Peacock Subscription Plans: What's Available?

Understanding Peacock’s Subscription Tiers

Peacock, a streaming service from NBCUniversal, has introduced three subscription tiers to cater to different viewer preferences. As the platform continues to grow, it's essential for users to understand what each plan offers and how they differ.

How Much Do Peacock’s Subscription Plans Cost?

Peacock currently provides three main subscription options:

• Peacock Select: $8 per month
• Peacock Premium: $11 per month
• Peacock Premium Plus: $17 per month

For those who prefer an annual payment, Peacock offers equivalent pricing for 10 months of service. This means:

• Peacock Select Annual: $80 per year
• Peacock Premium Annual: $110 per year
• Peacock Premium Plus Annual: $170 per year

Does Peacock Offer a Free Trial?

Unlike some other streaming services, Peacock does not provide a free trial for new or returning customers. However, the platform may offer promotional deals from time to time, so it's worth checking the official site for any special offers.

Is There an Additional Fee for Live Sports?

Yes, live sports are only available on the Peacock Premium and Premium Plus plans. The Select tier does not include access to live sports events, which can be a significant consideration for sports fans.

Are All Content Available on Every Plan?

No, not all content is available on every plan. The Select tier includes select favorites from NBC and Bravo but lacks Peacock original content and live sports. The Premium and Premium Plus tiers offer access to the full library, including live sports, exclusive originals, and more.

Is Peacock Available in Any Bundles?

As of now, Peacock is available in one bundle: the StreamSaver bundle, which is exclusively for Xfinity TV and internet customers. This bundle includes Peacock, Netflix with ads, and Apple TV+ for a total of $15 per month.
