Cord cutters can save big on all Paramount+ streaming plans — but the clock is ticking to get the deal.
From July 3 through 13, the ViacomCBS-owned streaming service is hosting its Summer Sale, offering two months of Paramount+ for just $0.99 per month. The deal applies to both plan options, meaning new subscribers can get either the ad-free Paramount+ Premium bundle (formerly known as Paramount+ with Showtime) or ad-supported Paramount+ Essential for a fraction of retail, as the former is regularly $12.99 per month and the latter regularly $7.99 per month.
This 92 percent savings is even higher than Paramount+’s 2024 Black Friday deal, which offered two months for $2.99 per month, marking the 2025 Summer Sale as one of the best deals we’ve ever seen for the streamer. Use code SUMMERSUN at checkout to opt into the savings.
After the special two-month offer, which can be cancelled at any time, subscriptions will renew at $7.99 per month for the ad-supported Paramount+ Essential plan and $12.99 per month for the ad-free Paramount+ Premium package that includes Showtime content.
For those interested in annual packages, the streaming service offers a seven-day free trial to both Paramount+ Premium and Paramount+ Essential. After the trial period, the former is $119.99 per year (about $10 per month) and the latter is $59.99 per year (about $5 per month).
Paramount+ Plans Compared: Paramount+ Premium vs. Paramount+ Essential
Paramount+ Essential is streamer’s ad-supported base package. It includes 40,000+ episodes and movies, NFL on CBS and UEFA Champions League live, access to select Showtime series and the ability to stream on three devices at once.
Paramount+ Premium (formerly known as Paramount+ with Showtime) offers everything in the essential plan without ads (except for live TV), plus access to all of Showtime, the ability to stream CBS live with more sports and events, the option to download movies and shows and the ability to watch in 4K UHD, Dolby Vision or HDR10.
