The channel appeared after an agreement between TVI and NOS, formerly named ZON, on August 1, 2012. In Portugal it has an exclusivity contract with NOS television services, in a similar manner to its sister channel TVI Ficção with MEO. Both channels carry distinct programming.[1][2]
The channel ended its broadcast on December 1, 2015, with a NOS test card (featuring sound from the Brazilian TV show Pânico na Band, that was broadcasting due to automated continuity).
On August 1, 2012, +TVI and NOS (formerly ZON) signed a partnership to launch +TVI. It was signed by Rodrigo Costa, ZON's president and Media Capital's CEO Rosa Cullell. It was revealed that the channel would have a post-summer launch and that it would be broadcast in high definition, none of which happened at the time.
The channel was closed on December 1, 2015, due to the launch of another NOS exclusive TVI channel, TVI Reality, according to Media Capital's communications director Helena Forjaz.
The channel kept its exclusivity to its last day.
