Paramount Plus prices plummet just in time for March Madness, now $3 per month

Paramount Plus has cut both its Essentials and Premium plans to $2.99 per month for the first two months, saving up to $11 on the pricier option. The promotion arrives just in time for 2026's March Madness action.

Coverage of the men's games is split between Paramount Plus and HBO Max (available via a YouTube TV free trial), so a subscription will be needed to catch all CBS games in the next few weeks.

Beyond live sports, Paramount Plus offers series such as Landman, South Park, Y: Marshals, The Madison and Yellowstone. The Premium tier also provides ad-free streaming in 4K, Showtime originals and live TV from CBS — described as bags of streaming for just $6 all in.

For comparison, the Disney Plus and Hulu bundle is available for $4.99 per month for three months, saving roughly $24 but extending the trial period. Peacock currently offers 12 months for the price of 10 on a full-year Premium membership ($109.99), or otherwise starts at $7.99 per month.
