In 2014, TelkomVision officially rebranded as Transvision due to TelkomVision shareholders only 20% and now owned by Trans Media which became its principal shareholder by holding 80%. Now Transvision is fully owned by joint venture between Telkom Group and Trans Media.

It has also a digital cable service that covers Bandung, Jakarta, and Surabaya.[citation needed] Now replaced by IndiHome which still owned by Telkom Indonesia, as of 2021.

At April 2011, TelkomVision has 200,000 subscribers and was planned be boosted up to 500,000 at end of the year using security and media technology software, Irdeto's Conditional Access System. The lowest Hit Family package costs Rp.55,000 ($6.4) per month, but Transvision would soon release a cheaper product to introduce pay TV broadcasts.[4]
