Paramount+, the Streaming service which is broadcast by CBS NFL gamesand Paramount+ originals like Mayor of Kingstown will increase their prices on August 20, 2024. If you’re a new or existing subscriber and want to lock in the current prices, we have a suggestion: Sign up for an annual subscription.
A yearly subscription to Paramount+ already saves you money over the current monthly price, but with the monthly price increasing to $8 later this month (for the Paramount+ Essential tier), a yearly subscription is even better value for $60.
Note: CBS Essentials and Paramount+ are both subsidiaries of Paramount.
What different pricing tiers does Paramount offer?
Paramount+ offers two pricing tiers. The Paramount+ Essential tier gives subscribers access to all NFL games broadcast by CBS for the upcoming 2024-2025 football season, UEFA Champions League games broadcast by CBS, and 24/7 live news coverage with CBS News. You also get on-demand access to the huge library of Paramount movies and TV shows (CBS, MTV, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon).
Paramount+ with Showtime subscribers get everything Paramount+ Essential subscribers get, plus the live feed of their local CBS affiliate, live sports like the Masters and NSWL, and the ability to download Paramount+ content to watch later. Paramount+ with Showtime subscribers can enjoy on-demand content ad-free.
