History

On March 28, 2019, the Canadian Premier League and the Canadian Soccer Association announced the creation of Canadian Soccer Business (CSB), an organization "representing commercial assets and inventory for marquee soccer properties in Canada", including "all corporate partnerships and broadcast rights related to Canada Soccer's core assets including its national teams, along with all rights associated with the CPL". On February 21, 2019, it announced a 10-year agreement with Mediapro, under which it holds all media rights associated with Canada Soccer, including rights to the Canadian Premier League, the Canadian Championship, and rights to national team matches. In April, Mediapro announced that its rights would be housed in a new subscription service known as OneSoccer, which launched as an online-only live and on-demand subscription service through its website on April 26, 2019, with its first live match airing the next day.

In August 2019, OneSoccer acquired rights to the 2019–20 CONCACAF Nations League season. In January 2020, OneSoccer acquired exclusive Canadian rights to various CONCACAF championships through 2023, including the CONCACAF Gold Cup.
