ishop TV is an Australian free-to-air television channel and a digital advertorial datacasting service that was launched on 30 April 2013. The channel is owned by Seven West Media (formerly Prime Media Group) and Brand Developers, broadcasting infomercials and home shopping. The channel appeared on the Prime multiplex on 22 April 2013.[1] The channel was supposed to launch on 1 May 2013.[2][3]

When sister channel 4ME on channel 64 was closed after its operator Brand New Media went into administration,[4] channel 64 was re-purposed as a feed of ishop TV. The extra feed was later removed in June 2016. This channel broadcast on channel 65 from its launch until the last day of November 2022, when it was moved to channel 67 to fit 7Bravo on channel 65. It is only available in Seven regional areas excluding Southern Cross Austereo/WIN Corporation affiliates and Regional QLD and also not Seven metro areas.
