Whether you’re eager to catch Wicked: For Good‘s streaming release (March 20 on Peacock), tune into weekly episodes of SNL (plus reruns) or follow the 2025-26 NBA season, there are little-known ways to save big on Peacock — or even get it for free.
Best Peacock Deals 2026: Get Peacock Free With DirecTV
Starting strong with the standout promotion, customers who sign up for one of DirecTV’s signature packages — Entertainment, Choice, Ultimate or Premier — can get two months of the Movies Extra Pack + Peacock at no cost (a $19.98 value). Plus, DirecTV offers a five-day free trial for any plan, meaning new members can stream Peacock (and everything else the packages have to offer) at no cost during the trial period.
Here’s exactly how to claim the offer: Simply select your preferred signature package, then opt to add “Movies Extra Pack + Peacock Premium” where it instructs you to pick your add-ons. As indicated, you’ll automatically get two months of the Movies Extra Pack + Peacock included in your subscription (click here to see everything the add-on offers on top of Peacock). After two months, unless cancelled at any time, DirecTV’s Movies Extra Pack + Peacock will renew monthly at the then-prevailing rate, presently $9.99 per month plus tax.

Best Peacock Deals 2026: Peacock Student Discount, Young Adult Discount (Age 18-24)
Moving along to younger audiences, the NBCUniversal streamer not only offers a year-long student discount, but it also extends the same 45 percent price drop to users ages 18 to 24, officially called the Peacock Young Adult Discount. After 12 months, the plan auto-renews at the then-current annual rate.
Best Peacock Deals 2026: Apple TV and Peacock Bundle
On Oct. 20, 2025, the Apple TV and Peacock Bundle launched, meaning customers can now bundle the two services and save. Bundle options include Apple TV and Peacock Premium ($14.99 per month), and Apple TV and Peacock Premium Plus ($19.99 per month). Since Apple TV is currently $12.99 per month on its own, these bundles represent a discount of over 30 percent.
This bundle is a smart choice for Formula 1 fans as the 2026 season marks the start of F1 and Apple TV’s five-year streaming deal, where Apple TV is the exclusive U.S. home for every practice, qualifying, sprint and race.

Right now, eligible World or World Elite Mastercard holders can get a statement credit of $3 per month if they pay for Peacock Premium or Premium Plus with their card. The offer expires Dec. 2027.

At the back half of 2025, Peacock added a lower-priced Select tier for $7.99 per month, which includes current seasons of NBC and Bravo shows and select shows from the broader NBCUniversal library. This is in addition to the more popular ad-supported Premium tier for $10.99 monthly, and the ad-free Peacock Premium Plus package for $16.99 per month. For the best bang for your buck, opt for the annual plans ($79.99 to $169.99), which offer 12 months for the price of 10. See below for more on each plan.
Peacock Plans: Premium vs. Premium Plus
Both Peacock Premium and Premium Plus packages include access to over 80,000 hours of movies and TV show episodes, including brand-new and Oscar-winning films; next-day access to NBC and Bravo series such as Love Island, Vanderpump Rules and the entire Real Housewives franchise; and both new and past seasons of Peacock original series.
Peacock Premium also has over 50 channels and live sports, including MLB Sunday Leadoff, Premier League, Sunday Night Football and WWE. It was also the streaming home of the Women’s World Cup and the U.S. Gymnastics Championship.
Peacock’s Premium Plus tier includes all of the above, plus your local NBC channel live, no ads (except on select live TV shows) and the ability to download select titles to watch offline later.
