Disney+ price: the basics

After its initial launch in the US almost seven years ago, the price of Disney+ has only in one direction: up.

As of July 2026, those in the US have to spend $11.99 per month for its ad-supported plan and $15.99 every 30 days for the ad-free tier. You're looking at $189.99 for an annual subscription for the latter experience, too.

In the UK, an ad-based subscription costs £5.99 a month, the standard ad-free tier is £9.99 per month, and the ad-free premium plan will set you back £14.99 per month. Annually, the ad-free tiers are £99.90 and £149.90 respectively.

As for the rest of the world, here's how much a monthly subscription to Disney+'s ad-supported tier will set you back:

• US: from $11.99 a month with ads
• UK: from £5.99 a month with ads
• Europe: from €5.99 a month with ads
• Canada: from CA$8.99 a month with ads
• Australia: from AU$9.99 a month with ads
• New Zealand: from NZ$9.99 a month with ads

Disney+ deals: are there any available?

Not in the traditional sense. There is a way to save money, but you'll have take advantage of the Disney+ password sharing crackdown to do so.

Don't know what that is? Let me explain: in 2024, Disney began cracking down on account sharing. Essentially, that means you can no longer access the account of anyone who lives in a separate household to you, and vice versa. Family members and/or friends who wish to continue using your account — or, again, vice versa — needed to be added to an existing subscription as an Extra Member.

You can't do that for free, either. In the US, an additional $6.99 (with ads) and $9.99 (without ads) per month is needed to add a Extra Member to someone's account. Meanwhile, those in the UK need to fork out £4.99 for the ad-supported tier, or £5.99 every 30 days for the ad-free offerings.

Okay, but how can this save you some money? if you split the cost of a monthly subscription between everyone who wants to use the same account, you'll not only share the financial burden, but also keep some cash in your back pocket. Instead of paying $9.99 a month for the ad-free tier, then, two of you can spend just $4.98 every 30 days simply by adding the other person to one of your existing accounts. Simple!

How much does Disney+ cost in the US?

Here's what you need to know about the price of Disney+ — and the features that come as part of the tier you sign up for — stateside:

You can enjoy even more content if you pick one of the many Disney+ bundles that are available, too. Purchasing one will get you access to one or more additional streaming services, and be a cost-effective way of subscribing to multiple platforms as you aren't signing up to them individually.

How does the Disney+ price compare to other streamers?

Not sure whether you should pick Disney+ over its streaming rivals? I don't blame you. Without signing up — or, if one is available, making use of a free trial — to a specific platform to see what new movies and TV shows they offer, you might have choice paralysis ahead of making the big decision.

That's where I come in. Below, I've rounded up each platform's cheapest ad-free tier and their price points, so you can compare them and make a more informed decision on which one you should go for, especially if funds are tight.

Is Disney+ worth the price?

In short: yes, but only just. Disney+ isn't cheap on the ad-free subscription front but, if you can stomach adverts and are working to a budget, its ad-supported plan is a great alternative.

As one of the oldest studios around, Disney has built up an extensive — and mostly excellent — back catalog of films and shows.

Animation-wise, there are lots of classic animated Disney movies and Pixar delights to enjoy. Disney+ is also home to numerous big franchises, including Star Wars and Marvel, its own original movies and TV shows, and flora-, fauna-, and location-based documentaries by way of National Geographic. It even features adult-oriented content via the recently integrated Hulu app (outside of the US), too, so it's not the completely kid-friendly streamer that many people make it out to be.

Disney+ doesn't license content from its competitors, so you won't be able to stream originals from the likes of Netflix and Prime Video. Frankly, though, it doesn't need to. There's over a century's worth of content to enjoy on the service, so a Disney+ subscription is definitely worth considering.

And, hey, if you're not fussed on what's new on the platform for any given month, you can cancel your Disney+ subscription and reopen your account when there's something that piques your interest.
