How Much Does Paramount Plus Cost?

The streamer offers two different plans in both monthly and annual subscription options. All plans are eligible for the Paramount Plus free trial.

You can opt for the Paramount Plus Essential plan with ads for $5.99/month or $59.99/year; this plan does not include Showtime or your local live CBS station, but NFL on CBS and UEFA Champions League are available via separate live feeds.

Alternatively, you can watch ad-free by subscribing to the Paramount+ With Showtime plan for $11.99/month. The Paramount Plus With Showtime plan does include your local live CBS station. Though the plan is mostly ad-free, live TV streams will still have commercials, and a few shows include brief promotional interruptions to keep you in the loop on new and upcoming Paramount+ programming.
