Monthly Subscription

With a Disney+ monthly subscription, the price change is the most obvious. While they currently cost $6.99 a month, this subscription will go up to $7.99 later this month. If you’re looking to avoid the increase, then this is probably not the payment option you’ll want to choose

One-Year Subscription

If you want the most “bang for your buck” with Disney+ alone, then this is the subscription you need. Purchase your one-year subscription currently for $69.99 before the price increase. It saves about $14 as compared to paying monthly, and it’ll save you an additional $10 if you renew or purchase before the price goes up to $79.99 later in March.

The Hulu and ESPN+ Bundle

While ordering Disney+ this way won’t save you from the price increase, it will be able to save you money and get you three streaming services at once! For $12.99 a month ($13.99 starting in March), you can get Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ all together. If you’d prefer an ad-free Hulu experience, then upgrade for $18.99 a month ($19.99 in March).

Giving the Gift of Streaming

If you’re a first-time Disney+ subscriber or you’re purchasing a first-time subscription for someone else, then you can get the Disney+ gift card for $69.99. A price increase hasn’t specifically been announced for this one-year subscription card, but you should probably go ahead and purchase it to be safe. Keep in mind that this can only be redeemed by new subscribers.

There you have it, that’s everything you need to know about avoiding that Disney+ price hike! If you’re looking to save, we recommend that you go ahead and purchase your annual subscription now. In the meantime, we’ll make sure to keep you updated on all the latest Disney+ news!
