Paramount+ has just gone through its first price increase since 2024, and the change is happened right before UFC came to the platform. If you're new to the streaming service or looking to return before Paramount buys Warner Bros., you're probably wondering if there's a way to save some money on a subscription right now.
Fortunately there is a surprisingly good deal on the ad-free version of a subscription. This is the best discount we've seen on any of the Paramount+ plans all year. With he long-standing Paramount+ free trial has officially been removed alongside the price increase earlier this year, we've gathered all of the best discounts still availablefor March 2026 right here.
Paramount+ Deals for January 2026
There are currently only three ways to save on a subscription: Subscribing to the ad-free service at a discount, signing up as a student, or opting for an annual plan.
Paramout+ Premium Deal (Ends March 31)
For a limited time you can get two months of Paramount+ premium for only $2.99 per month. This subscription normally costs $13.99 per month and includes access to Showtime originals like Yellowjackets.
Students Get 50% Off
The most consistent Paramount+ deal available right now is specifically for students. If you can verify that you'll be enrolled as a student for a year, you will be eligible for a 50% discount on any of the Paramount+ plans. The offer is only valid for the first 12 months of the subscription and the student has to be at least 18 years old to get the discount. Paramount+ uses a website called SheerID to verify that you are indeed enrolled as a student.
Once the 12 months are up, you will be charged the full amount for the subscription regardless of your student status.
Save on Annual Plans
Your other option for saving money is to just sign up for an annual subscription plan rather than monthly. You can currently sign up for an annual Paramount+ Premium subscription for $139.99 a year or grab a Paramount+ Essential plan for $89.99 per year. Here's a quick breakdown of what the savings looks like compared to a monthly plan over that same 12 month period:
- Paramount+ Premium Annual Plan - Save $27.89 over 12 months
- Paramount+ Essential Plan - Save $17.89 over 12 months
Paramount+ Free Trial Option
As of January 15, Paramount+ is no longer directly offering a free trial to new subscribers. With that being said, you can still get a free trial of the service via a Walmart+ subscription.
Walmart+ Free Trial
Walmart+ has a 30-day free trial option for new subscribers. One of the benefits of this subscription is access to a Paramount+ Essentials plan, so you can test out the service for a full 30 days with this method. Walmart+ also allows you to switch between a Paramount+ and a Peacock Premium subscription every 90 days, so overall it's one of the best streaming bundles available in 2026.
