Paramount+ plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | $5.99/month | 2 | Entry tier |
| With Showtime | $11.99/month | 3 | +$6/month, 3 more features |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.
Essential
$5.99/monthThe entry tier. It covers limited ads, full library.
With Showtime
$11.99/monthOver Essential, this tier adds:
- Ad-free
- Showtime
- Downloads

People bring Paramount+ in for tv streaming, sports, kids content. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Paramount+ are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
Before you pay for Paramount+
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 2 tiers between $5.99/month and $11.99/month, with the jump itemised above. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Paramount+ against the tools that do have one before committing.
Paramount+ runs on web, ios, android, smart-tv, and is published by Paramount Global of New York, NY. The full record is on the Paramount+ review.
Paramount+ pricing questions
- How much does Paramount+ cost?
- Paramount+ publishes 2 tiers, from $5.99/month for Essential up to $11.99/month for With Showtime. The cheapest paid tier is $5.99/month.
- Does Paramount+ have a free plan?
- Not on the record we hold: Paramount+ is listed as subscription. Whether a free trial is offered is not something this record captures, so check the vendor's site.
- What is the difference between Essential and With Showtime on Paramount+?
- With Showtime costs $11.99/month against $5.99/month, and adds ad-free, showtime, downloads.
- Is the With Showtime plan on Paramount+ worth it?
- That depends entirely on whether you need what it adds, which on the published record is ad-free, showtime, downloads. It costs $11.99/month against $5.99/month for Essential. Softwr has not used either tier, so this page can tell you what changes, not whether it is worth the difference to you.
- What am I actually paying for with Paramount+?
- The record lists 12 features across 4 areas: core, integrations, security, platform. In practice it is brought in for tv streaming, sports, kids content.
- Does Paramount+ charge per user?
- The record carries a price and a billing period for each of its 2 tiers, but not the unit that price is charged in. Per-seat and flat-rate billing look identical in this data, so check the vendor's page before budgeting for a team.
- Are these Paramount+ prices current?
- They are what the catalogue entry holds, refreshed when the entry is. Vendors change pricing without notice and nobody at Softwr re-verifies each tier by hand, so treat this as a structured summary and the vendor's own pricing page as the authority.
- What should I compare Paramount+ against before paying?
- Nothing else in this directory is filed close enough to Paramount+ to make a useful price comparison.
