Hulu has announced the return of their Live TV free trial. New and eligible returning subscribers can access the 3 day free trial for Hulu + Live TV. During the Free Trial period, subscribers will experience Hulu + Live TV the same way that any paid subscriber would, with access to over 95 live channels as well as Hulu’s on-demand library, Disney Plus, and ESPN Plus all in one plan.
There is a reason Hulu is one of the most popular streaming services today. Its vast library of critically acclaimed originals and offerings from a wide range of networks makes it a great value compared to many competitors. If you want access to plenty of shows and movies of all kinds, Hulu is a great choice.
The standard Hulu free trial is one of the most generous offers currently available for on-demand services. You can try the streaming service completely free, with no commitment, for 30 days. That gives you plenty of time to binge your new show or check out dozens of movies on the platform before you spend any money at all.
Hulu’s free trial gives you full access to the streamer’s on-demand library, which features thousands of TV show episodes and movie titles. You can access originals like “Palm Springs” and “The Handmaid’s Tale” or stream episodes of “Abbot Elementary” and “The Bachelorette” the day after they air on ABC. All plans allow you to stream on two screens simultaneously, so you can share your free Hulu trial with someone else in your household.
Hulu’s 30-day free trial is available for its ad-supported plan and the Hulu (No Ads) plan. Only the latter option allows you to download content for offline viewing. There’s no free trial for Hulu + Live TV. Don't miss out on the rare opportunity to test out Hulu's Live TV plans as well with the new 3-day free trial. Perfect for the NBA Playoffs starting up this week.
Hulu’s free trial is only available to new subscribers, so if you’ve used your email to sign up for Hulu before, you won’t be able to enjoy another free trial. To sign up for a new account, visit Hulu’s sign-up page and select your plan. You’ll need to enter your email, name, birthdate and create a password, then provide your credit card information. Once you complete the sign-up process, you can select your favorite shows and genres to customize your Hulu home page.
With your free Hulu trial, you won’t be charged until the end of your free trial. You can cancel at any time during your 3 or 30 days to avoid being charged for an ongoing subscription.
Hulu is the only major streaming platform to still offer a full 30-day trial. Many streamers have stopped offering free trials entirely or only offer seven-day free-look periods. Netflix and Peacock, for example, no longer offer free trials, while Paramount Plus and Fubo allow users to test them out for a week.
A Hulu free trial gives you much longer to explore its library than you get with other competitors, and there is no risk or commitment involved.
After your 3 or 30-day free trial of Hulu ends, you’ll automatically begin paying your monthly subscription fee on the credit card you used to sign up to continue using the service. Your monthly rate depends on the plan you choose:
The primary difference between these plans is that the No Ads plan allows you to watch most on-demand content ad-free. You can also download content for offline viewing with this plan. In either case, you’ll have full access to Hulu’s library of shows and movies.
Hulu also offers Hulu + Live TV plans, which include access to more than 95 live TV channels, along with Disney Plus and ESPN Plus. The live TV streaming plans don’t currently offer a free trial.
Hulu has a special deal, just for college students. With the Hulu Student Deal, you can get the Hulu (With Ads) plan for 75% off the regular price, bringing the monthly price down to just $1.99 per month. (Only students enrolled at a US Title IV accredited college or university are eligible for our Hulu Student discount.)
To get the deal, click on “Sign Up Now” on the Hulu Student page and create an account. You’ll be redirected to Sheer ID to verify your student status. Then, you can start streaming Hulu content on a smart TV, computer, tablet, mobile device, or game console.
Considering that your Hulu free trial provides 3 days of live TV streaming or 30 days of full access to one of the best on-demand libraries available, you’ve really got nothing to lose by trying it out. You can explore countless shows and movies with no commitment to decide whether Hulu is right for you.
As long as you cancel your plan before the end of the trial period, you won’t pay a dime. This is still one of the best offers you can find from any streaming service, and it’s well worth it.
As of April 15, Hulu + Live TV has brought back their free trial for new users to test out the live TV service for 3-days. This is a rare occurrence so don't miss out on your chance to test it out and tune into the NBA or NHL Playoffs starting this week.
It’s easy to cancel your Hulu account. Simply visit your Hulu account page (or the third-party service you used to sign up) and follow the steps to cancel your plan. You’ll still have access to your account until your current billing cycle ends.
You can add Disney Plus to your Hulu plan for only $2 more per month ($9.99). Alternatively, you can add Disney Plus and ESPN Plus for $5 more per month ($14.99) or upgrade to all three with no ads on Hulu or Disney Plus for a total of $24.99 per month.
