How to Watch Paramount Plus for Free

The only way to watch Paramount Plus for free is by signing up for a subscription and enjoying the free trial period. By signing up for any plan, you receive a Paramount Plus free trial for seven days. Keep in mind, you can cancel your subscription at anytime before the next billing cycle to avoid paying for Paramount Plus.

We’d like to note that while the Paramount Plus free trial is great, the 50% off deal is definitely worth capitalizing on since the $59.99/year price comes out to about just $5/month. Plus, the annual price after the discount is the same as the annual Essential Plan price, meaning you’re getting premium offerings for the price of a basic plan! With all that said, who wouldn’t want to stream Paramount Plus With Showtime for less than the price of a specialty coffee per month?

How Much Does Paramount Plus Cost?

The streamer offers two different plans in both monthly and annual subscription options. All plans are eligible for the Paramount Plus free trial, but only the Paramount Plus With Showtime plan is currently 50% off.

You can opt for the Paramount Plus Essential plan with ads for $5.99/month or $59.99/year; this plan does not include Showtime or your local live CBS station, but NFL on CBS and UEFA Champions League are available via separate live feeds.

Alternatively, you can watch ad-free by subscribing to the Paramount+ With Showtime plan for $11.99/month, or save by paying just $59.99 for an annual plan. The plan typically goes for $119.99, so this is a deal you won’t want to miss! The Paramount Plus With Showtime plan does include your local live CBS station. Though the plan is mostly ad-free, live TV streams will still have commercials, and a few shows include brief promotional interruptions to keep you in the loop on new and upcoming Paramount+ programming.
