Hi folks - I wasn't keen on paying the minimum $25 /month on Stan to watch the Champions League this year so looked into other options. Paramount Plus has the streaming rights in US inc. Europa and other leagues for US $5.99 month and $59.99 annual which is a lot cheaper. I was able to signup using prepaid gift cards without too much hassle, a VPN is required - I use Surfshark.

Signup Process:
1. Purchase a eGift card from Amazon US, which you will receive in a few minutes - https://shorturl.at/jAISV
2. Login to your favourite VPN, I use Surfshark connecting to Miami server. I cant vouch for any other VPN's as this is the only one ive tried
3. When you receive your gift card go to www.paramountplus.com/gift to redeem, enter your voucher number - this link wont work properly unless your connected to your VPN
4. You will be asked to signup with some basic details, name, email etc - no credit card details required & choose plan
5. Happy streaming - VPN is required for both signup and viewing

For Android - I downloaded the Android APK's for my phone and TV from https://m.apkpure.com/ which both work fine (again with VPN when viewing). Not sure about iOS

Note: I did initially try to signup using a credit card, this didn't work, I tried a few with no luck.

There are 2 plans to choose from, the other is US $11.99 /month which includes Showtime and no ads, and you have option for monthly or annual (I started with monthly and upgraded to annual).

Even if your not into the sport there seems to be a good amount of movies and TV shows that make it worthwhile.

Disclaimer: Ive only had this going for a few days, streaming quality has been fine maintaining HD quality. I cant vouch for the longevity of this method, it works fine today but who knows what tomorrow holds.

    There are so many free month codes for Paramount Plus US. Don't forget to use those freebies. Free it's always better.

    Just signed up for a free trial yesterday, noticed they also have 50% off the annual plan, ending today. $29.99 USD for the year for Paramount+ Essential (includes Champions League) . However, like posted above, I'm gonna play my luck with free trial codes. ~$50 AUD for a year of Champions League is a solid price though.

    • adambrug on 21/09/2023 - 10:48

      I did see this but it only seemed to be available when signing up via the credit card method which I couldn't do.I didn't get that 50% special via the gift card method. If there is a better way let me know!

      • tresburrito on 21/09/2023 - 12:52

        Sorry yeah I am American and was able to sign up with US credit card so I didn't notice that hurdle. Even full price is so much cheaper than paying $25 a month for Stan Sports so good find!

    Do they have 4k champions league like Stan?

    It is a bit exxy for Stan standard + Sport ($31/month, $372 annually), but i halve it with a sibling ($15.5/month).

    • adambrug on 21/09/2023 - 10:49

    • X2Jason on 21/09/2023 - 17:10

      Any type of account can run Stan Sport in 4K, but you're right for the entertainment side you need the top Stan subscription to get 4K and four concurrent logins.

  • mnc on 21/09/2023 - 11:00

    You can also watch 15min highlights on YouTube for free using US vpn

      Is that on Paramounts YouTube channel (linky)?

      Stan has 3 minute highlights with no spoilers in the title, which is ok for my casual football needs:

    Thanks op! I am assuming here it would work with usual Paramount account too as long as you use Vpn.
    I have actually used the vpn to watch UK and Italian shows/movies. I will try to connect to the US with my current login.

    • anonymous_coward on 21/09/2023 - 11:35

      If you mean if you have the AU version of Paramount + can you use a VPN to watch the USA Paramount + = NO. I was hoping to be able to do that like with Netflix and Prime. But when I tried with P+ all it does is recognise I am "in the USA" with my VPN and won't accept my AU P+ login. It wants me to sign up as a new US subscriber. That's my experience anyway - if anyone else has gotten it to work with their AU P+ account please share the magic.

      Paramount Aus and UK can share login details , but paramount Usa is a seperate account , from memory it also uses a seperate app.

  • richrichie on 21/09/2023 - 11:30

    I tried Vidio with surfshark VPN for CL games, seems decent for the price ($4/month), also comes with Serie A and a bunch of other shows. Annual subs is about $25. There is a higher subscription that includes EPL, cost about $6/month.

      • Josh213 on 21/09/2023 - 11:52

        IPTV I just use for sports/live events as Stremio isn’t the best for that.
        I use RD with Stremio for all other things streaming, shows etc.

        • denserham on 21/09/2023 - 12:52

    • edisonAU on 21/09/2023 - 12:12

      That only works for movies and TV shows. For sports I use Kodi + Mad Titan Sports or The Crew on Firestick to watch on TV

    • denserham on 21/09/2023 - 12:50

      Streamio with RD wouldn't help with sports.

      • Josh213 on 21/09/2023 - 13:20

        IPTV is what I use for sport, still working out cheaper to the above while including PPVs etc.

    • NoApostrophePlurals on 21/09/2023 - 14:02

      What IPTV apps do you use? I'm specifically looking for android apps to use on Google TV and Nvida shield. I have just set up Kodi with a couple of add ons like Ghost and The Crew. I find the user interface for Kodi really clunky, making me hesitant to pay for real debrid. If there's a better experience, I'm happy to pay for real debrid. Any suggestions?

      • Josh213 on 21/09/2023 - 14:19

        I’ll PM you mate, but as others said RD with Stremio isn’t the way to go for sports but IPTV with the right app allows you to watch basically any event.

        Tivimate is the best IPTV app for android tvs, so many features and beautiful interface. I have tried close to 50 apps and settled on tivimate. For IPTV, I recommend getting a cheap $3 a month subscription from alibaba. You get thousands of channels and no vpns are required.

        • dbrandt on 21/09/2023 - 18:47

          Better to pay a bit extra for a quality provider.

        • NoApostrophePlurals on 21/09/2023 - 23:36

          Do these subscriptions have EPL and champions league in English?

          Probably pushing my luck, but do they have PPV like UFC and boxing matches?

          • Groovyuvi on 22/09/2023 - 06:15

            @NoApostrophePlurals: Yes they do, they have all of UK sky, bt sports etc and ppvs. I personally have not had any issues using these cheap services, you can get free trials from alibaba sellers as well.

            • NoApostrophePlurals on 22/09/2023 - 09:55

              @Groovyuvi: I did a quick google and discussions talk about EGP a lot. Have you had a good experience with any one particular over another? If so, could you DM me a link to one off Alibaba you use?

              There's soooany she. I search Alibaba I don't really know what to get.

              I saw mentions of StreamQ having an excellent EPG but it's 75 USD a year, not cheap.

              • Groovyuvi on 22/09/2023 - 12:53

                @NoApostrophePlurals: Hey

                The epg is not the best from what I've seen but streaming quality is pretty good. You do get epg for most UK and US channels.The channels are mostly 1080p with some 4ks too. They're all pretty much resellers of one major iptv resource so experience is very similar.

                Feel free to dm me.

    You could also split a Stan Sport (with Stan if you wish) sub with a group of ozb folk which works out pretty cheap and doesn't need a VPN. Also don't have to put up with American hosts/commentators……(not that Aussies are much better!(

    • Ridiculous Panda on 21/09/2023 - 14:53

        Not sure if that is always a good thing, especially if the games involve EPL teams (vs other teams not from the same league). I find the commentary bias can be extreme at times.

    • happyhammer on 21/09/2023 - 17:46

      Confirmed. We do this every year. Costs $9 a month each for 4k Stan+sports.

  • rabkoa on 21/09/2023 - 12:43

    I had this setup last year but find recently Paramount Plus gave proxy vpn errors while live streaming UCL.

    Replay or watching movies/tv are fine. Maybe it's with my VPN provider (VanishedVPN).

    Also took them a long time (few hours) to put up highlight+extra.

    Stan is better but it is also more pricy. Good if you can split the cost with few others.

    I used to subscribe to the US version of Paramount+ for the UCL football. My comments:

    You need to install the US version of the application on your Android device (I used a Vodafone TV). I had to side-load the APK. Annoyingly the app would need to be updated semi-regularly in order for it to continue to work so it was time consuming having to find the latest version .APK and then side-load it. I think the app is also available via Aptoide so that might be a better way of keeping the app up to date.

    The picture quality/frame rate was not pleasant to watch.

    It sometimes took a long time for replays for the UCL to appear in the list.

    I used a smart DNS (Getflix.com.au) to access Paramount+ instead of a VPN. I needed to contact Getflix and use a specific region's DNS servers (they didn't work with the Australian ones I tried)

    I did this for 2 years. This year I am sharing a Stan + Sport subscription for $9 a month and found the experience much more enjoyable.
