Tools and requirements for how to maximize these low-priced Disney+ deals
Step by step guide for how to make the most of a Disney+ deal
1. Lock in a deal before it goes
For subscribers in the UK, there’s a Disney+ deal that’s only around for a limited time, so engage hyper-speed and get the bargain price locked in now by heading to the Disney+ website or app and signing up for the Standard with Ads tier for just £1.99 per month for four months. But as we say, be quick, the offer’s only around until June 30.
While this particular deal is only applicable to UK subscribers, there’s still savings to be made for fans in the US, especially if you go for the Disney+ and Hulu bundle outlined above, that gets you both services for just $10.99 per month, totaling a saving of over $100 per year compared to subscribing to each service individually.
Those in Australia can also access some of the best streaming deals by taking advantage of one of the discounted annual plans for Disney+, which represent a 16% saving on the usual monthly price. See above for more details about each of the Disney+ deals available.
2. Pick which TV shows and movies you want to watch
The Disney+ library stretches to infinity and beyond, with viewers in the UK able to access content from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars and Nat Geo, not to mention the Star section, which contains all the less family friendly movies and shows from the likes of Fox, Hulu, FX, ABC and even shows not owned by Disney such as The Walking Dead, Motherland and The Durrells.
You can browse the streamer’s catalogue by genre, and some sections, such as Marvel and Star Wars are sorted into collections, making picking exactly what you want to watch a breeze. As you look through what’s on offer, be sure to make use of the handy Watchlist feature, allowing you to build a tailored list of your can’t miss movies and shows.
3. Create a monthly viewing calendar
For any limited-time offers, it’s important to bear in mind that the bargain price only covers a certain period of time of your subscription, so its worth creating a calendar of upcoming releases to be sure you catch them when they drop. You can, of course, continue your subscription, but for those that want to make the most of a Disney+ subscription for less than a year, here’s what to expect:
New Disney+ subscribers can expect to see in June the premiere of The Bear season 4 and Ironheart, while July sees two big anniversaries being celebrated with the arrival of documentary Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story and Disneyland Resort Walktroughs, taking viewers some of the parks biggest attractions to mark the OG Disney park’s 70th birthday.
Black Panther spin-off Eyes of Wakanda is set to arrive in August, as is Noah Hawley’s Xenemorph TV series Alien: Earth, with the latest installment in the LEGO Star Wars saga, Rebuild the Galaxy: Pieces of the Past, set to drop in September. Depending on when you sign up to the deal, you may even be able to catch the arrival of the Marvel Zombies animated show in early October too.
4. Pause or cancel other streaming subscriptions
With a limited time in which to make the most of the Disney+ library at a discounted price, you may want to think about pausing or canceling some of your other subscriptions.
With Disney’s streamer offering various discounts in the US and Australia, and such a rock-bottom fee in the UK, there’s huge savings to be made if you stick to the House of Mouse and don’t shell out elsewhere during the deal period.
5. Set a cancelation reminder
As mentioned, the UK Disney+ deal only bags you a four months at the reduced price, so to avoid the price hike be sure to set a reminder to cancel before the end of the discounted period.
You can, of course, continue with your subscription, but after the four month price cut, the same tier will automatically revert to £4.99 per month.
