Empowering Brazilian Cinema Lovers
Filmicca is celebrated for its curated collection of exclusive titles and festival favourites, as well as its strong focus on diversity.

The migration to the Magine Pro platform was completed in under four weeks, with an immediate integration across web and mobile apps. The swift and efficient process minimised downtime and user disruption, allowing Filmicca to continue serving its audience without interruption. Streaming applications for Samsung and LG Smart TVs followed soon after, in line with the manufacturer’s QA processes, expanding Filmicca’s presence on big screens.
Localised and User-Friendly for Brazilian OTT viewers
Understanding the importance of localisation, Magine Pro worked closely with Filmicca to tailor the platform to the specific needs of Brazilian users. This included implementing Portuguese language support, enabling transactions in Brazilian Real, and integrating with Stripe to facilitate seamless user payments. These enhancements ensure that Filmicca’s content is accessible and user-friendly for its Brazilian audience.
Enhanced Content Management and Analytics
With Magine Pro’s web-based CMS, Filmicca now has full autonomy over its streaming service, enabling the team to curate content, edit metadata, and publish assets with ease. The platform’s intuitive tools have streamlined content management and curation, leading to an improved user experience for higher engagement rates.
