If you're thinking of going solo with STARZ, the service is currently running a limited-time deal where you can get it for just $5/month for the first three months, saving you 55%. Or, you can lock in $20 for six months, which slices off 70% compared to the standard monthly rate. After those three months, the price reverts to the regular $11/month or $46 for six months. Remember, this sweet offer doesn't include a free trial.

Read on to discover how you can still grab a STARZ free trial by bundling it with other streaming services, and everything else you need to know about getting the best bang for your buck with STARZ.

STARZ Free Trial

So here's the scoop: STARZ doesn't have a free trial on its own right now. But don't worry — there are other ways to get your free trial fix.


STARZ Free Trial with Hulu

Hulu subscribers can tack on STARZ to any Hulu plan, starting at $8/month for the basic streaming plan with ads. STARZ on Hulu comes with a seven-day free trial for new subscribers, followed by a monthly fee of $10.


STARZ Free Trial with Amazon Prime Video

Amazon Prime members, rejoice! Through Prime Video Channels, you can score a seven-day free trial of STARZ. After the trial, you can enjoy STARZ for just $11/month.


STARZ Free Trial with Fubo

Fubo, known for its robust sports lineup, also offers STARZ as an add-on. New subscribers can get a seven-day free trial, after which it will cost $11/month.


STARZ Free Trial with DIRECTV STREAM

If you're a DIRECTV STREAM user with the Ultimate package, STARZ is already part of your $90/month (for a limited time) lineup, which also offers over 160 other channels. DIRECTV STREAM doesn't offer its own library of content outside of STARZ and other add-ons, but this current deal makes this option extremely worth it especially while it's football season. New subscribers to the Entertainment and Choice packages can get STARZ free for the first three months, with the price bumping up to $11/month afterward.


STARZ Free Trial with Disney+

Although STARZ isn't directly available through Disney+, you can still access it by adding it to your Hulu package when you opt for The Disney Bundle. But heads up — there's no free trial for STARZ through this route.


STARZ Free Trial with Roku

If Roku is your streaming weapon of choice, you're in luck. You can add STARZ to your Roku setup and enjoy a seven-day free trial. After that, the subscription will cost you $10/month.


STARZ Bundles and Deals

While STARZ doesn't offer a dedicated bundle on its own, you'll often find it as an add-on with other streaming services. Whether you're using Hulu, Prime Video, or Fubo, you can usually bundle STARZ with these platforms to save a little extra. Just remember, these deals typically only last for a limited time, so make sure to check the fine print before subscribing.

Our Final Take

If you're thinking about adding STARZ to your streaming rotation, now's a great time with the current deal offering STARZ at $5/month for the first three months. At just $11/month thereafter, it's still one of the more affordable premium streaming services out there. But which service gives you the best deal? Definitely DIRECTV STREAM's Ultimate package. At just $90/month for a limited time, you can get over 160 channels plus STARZ with a three-month free trial. Otherwise, if you're looking for variety, Hulu's STARZ add-on at $10/month is another solid option, especially if you're already on Hulu.

Ready to dive into some STARZ originals and blockbuster movies? There's no better time to give it a shot.
