Free trial or not, snagging Cyber Friday deals for price cuts on streaming services feels like a win. Paramount Plus is running a special discount that gets you your first two months of the service at $3 a month. The catch? This deal isn’t going to last for much longer so this might be your last chance to save.
New and returning subscribers have the option to choose whether you want the discount for the ad-based Essential plan or ad-free Paramount Plus with Showtime. NFL football, Tyler Sheridan’s Landman, Gladiator, Transformers One and the upcoming Dexter: Original Sin may make this an attractive offer for the platform’s catalog.
This Cyber Monday offer is available from Nov. 25 through Wednesday, Dec. 4, and applies only to monthly subscriptions. Once the two-month discount expires, plans will be billed at their regular monthly rates of $8 for Essential and $13 for Paramount Plus with Showtime.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
Paramount Plus streams original TV shows and films such as Lioness, Evil, Tulsa King and the new Jack Black-as-Satan holiday film Dear Santa. It’s also home to Nickelodeon and CBS content, making it easy for anyone to watch SpongeBob and Paw Patrol along with NCIS, Poppa’s House, Blue Bloods and live sports. And this season, you can tune in for the streamer’s holiday lineup of classic and newer movies and TV releases.
Horror fans won’t be disappointed with titles like A Quiet Place, but you can also upgrade to get Showtime faves like The Chi and Billions. Don’t miss out on this deal if you want to cozy up for a TV streaming binge this season.
Why this deal matters
Like its rivals, Paramount Plus implemented price increases on its subscription plans in the summer of 2024. While the streamer didn’t raise the rates on its annual subscriptions, new subscribers saw a bump from $6 to $8 for the monthly Essential plan and an increase of $12 to $13 for the premium plan with Showtime. The Cyber Monday discount shaves off $5 for ad-based Paramount Plus and takes $10 off the ad-free version.
