How much does Paramount+ cost?
Paramount+ has recently split its single subscription service into three different options.
Similar to other services, like Netflix and Disney+, it charges three different prices – the basic option with ads is £4.99 a month, Standard is £7.99 a month and the Premium package is £10.99 a month.
Paramount+ Black Friday 2024
This Black Friday you can get Paramount+ for half price. The streaming service recently changed its pricing and for Black Friday it’s running an introductory offer.
New customers can get the Premier service for £5.49 per month (usually £10.99) for the first three months on a monthly plan, or £48.99 for the first year (usually £97.99).
Paramount+ is discounting the Standard plan to £3.99 a month (usually £7.99) for the first three months, or £35.49 for the first year (usually £70.99).

Deals and offers
Staropramen: 30 days free
Staropramen is running a promotion that gives you 30 days access to Paramount+ for free when you buy any multipack of the Czech Pilsner.
The QR code on the packaging will take you to the promotional website where you can sign up with your personal details and the last four digits of the pack’s barcode.
You’ve got until 31 January 2025 to get the deal.
Sky TV: free with Sky Cinema subscription
Anyone who pays for Sky Cinema via Sky Glass or Sky Q (not via NOW TV) will get Paramount+ for free. Bearing in mind the cost of this vs getting those same movies from NOW, then it’s not really much of a saving – especially as you’ll likely be tied into a longer contract.
Personally, I’d only get each service as and when I wanted to watch something on them – that’ll work out much cheaper.
Annual pass: Save 15%
If you pay for a full year upfront it costs £69.90, which works out at £5.82 a month. Effectively you’re getting 12 months for the price of 10.
50% off annual subscription (ended)
Until Sunday 6 October, if you use the code LG2024 you can get 50% off a Standard Annual Paramount membership.
Once your first year ends, it’ll auto-renew at the regular annual price, which is currently £69.90 per year. There’s a 12-month minimum term and both new and some former subscribers can get it.

Hi,
Confused.com are currently offering 3 months of Paramount plus for free when you download the Confused.com app.
After downloading the app confused.com should send a email within the next 21 days with the instructions to redeem the offer.
I have just attempted to use the 50% deal code and have now been charged a full year. There was no option to enter a promo code on the site. I am not happy about this. Thanks for costing me £69.00.
The option to enter a code is on the payment page. You’ll need to contact Paramount to explain your mistake and see if they will refund you. As long as you’ve not used the service you should be able to
For Paramount+ 1/2 price subscription use code DEC2023UPG, instead of the code shown above which no longer works
The 50% off annual pass still works (I just used it successfully)
The 50% off code for the annual pass isn’t working for me.
Not worked for me either gutted
Hi,
“INK” no longer works 🙁
found “INK” for 30 days newb trial
When entering either SHORE or NACHOS in the ‘Have a promotional code?’ box a message comes back saying ‘This promotional code is not valid.’
There was another promotional code in use called ‘SOUTHPARK’, however it expired on the 27th of July.
So, I am guessing that the 30 day free trail has finished unless there are any new codes.
After doing a bit more research I have come across another promotional code called ‘STARTREKDAY’, which I can confirm is still active and gives you the 30 day free trial of Paramount+
Hi, the 30 day free trial link sends me to the Xbox Game Pass Perks page instead of the Paramount website… Can you post the correct lin please?
