The channel can be viewed on Indovision on channel 100 and OkeVision on channel 92, as well as through free live streaming on okezone.tv. MNC CEO Hary Tanoesoedibjo stated, "The launch of MNC Business stems from the country's reliance on foreign news channels like CNN International for business and economics, which has not yet been accommodated by domestic pay-per-view television."
