Z1 broadcasts live every weekday between 7am and 11pm. Its business and finance news service is supplemented by business talk shows and a daily interview program with high-profile guests. The rest of the program consists of acquired documentaries and other features. Over the weekend, Z1 broadcasts documentaries and life style programs.

Z1 broadcasts over DVB-T, DVB-S, DVB-C and IPTV. It can also be viewed online and on mobile phones through a streaming video application.[3] In cooperation with T-Mobile Czech Republic, Z1 provides daily news SMS and MMS updates to subscribers.[4]
