Dish Network (NASDAQ:DISH) shares rose more than 2% in extended-hours trading after it was reported that the company will sell mobile services on Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN).
The Charlie Ergen-led Dish (DISH) will sell its premium Boost Infinite mobile service on the e-commerce giant's website by the end of the week, Bloomberg reported, citing a person close to the matter.
Last month, it was reported that Amazon (AMZN) had been considering offering mobile service to its Prime subscribers and had talked to Dish Network (DISH), Verizon (VZ), T-Mobile (TMUS) and others. 
Earlier this month, it was reported that Dish Network (DISH) could merge with sister company EchoStar (SATS), both of which are controlled by the 70-year-old Ergen.
Dish (DISH) and Amazon (AMZN) did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Seeking Alpha.
