There's just one day left to get 50% off Paramount+ plans if you subscribe annually, which will give you access to all Champions League matches, select live Sunday NFL games, and the full catalog of on-demand CBS content. If you haven't picked up a subscription yet, you're in luck, since Paramount+ has extended the deal by one day.

• Save 50% on subscriptions at Paramount+

Paramount+ is the streaming home for all things CBS, from flagship dramas like Blue Bloods and Criminal Minds to the 100 regular-season NFL games scheduled to air on the network this season. It also has every match of Europe's elite Champions League soccer tournament. Paramount+ offers all of that in one place for those without cable, plus several original shows, Showtime perks, and other live TV options, depending on which plan you choose.

Until September 24, 2024, both tiers of Paramount+ are available for half-off if you sign up for an annual contract and use promo code FALL50. Below, we've outlined the exact savings and highlighted what you'll get with each available Paramount+ plan. And no matter which option you choose, you can try it out for free for one week.

Paramount+ Essential is available for just $30 (compared to the usual $60), while Paramount+ with Showtime is listed for $60 (compared to the usual $120). If you choose either of these plans, you'll pay the fee upfront (after the seven-day free trial is over) and receive Paramount+ for an entire year. Subscriptions will renew at whatever the standard rate is this time next year.

What comes with a Paramount+ Essential plan?

The Paramount+ Essential plan is all about on-demand content. The plan offers the entire catalog of CBS and Paramount+ original shows, and several recently released films from Paramount Pictures. While live streaming CBS is reserved for the next tier, which we dig into below, the Essential plan does allow subscribers to live stream all of CBS' NFL games (as long as they're broadcast on your local CBS station).

This is also the case for live UEFA Champions League matches. You won't be able to watch your favorite CBS dramas and comedies live, but they'll be available to stream on-demand with this plan by the next day. The Essential tier comes with ads for both live and on-demand content.

What comes with a Paramount+ with Showtime plan?

As you might have guessed from the name, the Paramount+ with Showtime tier offers all Showtime original TV series and movies in addition to the full suite of CBS and Paramount+ content. Everything on-demand is available to watch ad-free. However, the biggest game changer for the With Showtime plan is the ability to live stream your local CBS station 24/7. This means you can watch every new episode of NCIS or Big Brother live without having to wait until the next day.

As with the Essential plan, you can watch all of the available NFL on CBS games live through your local CBS affiliate. The With Showtime plan means that this will also be true for other major games held on the network, including March Madness and select weekend WNBA games.

Is there a free trial?

Paramount+ has a one-week free trial for all plans. This includes annual plans and the FALL50 deal. You'll still need to give your payment information when you sign up, but you shouldn't be charged if you cancel within seven days. As is the case with most streaming service free trials, the trial is only available to first-time customers. Former subscribers will be billed immediately after they sign up.

Who is eligible for the deal?

New and former subscribers are eligible for the Paramount+ annual deal. This means that if you've had an account in the past, you can still get the deal if you commit to an annual plan. However, as we mentioned above, the free trial is only for new subscribers.

How much are monthly plans?

We've broken down everything you need to know about Paramount+'s annual plans, from the current deal to the usual rates, but the streaming service also offers monthly subscriptions to both plans, which you can cancel at any time. The Paramount+ Essential plan typically costs $8 a month, and the Paramount+ with Showtime tier usually costs $13 a month. Like the annual subscriptions, both options include a one-week free trial for new customers.
