Seems like there is a pricing error for Paramount+ on the Apple ecosystem.
Need an iOS device to take advantage.
Instructions:
Get it while you can and enjoy 😄
noob question, how do I cancel in the app?
Not in app. Basically go to your settings on your iPhone, tap your name at the top and tap subscriptions
Now I can’t wait for deals abt movies on paramount +
Thanks OP, worked for me!
Thanks Op done!
Still working. Thanks OP.
Done
Just tried it and after filing in my name, email address and password, I am only presented with two options, 1. $8.99/month & 2. $5.99/month paid upfront yearly at $89.99. There is a un-clickable "7-Day Free Trial" above option 1, it is only Text, not in a clickable Box. So I can only move on to next screen by closing option 1 or 2, er no thanks, they must've fixed the typo.
payment is a sub through AppStore. just sign up to P+ month trial and then follow the steps outlined by OP
No you select and sign up to the monthly $8.99/month option first (you still get the 7 days free) - and then in the settings change your subscription to the $5.99 annual option
Christ. Read the instructions again. Select the $8.99 option and pay. Then refer to instructions for next ste.
- Go into your Subcriptions in Apple Settings and select “anual” at $5.99
- You’re good until 2022
You have to select the monthly 8.99/m first. As the OP’s post says, you won’t get charged here, and the screen specifically says the 8.99 will start “after” the free trial. Then once you’ve signed up to the monthly plan, you then go into settings/account and change it to “annual”.
pardon me, I (we) have been and still are in Covid LOCKDOWN! :P
Find of the year!! Thank you!
Done. Great find.
Erg, no iPhones or ipads in this house, and this doesnt work on macbook.
Can anyone find the Paramount + app on their LG OLED?
Probably doesn't exist yet. The streaming platform is quite new and even their mobile app is pretty underdeveloped. Can't even find a way to change password from within the app.
You're right.
Lucky was able to find it on the Nvidia Shield. Some great content.
There is none.
And no binge yet either
No Australian Paramount yet. Only USA P+.
Was worried that I would have to jump through hoops to watch the new season of Dexter when it arrives. This has made life much easier!
How many deals have reached 1000+ likes in such a record time?
Should I even buy an iPhone to get this deal?
great find, thanks
does anyone know how to set up user profiles, cant find it anywhere
i was gonna ask the same thing…looks like no atm but it did take Prime ages to do the same. All i can find is Parental lock.
No profiles yet for Australia.
Daria alone makes this worth it.
Downloads
Buys
Looks at content
Contemplates if I was happier with keeping the $5.99…
Whats the content like? Is it Amazonish ?
It is worse than Prime.
It’s like/is channel ten with a few more shows.
Prime Video has better content than Netflix.
Pretty average… I'm yet to go through it all but it's on par with Amazo Prime… Probably worse actually.
But for $5.99 a year, I can't complain… If I had to pay $5.99 a month?? No chance in hell!
Yep
OP is the real MVP on OZB! ♥️
Not that is matters that much, but my credit card transaction history is showing $7.99 instead of $5.99 after doing the first step for $8.99 per month.
But under instructions I have the anual $5.99 /year option selected.
Wonder why the price discrepancy compared to everyone else.
Yeah that is strange. Mine shows $5.99
Great deal with the Aleague on Paramount plus from October.
Yes true! Thanks for reminding me
And champions league
Thought Stan had that unless you mean the AFC Champions League I guess
@pandaman Champions League is with Stan, had to sign up to it this morning for a 7-day free-trial.
Ah cheers, I stand corrected
Yeah this is the only reason I wanted it - and was quite annoyed at having to pay $9/month for the privilege of watching an enjoyable (but 2nd class) football league. So thanks OP!
Sorry but these guys are not JD Sports or David Jones.
I hope….
I have android ahhh
get a friend to sign up…!
Would I have to give them my card details?
No - you’d send them the $5.99 and they would purchase through their iTunes/Apple account
Try paypal, and u can change password after transaction.
No they should NOT ask for your card details.
Check out DarkSide's comment below. Good luck.
Alternative Instructions:
- Download the Paramount App
- Sign up to a Monthly subscription (you are not charged here as there’s a free 7 day trial)
- Go into Your Itunes Program on Pc
- Account, View My Account, Scroll Down to Settings Itunes Program on Pc Manage, Find Paramount Plus Click Edit and select “anual” at $5.99
- You’re good until 2022
I am so confused, is this saying download it on Android and do these steps ?
Same
I downloaded Paramount+ App on my Galaxy S21 and went to my iTunes which is the same e-mail and nothing in "Account, View My Account, Scroll Down to Settings Itunes Program on Pc Manage, Find Paramount Plus Click Edit and select “anual” at $5.99"
Edit: Seems like they fixed the price and either way, the android and then going into PC itunes doesn't work.
gr8 find OP ! Done
I'm ok now, thanks for asking yesterday
You mean the day before yesterday.
Now I feel bad again, thanks.
He's still not OK.
Recent Paramount+ review from TheAge:
Drawcards: Access to programming from the likes of Comedy Central, Nickelodeon and MTV, Paramount Plus offers a decent variety. Will be home to the much-hyped reboots of both Frasier and Dexter.
Shortcomings: Heavy on reality TV and light on drama.”
Oh, I've been living under a rock. Frasier is being rebooted?!
Dexxxxttteerrrrrrrr!!!
Amazing deal. Thanks OP.
Subscription email from Apple says renewal price is also “$5.99/year”. Win!
I got the year, I threw it on the Android TV, honestly think I wasted 6 bucks lmao.
Think the missus was gonna check out the new Dexter when it comes out, so I guess saves pirating that. Hopefully they drop some worthwhile stuff throughout the year.
I have Netflix and Amazon Prime, but only $5.99, can't resist. Thanks, OP
App is not working on my (free) foxtel now box. Seems there is always problems with ch10 apps on there. 10play isn’t available for download.
Got one. best deal of the year
Then why don’t you upvote the deal?
Has anyone got the Paramount+ channel within Apple TV working on their ps5? It requests me to sign up / subscribe again even though I’m connected to my Apple ID. I’ve reset the app / ps5 several times…
Does the PS5 have a native app for Paramount+?
Ps5 doesn’t have a paramount app that I can see…
Don’t think you’re getting it working on the PS5
Have you tried resetting your Paramount+ password? I had a similar issue on an Apple TV
I don’t even get the option to sign in - it just shows ‘try paramount+ free - unless I’m blind haha
Just signed up.
There is virtually nothing I am interested in watching at all, but at $5.99 meh
Got charged $5.67
You double scammed them lol.
The content isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, it's got a decent range of movies and TV shows. Thanks OP
Just got this as well. I didn't see the funds deducted. Did you guys get charged $5.99？
Yes.
After seeing the catalog I wouldn’t be even mad if they canceled it and refunded me.
Really not much to see here.
Same.
Anyone able to hook me up if I send you $5.99?
Is this the most upvoted deal on Ozbargain history?
Hahaha, wtf. And it was his first post as well! lol
OMG AlphaSquid you legend….how on earth did you find this deal of the decade?
trying to get it working watching via Apple TV apple so I can watch on my LG TV. connected the paramount app in the apple TV app.
when going to the Apple TV, the paramount section still says "wanna try for free for 7 days"?

I cant seem to find the option to restore purchase?

![[iOS] Paramount Plus Subscription for $5.99/Year (iOS App Required)](https://files.ozbargain.com.au/n/80/650480.jpg?h=28cbdbd4)
Renewal price is $5.99/year in September 2022 - if they don’t fix the glitch, I’ve got email proof I’m on a grandfathered plan at $5.99 yearly ;)
