In this extensive guide, you'll find out how much you'll have to pay to sign up to the variety of tiers and/or bundles that Disney+ has to offer. I'll also answer your biggest questions about other aspects of the platform, too, including whether a free trial is available to take advantage of, how Disney's primary streamer compares to its competitors, and more.

So, without further ado, here's everything you need to know about Disney+ and its numerous price points.

Disney+ prices: the basics

Since its initial US launch in November 2019, the price of Disney+ has fluctuated. By that, I mean it's steadily risen, rather than go up and/or down in cost.

The most recent Disney+ price rise arrived in October 2024, which saw US subscribers forced to pay an extra one or two dollars, depending on which tier they signed up for. That means that, as of May 2025, the ad-supported plan now costs $9.99 a month, while the ad-free tier will set you back $15.99 a month.

A similar price jump hit UK consumers, too. These days, the Standard (without ads) plan is £8.99 per month and the Premium plan costs £12.99 every 30 days. Thankfully, the Standard With Ads plan remained unchanged, with this option setting you back just £4.99 per month, so you can still stream the best Disney+ movies and best Disney+ shows for a relatively cheap fee as long as you don't mind the off advert break.

As for Australian customers, Disney+ became more expensive Down Under over a year ago in March 2024. Well, by way of a new more expensive tier, anyway. Should you want to stream Disney+ in 4K and with Dolby Atmos support, you'll have to spend spend AU$17.99 per month for the privilege. The Standard plan still costs AU$13.99 per month, though.

For more details on the cheapest plans available in some other nations, check out the list below:

• US: from $9.99 a month with ads
• UK: from £4.99 a month with ads
• Europe: from €5.99 a month with ads
• Canada: from CA$8.99 a month with ads
• Australia: from AU$13.99 a month with ads
• New Zealand: from NZ$14.99 a month with ads

Last year's price hikes came amid the backdrop of the global rollout of Disney+'s own password sharing crackdown, too. Indeed, last September, Disney took a page out of the Netflix playbook and stopped people, who live in a separate household to you, from using your account for free.

Since then, anyone who wants to use your Disney+ account, but doesn't live with you, needs to be added as an 'Extra Member' to your subscription. US users will need to stump an additional $6.99 (with ads) and $9.99 (without ads) per month, while UK consumers will need to fork out £3.99 (with ads) or £4.99 (without ads) every 30 days.

Of course, this is a far cheaper alternative than someone signing up for their own account and I'm sure you'll be billing those extra members for the additional cost you'll have to pay. Nevertheless, it stings that the world's leading streamers are coaxing more money out of hard-working people.

How does the Disney+ price compare to other streamers?

Here's an overview of how the cost of signing up to the Disney+ ad-free plan compares to the streaming giant's rivals (in the US, anyway):

How does the Disney+ price compare to Netflix?

With a comparatively slender library, but packed full of commercially lucrative franchises and content from major film studios, Disney+ should be the biggest threat to Netflix's streaming domination.

However, Disney+ is lagging way behind its competitor from a subscriber number perspective. As of late 2024, Netflix boasts over 300 million users, whereas Disney+ can only shout about the fact that it has around 125 million customers.

Netflix's content library is also far bigger than that of Disney+. Indeed, with a never-ending stream of new Netflix movies and TV Originals, our best Netflix movies and best Netflix shows guides are updated on a more regular basis than their Disney+ counterparts. Suffice it to say, Disney's primary streamer just can't compete on this front, either.

Cost wise, Netflix also comes out on top with its mightily affordable $6.99 a month for a with-ads plan. As for the ad-free experience, Netflix is only slightly cheaper at $15.49 compared to Disney+'s $15.99, but that's still a 50 cent saving. Hey, it all adds up!

How does Disney+ price compare to Prime Video?

Online behemoth Amazon’s online video service has gone on to produce numerous TV hits including The Rings of Power, The Boys and Fallout.

It can also boast a much deeper library than Disney+, with four times as many movies and access to top-notch classic TV. Check out our new Prime Video movies, best Prime Video movies, and best Prime Video shows guides to see what's new and/or worth watching on the service.

From a cost standpoint, an Amazon Prime membership is priced at $14.99 per month or $139 per year.

This might seem expensive compared to Disney+, but it also includes Amazon Prime membership, giving you access to same-day or one-day shipping on Amazon.com purchases, plus photo storage and access to exclusive deals at times like on Amazon Prime Day, and the ability to stream content to two devices at once on Prime Video. Simply put, it's more than just a streaming platform.

If you want to open a Prime Video account only, you can also do so for $8.99 a month. It's a much cheaper alternative to the above, but you'll only get access to Prime Video, so you can't take advantage of everything else that an Amazon Prime membership offers.

How does Disney+ price compare to HBO Max?

In its current form, Max is another superb streaming option. It provides access to a seemingly infinite amount of content from Warner Bros. Discovery, so be sure to read our best Max movies and best Max shows guides to get a flavor for what's on offer. The super streamer will soon be rechristened HBO Max, too, which may or may not impact the various Max price options currently on offer.

For now, you can sign up to Max for $9.99 a month for its With Ads plan, or select its Ad-Free plan for $16.99 a month. If you want to stream in 4K, though, the Ultimate Ad-Free plan, which costs $20.99 a month, is the subscription plan you'll want to purchase. Disney+ offers 4K streaming at no extra cost, thereby making it a more tempting streamer to sign up to.

Unsurprisingly, these tiers are all more expensive than what Disney+ offers. That's especially true if you opt to buy the Disney+, Hulu, and Max Bundle, which you can get for three dollars cheaper if you buy the ad-supported bundle. Max may be viewed as the prestige streamer of choice, but you'll have to pay top dollar for it, so Disney+ is certainly a more viable option from a cost-cutting viewpoint.

How does Disney+ price compare to Apple TV+? 

Apple TV+ has slowly become a force to be reckoned with in the streaming sphere. Initially viewed as yet another platform to subscribe to, it's given us plenty of reasons to sign up for an account – or, if you want to try before you buy, take advantage of one of many great Apple TV+ free trials.

Indeed, from some of the best shows of recent times, including Severance and Ted Lasso, both of whom make it onto our best Apple TV+ shows list, to a growing selection of top-tier films (read our best Apple TV+ movies guide for more details), there are plenty of reasons to subscribe to Apple's streaming service.

Alright, so how much does it cost? Right now, it'll see you back $9.99 a month and $99.99 for an annual plan. This still manages to undercut most of its competitors, and it comes with no ads and 4K streams as the standard. Sure, Disney+'s ad-supporting plan is cheaper, but Apple is certainly in the conversation when it comes to cost-effectiveness.

How does Disney+ price compare to Hulu?

While it's owned by Disney, Hulu is, in some ways, one of Disney+'s biggest rivals.

With numerous award-winning TV Originals and films at its disposal, the ability to add the Hulu with Live TV package, which adds over 95 live TV channels, including live sports broadcasts, to your subscription, and three main pricing tiers; a basic $7.99-a-month ad-supported option, a $17.99 ad-free monthly tier, and the aforementioned Live TV package which starts at $76.99, Hulu definitely offers value for money.

Okay, the latter option is expensive, but you get heaps for that price, including a Disney+ subscription at no additional cost. That includes Disney+ (obviously), Hulu's on-demand library of best Hulu movies and best Hulu shows, and ESPN+. Not bad, eh?

Of course, you can also get the Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ Bundle from $16.99 a month, which is far cheaper than the Live TV package. So, signing up for this bundle is a surefire way to get even more content for the cost of, say, Max's ad-free plan.

What can you watch on Disney+?

The better question to ask is what you can't watch on Disney+.

Disney's primary streamer is home to a number of big franchises, such as Star Wars and Marvel, but it also caters to those who aren't fans of superheroes or Lucasfilm's iconic galaxy far, far away.

Indeed, whether it's Hulu Originals that are available to watch via Disney+ Star, the entire back catalog of Pixar movies, film offerings from 20th Century Studios and Searchlight Pictures, or new and classic Walt Disney animated movies, there's something for every type of genre fan on the platform.

Disney+ doesn't license content from its streaming rivals, so you won't be able to stream original projects from the likes of Netflix on it. Nevertheless, there's over a century's worth of content to enjoy from the comfort of your own home, so buying a Disney+ subscription is worth the investment .
