As part of Paramount’s “thank you” to American football fans, a new Paramount Plus subscription is 50% off when you sign up before September 6. With this discount in effect, you can expect to pay $30 per year for Paramount, or $2.50 per month.

This promotion is available to new Paramount Plus Essential and Paramount+ with Showtime subscribers. We also have a list of other Paramount Plus deals for you to peruse.

Why you should sign up for Paramount Plus

Paramount Plus is home to a massive library of movies, shows, and platform exclusives, with the collection made up of Paramount and CBS titles, as well as Comedy Central, MTV, and Nickelodeon. You’ll be able to download the Paramount Plus app on just about any mobile device, smart TV, or streaming device, and football fans are in for a treat: Not only will you be able to stream your local team’s game every week, but you’ll also be able to tune in for the NFL on the CBS 4:25 live window.

Paramount Plus hosts other sports content too, including American basketball, cricket, golf, and soccer.
