided to take a risk in October 2003, and introduced the concept of home shopping networks to the Philippine market.

Initially, ShopTV of Home Shopping Network aired for 12 hours daily starting November 2005. It later expanded its coverage to 24/7 airing by August 2006.
