Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days aren’t just for tangible goods, you know. While yes, there are plenty of savings on style and apparel items and coffee goods to be had, you can also save big on premium add-ons to your Prime membership. Truly, Prime Day is also a major week for saving on streaming services.
If you’re someone who binge-watches the latest and greatest TV shows and you’re all out of content to stream on Netflix, we highly advise you to take advantage of one of these streaming deals below. Seriously. Right now, you can add a streaming service to your Prime Video subscription (free already if you have Prime, by the way) for as low as $2 a month. Prime Video is also offering big bundled discounts for those looking to subscription to multiple services, too!
Although most of these Prime Day streaming add-ons are discounted today, don’t forget, you can always cancel the subscriptions before they automatically renew and get every drop of your dollar’s worth for its duration. Consider these deals a glorified trial run and immediately add them to your cart before they expire on October 8!
Prices change quickly on Prime Day, so keep checking back to see the latest updates. Make sure to sign up for an Amazon Prime account to get the best deals.
Starz (73% off for 3 months)
Starz is home to some bold original series like “Outlander,” “Party Down,” and 50 Cent's “Power”, along with a constantly rotating library of blockbusters, like “Ballerina,” “Bring It On,” and “This Is The End.” This is a solid service for anyone wanting something new to binge, or to watch some films not available anywhere else. It's $3 a month for 3 months if you sign up for Prime Big Deal Days, and then $10.99/month afterward.
BET+ (63% off 3 months)
BET+ has plenty of entertainment including originals like “Tyler Perry's Ruthless,” iconic sitcoms like “Martin” and plenty of stand-up specials by Kevin Hart and Tyler Perry that you can't find anywhere else.
For Prime Big Deal Days, you can sign up for BET+ Premium at $3.99 a month for 3 months, then pay $10.99/month after that. The plan includes over 4,000 movies and episodes, weekly premieres, the ability to download content and four simultaneous streams. The lower-tiered, limited ad version, called BET+ Essential, is also on sale for $1.99 for 3 months, then $5.99 thereafter. This is a great time to catch up on premium BET content at a deep, deep discount.
Hallmark+ and Starz bundle (26% off monthly)
Imagine watching rom-coms and Christmas movies year-round. That's basically what Hallmark+ offers users who shamelessly love these cheesy made-for-TV films, mysteries and love stories. If the movie name “Mistletoe Murders” entices you, well, you're in the right place. This service is usually $7.99 a month.
Meanwhile, a Starz subscription costs $10.99 per month. Bundle them both on Prime Video and you can save 26% off a monthly subscription, paying only $13.99 a month!
AMC+ and Hallmark+ bundle (28% off)
I hope you like horror and zombies, because there's plenty of that on AMC+. Home of “The Walking Dead” and all of its expanded content, AMC+ also houses content from BBC America, IFC, Shudder and Sundance TV, so you can surely catch some grizzly stuff like “28 Days Later” and “Hannibal” while binge-watching AMC originals like “Mad Men”.
You can bundle this service and Hallmark+ for some shamelessly cheesy made-for-TV films for $12.99 per month after a 7-day free trail.
HBO Max and Starz Bundle (25% off)
HBO Max is all the rage these days, with shows like “The Last Of Us,” and “The Pitt” still sparking intense conversations. It's loaded with content from HBO, Adult Swim, Warner Bros., DC Comics properties, Harry Potter, Discovery Channel and more. A sub, without ads, is $16.99 a month.
If you wanna add “Outlander” and 50 Cent's “Power” to that HBO sub, set it up with Prime Video. Right now, you can sign up for a HBO Max and a Starz bundle in Prime Video and save 25% off the regular price of signing up for both separately. That's $20.99 a month, or $6.99 off your monthly sub.
Cinemax and HBO Max bundle (18% off)
Cinemax has a few action-packed original series like “Warrior” and “Banshee,” but its real bread and butter is a curated movie collection. A glance at JustWatch.com — a very useful site I highly recommend for anyone wanting to see what's on a streaming service at any given time — shows that it's currently home to newer releases like “Bullet Train” and “Civil War,” as well as horror flicks like “Midsommar,” “It Follows,” and “House of 1,000 Corpses.”
This premium add-on usually costs $10.99, but right now, you can bundle it with HBO Max for a total of $22 per month.
PBS Documentaries and PBS Masterpiece bundle (25% off monthly)
If you're over the age of, let's say, 5, you're likely tuning into PBS to check the latest headlines and catch some of its fantastic documentaries. Well, this niche streaming network is purely a catalog of that — enriching information and impressively detailed docs on any subject you could possibly want. Most notably, if there's a Ken Burns documentary, you can watch it here. That includes the documentarian's near 20-hour “Baseball,” fully restored in HD for the first time, and his latest master piece on “The Vietnam War.” A solo subscription to PBS Documentaries is usually $4.99 a month.
PBS Masterpiece is the classy, sophisticated streaming service from PBS. Chock full of period romances, mysteries and literary adaptations, it's home to several British and international dramas like “Grantchester” and “All Creatures Great and Small.” It costs $6.99 monthly.
Right now, if you bundle both services, you can take 25% off. After your 7-day free trial, you only pay $8.99/month afterward, down from $11.98.
MGM+ and MovieSphere+ bundle (28% off)
Owned by Amazon, MGM+ has a nice blend of movies you might've watched while flipping through cable channels in the '90s and aughts (“Signs,” “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” “Full Metal Jacket”), but mixed with plenty of award-nominated new releases (“Nickel Boys,” “American Fiction”) and several action flicks (literally every Bond movie ever). Basically, go here if you enjoy watching films more than television, because this is for the diehards who love Hollywood, old and new.
MovieSphere+ is one of those niche, hyper-focused streaming services you've probably never heard of, but that doesn't mean it's not worth signing up for. It's got plenty of Quentin Tarantino movies like “Kill Bill” and “Inglorious Bastards,” sprinkled with some cult classics like “Twilight” and “The Master.” It's really for the film fans out there looking for stuff they can't find elsewhere.
If you bundle these two services together today, you can nab them for $8.99 per month after a 7-day free trial.
