Is There a Paramount Plus Free Trial in 2022?
paramount plus free trial icon

Paramount Plus has steadily been growing since its relaunch in 2021. Previously known as CBS All Access, the service offers plenty of content from Paramount-owned properties. That includes some old favorites like Frasier and it also features a drama based on the filming of The Godfather, The Offer, and much more original content too, like the forthcoming Halo TV series. If you're looking to try it out for free, read on while we take you through what you need to know.
Does Paramount Plus Have a Free Trial in 2022?
Currently, Paramount Plus offers a seven-day free trial available from two different sources. Users can choose to sign up for the trial via the Paramount Plus website, or they can choose to do so by adding it to their Amazon Prime plan. In the past, Paramount has offered longer free trials with some promo codes offering up to 30 days for free. Alternatively, Paramount Plus recently celebrated its first birthday by offering a month's trial for just $1 which -- while it isn't free -- works out as considerable value. It's worth checking around to see if any longer free trials are available through various other sources. Besides promo codes, some companies offer a Paramount Plus subscription alongside their existing service. For instance, T-Mobile and Sprint customers get a year's worth of the Paramount Plus ad-supported Essential plan included with their postpaid wireless and home internet plan. It's worth checking to see if you are eligible.

If you sign up for the Paramount Plus free trial, you are able to choose to either sign up for the Essential plan which is ad-supported and does not support 4K streaming, or you can sign up to the Premium plan which is commercial-free and allows you to download shows to watch offline (while your subscription is active) and watch 4K content. It makes sense to sign up for the Premium plan if you're simply trying things out for seven days.

Can You Get a Free Disney Plus Account in 2022?

Disney Plus is one of the absolute best streaming services and well worth the money. So, if you're wondering if you can get a free Disney Plus account, read on while we tell you what you need to know.
Can You Get a Free Disney Plus Account?
Okay, so there isn't a free Disney Plus account option. While some services may offer a free ad-supported plan with limited features, Disney Plus offers just the one plan -- $8 per month or $80 per year for all the Disney Plus you can watch. It's tremendous value but if you don't want or can't afford to pay then you're going to miss out on a free Disney Plus account. There isn't even a Disney Plus free trial anymore as Disney stopped those in 2021 after a hugely successful launch period.

However, there are some alternatives if you really don't want to pay, or at least pay extra for Disney Plus. At times, some other companies you may interact with offer free ways to watch Disney Plus. For instance, in November 2021, Amazon was offering a free six-month subscription to Disney Plus if you signed up to its Music Unlimited service. While that meant Disney Plus wasn't entirely free, you could enjoy Disney Plus on top of an Amazon Music Unlimited subscription. Ideal if you're looking to expand your streaming horizons for less. That offer has now ended but there are other options out there if you look around.

What is Paramount Plus? The Ultimate Beginner’s Guide

Previously known as CBS All Access, Paramount Plus is steadily becoming a streaming service worth paying attention to. Newly relaunched in 2021, it offers some great movies and shows even if it's not as high-profile as some alternatives. If you need to know more about it, read on while we answer pretty much every question you could possibly have about Paramount's streaming service.
What is Paramount Plus?
Paramount Plus's origins begin under a different name. The streaming service owned and operated by Paramount Global was first called CBS All Access. It launched on October 28 2014 before being expanded and rebranded as Paramount Plus on March 4, 2021, following the 2019 re-merger of CBS and Viacom. Since then, the service has gradually expanded both in terms of content and in terms of its reach. Originally launched in the U.S., the service has expanded to international markets, starting with Latin America and the already existing Canadian service. Since then, Nordic countries have followed along with Australia.

Paramount Plus offers quite a lot of content and all of it is, of course, owned by Paramount. Since its relaunch, it has offered true crime series such as The Real Criminal Minds, as well as a revival of the BET series, The Game, a drama based on Albert S. Ruddy's experiences filming The Godfather called The Offer, and much more. As expected from most streaming services, content is varied to cater to the whole family while ensuring there's something for every mood too. The service includes content from MTV, VH1, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, BET, and Smithsonian Channel, so there's generally something for everyone. In all, the catalog numbers more than 30,000 television series episodes and up to 1,000 film titles.
