Paramount’s streaming platform will increase its rates in several countries soon, amid changes that affect all areas of the company.
Changes continue to happen in Paramount Skydance Corporation. Last August, the merger between Paramount Global and Skydance was consolidated, with David Ellison assuming the role of CEO of the company.
The restructuring has already begun, starting with a wave of 1,000 layoffs that contrasts with the decision to openly bid for the acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery and all its subsidiaries.
Amidst the wave of changes, Paramount+house of Yellowstone Universe (except the main series, whose U.S. rights belong to Peacock), as well as other series Taylor Sheridan as King of Tulsa, Mayor of Kingstown any Landman: a raw dealwill undergo a new change.
Following the rate increase that Paramount+ experienced in 2024, the platform anticipates a new rise for early 2026 in its two subscription plans.
How much will Paramount+ cost in 2026?
Paramount+’s standard ad-supported plan will now cost $8.99one dollar more compared to the rate that remained in 2024, but three if we compare it to what it was before.
The price also goes up ad-free premium plan, ranging from $12.99 to $13.99. The increase also applies to annual subscriptions: The standard costs $89.99 per year, while the premium goes up to $139.99 per year..
The increase in the Paramount+ fee will, in principle, apply to United States, Canada and Australiabut it is not ruled out that it will also affect other regions where the platform provides services, such as Latin America. The increase is not expected to directly affect SkyShowtime users.
Paramount+ is one of the most important streaming platforms on the market, with more than 75 million subscribers. It’s not bad at all to have your presence so spread out (does not include SkyShowtimeFor example). This price increase is a risky move in the midst of the transition and with the company in everyone’s sights, but that is how it was decided.
