Even if you have a comprehensive cable package, streaming services have become all but necessary to keep up with select sports and original TV shows. Fortunately, there are deals on nearly every streaming service out there, especially when it comes to opting in for an annual plan or bundling multiple services together. Below, we’ve highlighted all of the best streaming deals and bundles, from Disney to Amazon and everything in between.
While many of these deals are standard, year-round offerings, we’ll keep this page updated to include limited-time-only sales so that you’ll never miss out on potential savings. So far this month, we’ve found a few sales from STARZ, savings on multiple DirecTV plans, and a rare ESPN+ promo.
Check out each streaming service’s currently available deals below. We’ve highlighted both standard streaming services and live TV packages, with price comparisons to how much you’d pay per year with a month-to-month plan or how much you’d pay per month without bundling multiple services together. Many of the streamers offer introductory deals, which we’ve also outlined.
Paramount+
There are always year-round savings with Paramount+ annual plans compared to paying month-to-month (Essential plans go for $7.99/month, and the With Showtime tier costs $12.99/month). With both tiers, you end up saving about $35 each year by opting for the annual plan. Essential gives subscribers ad-supported on-demand content, while the Showtime upgrade offers an ad-free experience and other perks. Six months of Paramount+ Essential is also included with all Walmart+ plans, from monthly ($12.95/month) to annual ($98/year).
Paramount Plus Essential (Annual Plan)
Upgrading from a monthly to an annual plan will save you more than 1/3 of the cost each year. The Essential tier offers live NFL on CBS games and ad-supported on-demand content.
Paramount Plus with Showtime (Annual Plan)
Paramount Plus with Showtime gives subscribers ad-free on-demand CBS, Paramount Plus, and Showtime content, in addition to 24/7 CBS live streams. If you switch from monthly to annual, you can save more than $30 each year.
Walmart+ Monthly Subscription
Walmart+ is positioning itself as a more affordable alternative to Amazon Prime. Paramount+ Essential is included with every subscription.
If you just want to stick with a monthly plan, you can head to the Paramount+ website.
ESPN+
ESPN+ goes for $11.99 a month, so a standard annual plan offers some savings if you’re planning to keep your subscription for a year. The streaming service is best known for its UFC pay-per-view (PPV) events, which require a subscription and an additional PPV fee. The bundle below offers further discounts when you combine an annual subscription with a PPV purchase.
From now through June 20, ESPN+ is also running a special offer on its monthly plans. New and eligible returning customers can get over 50% off their first three months of service. The promo knocks monthly plans down to just $4.99 a month, a $7 discount on the standard $11.99 a month rate. ESPN+ typically reserves deals for its annual plan, so this month-to-month discount is a rarity.
ESPN+ (Monthly Plan)
ESPN Plus is designed for sports, giving subscribers access to live MLB, NHL, NFL, soccer, golf, and UFC fights. The streamer is offering a rare, limited-time offer that knocks over 50% off your first three months of service.
ESPN+ (Annual Plan)
Get a year’s access to ESPN+ for the cost of 10 months. You can stream select games from the ABC and ESPN family, and access PPV events for an additional fee.
UFC PPV + Annual ESPN+ Membership (Bundle)
ESPN+ is the home of UFC PPV events, meaning that fans need to purchase a subscription in addition to buying the one-off cards. ESPN is offering a bundle for both new subscribers and monthly subscribers to purchase a specific UFC PPV event along with a year-long subscription to the streaming service.
If you’d rather just try a monthly plan, you can go to the ESPN+ website.
Peacock
Peacock’s monthly plans go for $7.99 or $13.99 a month, so the annual plans add up to about 12 months for the price of the 10. The Premium tier offers on-demand and select live coverage with ads, while Premium Plus has ad-free on-demand content and a 24/7 live stream of NBC. The service boasts select live sports and classic comedies, like The Office, Parks and Rec, and Saturday Night Live. Peacock Premium is also included for free with Instacart+ subscriptions, which come with a two-week free trial period.
Peacock Premium (Annual Plan)
The annual version of Peacock’s ad-supported tier offers some solid savings compared to month-to-month plans. The plan unlocks Peacock’s full suite of on-demand content, including programming from NBC, Bravo, Universal, and Peacock originals.
Peacock Premium Plus (Annual Plan)
The annual plan of Peacock Premium Plus gives you the benefit of getting 10 months for the price of 12. As with the monthly tier of Plus, this gets rid of most ads, allows for select downloads, and comes with your local live NBC offering.
Instacart Plus Annual Subscription
Instacart Plus is a great option for those who regularly use Instacart delivery. Memberships include $0 grocery delivery fees on orders of $10+, a NYT Cooking subscription, a Peacock Premium subscription, and more.
You can check out the Peacock website if you’d rather subscribe to a monthly plan.
Disney Plus
Disney (and several of its partners) offers the greatest number of deals through bundles. There are savings if you bundle Disney+ with Hulu, with Hulu and Max, with Hulu and ESPN+, with Hulu + Live TV, or if you just get an annual Disney+ ad-free subscription. We recommend trying out one of the Disney+ and Hulu combos no matter what, since you get two entire on-demand subscriptions for only $1 to $4 more than the price of one.
Disney Plus Ad-Free (Annual Plan)
Disney+ is an on-demand, ad-free streaming service where subscribers will be able to enjoy movies and shows from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic, and 20th Century Fox. This subscription also includes original programming exclusive to Disney+.
Disney Plus & Hulu Bundle with Ads
There’s a huge double-saving on these two bundled popular ad-supported streaming platforms. The plan offers all content from both Hulu and Disney Plus at a fraction of what it would cost to pay for them separately.
Disney Plus/Hulu/ESPN+ Bundle with Ads
You can get a triple subscription to the ad-supported tiers of Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN+ for $16.99 a month. That’s almost $15 in savings each month over subscribing separately.
Disney Plus/Hulu/Max Bundle with Ads
This triple-value bundle gets you ad-supported access to Disney Plus, Hulu, and Max for just $17 a month. That’s $13 off the regular combined cost of all three services and provides you with a huge selection of shows and movies to enjoy.
Disney Plus/Hulu/Max Bundle without Ads
This package offers ad-free streaming access to Disney Plus, Hulu, and Max for $30 a month. That’s more than $20 less than the regular combined cost of all three services. However, while Disney Plus and Hulu both provide 4K support, the Max plan included with this bundle is limited to HD video quality.
If you plan to stick with just one streaming service or want to try a month-to-month subscription first, you can head to the Disney+ website for more information.
Starz
Starz subscriptions typically cost $10.99 a month, $45.99 for six months, or $69.99 for a year, but the streamer is usually running a promo on at least one of its plans at any given moment. Right now, users can get the annual plan for just $23.99 or the first three months of the monthly plan for $3.99 a month. Even without the deal, the Starz annual plan offers about 47% in savings year-over-year compared to when you pay for the regular monthly plan, so the current deal makes it essentially 82% off. You can also bundle a STARZ subscription with BritBox, the North American streaming home of several BBC and ITV series. This costs $14.99 a month, which breaks down to about 25% off of what it would cost to subscribe to both streaming services separately each month.
Starz Streaming Service Monthly Subscription
STARZ is the streaming home of Outlander, Party Down, and tons of blockbuster movies. The app is one of the cheaper ad-free streaming services out there, but it also frequently offers impressive deals throughout the year.
STARZ Annual Plan
STARZ offers blockbuster movies and popular original series like Outlander, Party Down, and Power. Deals on annual plans make the service more than half-off for an entire year.
STARZ BritBox Bundle
You can combine a STARZ subscription with BritBox for a discounted price. In addition to original STARZ dramas and popular on-demand movies, this unlocks a wealth of content from overseas broadcasters such as the BBC and ITV.
If you’re only interested in getting a month-to-month subscription, you can check out the Starz website.
DAZN
DAZN has become an absolute hub for boxing, hosting some of the most-anticipated matches around the globe each year. DAZN also offers select other sports, usually without a PPV fee, although boxing is its focus. Most major fights require a subscription and pay-per-view (PPV) fee, but you can find some savings by opting for an annual plan rather than a monthly plan. Month-to-month flexible plans cost $29.99 a month, but you can opt in for savings via either of the annual options: $19.99 a month locked into a 12-month contract or $224.99 a year upfront.
DAZN Annual Subscription
DAZN is a sports streaming service that puts an emphasis on boxing. While many major fights require a pay-per-view (PPV) fee, viewers will also need a regular subscription. You can find savings when paying upfront for an annual plan.
For more information on DAZN’s plans and PPV offerings, you can explore the DAZN website.
Prime Video
If you don’t already have an Amazon Prime account, you can save money on an annual subscription. Monthly Amazon Prime subscriptions (which include Prime Video) cost $14.99 a month, and monthly Prime Video subscriptions cost $8.99 a month. You can go ad-free for an extra $2.99 a month. The streaming service offers everything from award-winning original TV series and movies to live sports.
Amazon Prime (Annual Plan)
All Amazon Prime memberships include Prime Video, so you can watch everything from “The Boys” to Thursday Night Football while getting two-day delivery on your latest orders. If you plan to hang onto your Prime subscription for the longterm, you’ll find some savings in an annual subscription.
If you’d rather try a monthly plan or just stick with Prime Video, you can find more information on the Prime Video storefront.
Apple TV+
Apple TV Plus typically costs $9.99 a month, but users can find savings in an annual plan, which costs $99.00 and saves them about $20 each year. It’s worth noting that you might need to sign up for a monthly plan first and then opt into annual billing. You can also save some money on the MLS Season Pass if you’re already an Apple TV Plus subscriber. Additionally, the cost of the season pass usually decreases throughout the season. As of June, the plan is 25% off.
Apple TV Plus (Annual Plan)
Apple TV Plus features exclusive original series like “Ted Lasso,” “The Morning Show,” and “For All Mankind.” Annual plans cost $99 a year, which saves $20 versus paying for individual months.
If you’re interested in learning more about Apple TV Plus or other Apple services, you can visit the Apple TV Plus website for additional information.
Max
There are three tiers of Max, formerly HBO Max (and soon to be HBO Max again), in addition to a Disney/Max/Hulu bundle, which we’ve highlighted above. The standard monthly price for Max with Ads is $9.99, Max Ad-Free is $16.99, and Max Ultimate Ad-Free is $20.99. The ad-free tiers also include sports live streaming for games that air on Warner Bros. channels, like TNT and TBS. The annual version of each plan offers about 17% off in total per year, which is not a bad deal if Max is something you’re planning to hang onto in the long run.
Max Ad-Free (Annual Plan)
The Ad-Free plan comes with the ability to stream on two devices, full HD video resolution, and 30 downloads for on-the-go viewing.
Max Ultimate Ad-Free (Annual Plan)
Max’s most expensive tier comes with all of the perks. Subscribers can stream everything in 4K on up to four devices. Plus, the service comes with Dolby Atmos audio and 100 available downloads at any given time for offline viewing.
You can go to the Max website if you’d rather just sign up for a month-to-month plan right now.
Sling TV
Sling is one of the most affordable live TV packages on the market, and it’s also one of the most deal-friendly cable alternatives. There are three main plans to choose from — Sling Orange, Sling Blue, and the Sling Orange + Blue combo — and all tiers offer at least half off your first month. The combo is particularly alluring because it offers both plans ($45.99 each) for just $60.99 a month. From there, you can get half off that price in your introductory month.
Sling Blue
Access 40+ channels for just $23 a month for your first month as a part of a special offer right now on Sling Blue where you can get 50% off. The best part about Sling is that you only pay for what you want and you’re not tied to a long-term contract
Sling Orange
You can access 35 live channels with Sling Orange, including ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN3. Right now, you can get 50% off your first month before subscriptions go back to $46 a month, which you can cancel any time.
Sling TV Orange + Blue
Sling TV offers some of the best cable channels for $61 or less. There are three different tiers to choose from, plus several sports and entertainment-specific add-ons, but the Orange + Blue combo is the best way to get the most major sports channels. Plus, you can usually get about half off your first month.
If you want to explore Sling TV and its add-ons, visit the Sling website for more information.
Fubo
Fubo is a slightly more expensive live TV service, with standard plans starting at $84.99 a month, but the sports-centric cable alternative offers more than 150 channels at the touch of a button. The service offers everything from local networks to niche, traditionally cable channels, with a few exceptions. The streamer currently offers $20 off its Pro and Elite plans and $5 off its Latino plan.
Fubo Pro
Fubo is the streaming service for sports fans. Its huge library of channels includes regional and international sports leagues, setting it apart from the competition. You can also tack on additional programming to your plan, but it’ll cost you extra.
Fubo Elite
Fubo’s base plan offers tons of classic channels, including local networks and traditional cable options, but the Elite tier unlocks 4K and even more sports-friendly options.
Fubo Latino
Fubo Latino carries several popular Spanish-language channels, including Telemundo, TUDN, ESPN Deportes, and more. Each plan also comes with unlimited DVR and the ability to watch on two screens.
For additional plans and channel information, head to Fubo’s website.
DirecTV
DirecTV, formerly DirecTV Stream, is another comprehensive live TV streaming service with pretty much all of the channels you’ll find in a standard cable package. While we haven’t seen much in the way of deals on the cheaper genre packs, the Signature plans are occasionally on sale. Right now, subscribers can get $5 off the monthly cost of the Entertainment plans for 24 months. They can also get anywhere from $30 to $40 off their first month of the Choice, Ultimate, and Premiere plans. These plans also knock $10 to $20 a month off the next 23 months. Just keep in mind that the actual prices might be a bit higher after paying the required regional sports fees, which can reach up to $17.99 a month on top of the standard monthly rate, and/or any necessary Gemini lease fees.
DirecTV Entertainment
DirecTV’s base Signature package, the Entertainment plan, carries 90+ live channels, including local networks and popular cable options like ESPN, CNN, and MTV.
DirecTV Choice
DirecTV Choice carries all of the merits of the provider’s Entertainment tier, plus access to regional and specialty sports networks. The MLB Network, NBA TV, and SEC Network are just some of the 125+ channels available with the plan.
DirecTV Ultimate
DirecTV’s Ultimate plan is appropriately named. With 160+ channels, it’s the highest tier that the streamer has to offer, carrying all of the cable essentials and then some.
DirecTV Premier
DirecTV’s Premier plan is the kitchen sink of the streaming world. It offers more than 185+ live channels, in addition to Max, Paramount Plus with Showtime, STARZ, and Cinemax.
If you’re interested in learning more about DirecTV, check out the DirecTV website for additional information.
Philo
Some streaming services rarely (if ever) offer deals or bundles, but their free trials are worth a shout, especially in an era when streaming services often forgo free trials altogether. Philo, one of the cheapest live TV streaming services out there, always has a one-week free trial going. After that, the app will renew at $28 a month.
Philo TV
If you want your streaming service to cost less per month than a single trip for the family to Starbucks, Philo is made with you in mind. It features over 70 channels for just $28 a month, but it is missing popular sports and local networks.
You can find more info and channel offerings on the Philo website.
