Optus Sport has handed off the rights to all their content over to Stan, effective 1 August.

Having a look at SubHub, it looks like there is a deal for Optus customers to sign up for Stan at a discounted rate that includes all of Stan's content up until January. If I'm reading the FAQ right, the $9.99/month will still be charged after January but you'll lose access to everything else (I'm assuming that means Stan's current sport offering).

Note that this deal is for new Stan subscriptions only, it seems. It does say also for returning but according to the A-League subreddit, there have been issues with signup up using existing accounts.

Relevant bits of the FAQ:

Will I still have access to Optus Sport on Stan if I’m no longer with Optus?

No, Optus Sport on Stan is only available to eligible Optus customers while you remain an Optus customer. If you cancel your eligible Optus service/s, your Optus Sport on Stan subscription will be cancelled at the end of your current Optus subscription cycle, and you won’t be eligible to re-subscribe. You will be able to access the same football content by subscribing directly to Stan Sport.

What happens to my Optus Sport on Stan subscription after January 2026?

Your access to Stan Entertainment and Stan Sport ends on 8 January 2026. After that time, your Optus Sport on Stan subscription will only provide access to the Optus Sport football content and you will continue to be billed $9.99/month.

Can I choose to not activate my Optus Sport on Stan subscription today and sign up later?

Yes, you have the option to access Optus Sport on Stan any time before the end of the 2027/28 Premier League season by subscribing via SubHub, provided you remain an Optus customer with eligible services.

    Hmm, so on SubHub it says: Includes Stan Premium + Stan Sport until Jan 2026. Available to new and returning Stan customers

    Yet at checkout as a returning customer I get quoted the full price :(

    • Joe Lighty on 30/06/2025 - 12:23

      Same issue for me.

      • jhnsta on 30/06/2025 - 22:09

        They are terrible. Thumbnails always have the winning team, highlights never do the match any justice. Absolute amateurs.

  • Soldier on 30/06/2025 - 12:52

    confused about this: "until 8/1/26 (Optus Sport content only after)"

    what does it mean by Optus Sport content only after? meaning we will still be optus sport customers only for the sport section on Stan?

    • rith on 30/06/2025 - 12:53
      +2

      My assumption is that it's all the stuff Optus Sport has now, so Premier League, etc. but not the Champions League and anything Stan currently has.

      • Soldier on 30/06/2025 - 13:12

        still confused, isn't it that OS is closing, hence all thier rights are on Stan, and basically OS will stop billing us from next month

        • rith on 30/06/2025 - 13:17
          +2

          Yes, but it seems like there is a sub-product called "Optus Sport on Stan", which reads as though it's everything you get through Optus Sport now, but just accessed through Stan.

            +5

            @rith: It seems to me that part of Optus agreeing to pay $40m of the $100m annual licence fee ongoing, was that Stan had to offer their customers a $9.99 EPL package , ie so they can try and keep customers to justify subsidising the rights they no longer own

  • Kim88 on 30/06/2025 - 12:53

    Thanks for reminding me to unsubscribe. I’m going to look for an alternative source for EPL though…

      Was going to pounce on nbc but then realised it's only selected matches

  • JAF on 30/06/2025 - 12:53

    This should mean some premier league streamed in 4K correct? That’s exciting! Stan sport issue where audio goes out of sync with what’s happening on the screen drives me nuts though I hope they fix that

  • Kanjus on 30/06/2025 - 12:53

        It's the same worldwide. Only select matches are filmed in 4k, usually the sky sports ones.

              @Kanjus: From memory in the uk it is broadcast dependent as when setanta and espn had rights there was limited hd etc.

              • Kanjus on 02/07/2025 - 06:39

                @Chris87: Not anymore. PL now produces the content. Broadcasters bid for various packages

      Hello 480p.

      Was watching the community shield last not on my nvidia shield and the only options were Auto, Med SD and Low SD. Same when I tried watching the seaon review and preview.

      I can watch movies and tv in Ultra, High, Med and Low though. I contacted Stan and they said

      Thanks for reaching out!

      This match is limited to SD as per rightsholder privileges. Rest assured that our HD and 4K UHD coverage will commence next weekend with the Premier League!

          Are you on prepaid or postpaid? Unfortunately it's only for postpaid customers, so that might be why. I don't imagine previous Optus Sport membership makes a difference.

      • Zivko on 30/06/2025 - 14:07

        Ah, so there’s a pre-requisite of having Optus Sport.

      You'll supposedly get a pro-rata refund.

      I've also seen someone else get a deal of $25/month (until December) through their app. May or may not be worth it?

      • valco on 30/06/2025 - 23:50

        Optus sport app or stan app? When I go onto Stan just wants me to reactivate my old account. No deal on Optus sport App under promos

      Pro-rata refund on remaining amount of annual if it runs past 1st August. $25/month for Stan Premium + Stan Sport until 8 December only, after that normal Stan Sport pricing applies (currently $37 for Premium, $27-$32 other options)

  • pauly85 on 30/06/2025 - 13:12

    Happy to pay more for Stan Sport for the EPL, Optus Sport has been an absolute joke.

    • Soldier on 30/06/2025 - 13:14
      +9

      I've had the complete opposite experience, Optus Sport was perfect for me, it was better when they had there UCL too.
      I don't want to have to pay an "entrance" fee to then add-on sports with Stan, thier catalog is rubbish and I can watch what I want elsewhere

      • pauly85 on 30/06/2025 - 13:30
        +2

        Yeah it's a fair point.

        I'm happy to pay the premium for 4k Premier League and Champions League rather than what felt like 480p on Optus Sport.

        Optus also seemed to get more stringent with multiple screens recently, I kept getting booted off by the mate I shared a sub with.

        At least with the Optus 4k sub you get 4 screens, so splitting a subscription makes it more reasonable.

        • Droz on 30/06/2025 - 17:47

          Not all games will be in 4k.

          Optus was 720p in general, but replays were often 1080p.

          You could get 4k if you watched on your phone through optus 5g mobile (!)

          You could stream in 1080p live matches on the Fetch and possibly the Apple TV.

          You could stream in 1080p with the Kodi plugin, but it wasn't auto bandwidth so sometimes it would crap out - Optus Sports app would throttle up and down depending on what was going on (at least it would on my Nvidia Shield).

          The shield was also great with the AI upscaling, so even when the resolution dropped it would just artificially boost it back up, and it was great.

  • The Hobo on 30/06/2025 - 15:15

    What i'm understanding is that Optus customers can continue to access Optus Sport (via Stan) for $9.99 ongoing.

    However until January, the $9.99 also nets you Stans full catalogue of entertainment and sports. Then it drops off and you've just got optus sport via Stan left over.

    Is that accurate?

    • rith on 30/06/2025 - 16:08

      That was my reading of it too.

    • Gamedeals on 30/06/2025 - 16:30

      This is what it says on Subhub.

      Until 8 January 2026, your Optus Sport on Stan subscription will also automatically give you access to Stan Entertainment Premium and Stan Sport for no additional charge.

  • basilv on 30/06/2025 - 16:31

      • sparky347 on 30/06/2025 - 17:28

        I'm all signed up too. Used a previously registered email as well - even with old password rules - no caps, no special.

        The whole Stan catalogue appears to be available - although I'm not really familiar with it. Currently watching UCL final replay and it seems to be in 4K, although it doesn't say - it only says 'High'

        The catalogue doesn't change between Stan tiers. What changes is the number of simultaneous streams, the max resolution and number of download devices

    • ticksebolo on 30/06/2025 - 17:11

      What was the process?

      Did you click through Subhub, get redirected to Stan, Login and then reactivate? Despite it showing the regular monthly subscription and not the discounted $9.99 deal?

      EDIT: NVM, I can see that they have fixed the login jump-off in Stan to pick-up the $9.99 deal, which wasn't the case earlier in the day. Only 46 more days till the EPL kicks-off again… hurrah!

      • chromium on 30/06/2025 - 17:15

        I think they might have fixed something. I was able to activate via sub hub using my existsing email address, which was the same one I used for both Optus Sport and Stan previously. I got one month free Stan and will start getting charged $9.99 from July 30. I can access all Stan content now.
