With the cost of living affecting our food, energy and water bills, non-essential purchases like streaming services have been taking a hit with many people cancelling their subscriptions.
Disney+ has cemented its place in the streaming sphere and is a strong rival to the likes ofNetflixandAmazon Prime. Alongside its extensive selection of Disney, Marvel and Star Wars series, Disney+ has also added many different films, TV shows and documentaries to its repertoire. It also comes with Star and National Geographic channels added on and has a lot of content that was previously on Netflix. See ourDisney+ reviewfor more.
I originally signed up to the free trial of Disney+ (which is no longer available) to watch the stage recording of Hamilton and after my free month ended, I couldn’t let it go! However, in an effort to save some money, I’ve found 6 ways to make the most out of my Disney+ subscription while also keeping the costs down.
P.S. For more money saving tips, check outthe best streaming service dealsavailable this month.
1. Pay annually instead of monthly
2. Get the Disney+ bundle
For more streaming services and capabilities, I’d suggest signing up to theDisney+ bundle. The Disney+ bundle is for US users and is $13.99 a month that gives access to Hulu and ESPN+. While this bundle deal isn’t currently available in the UK, Star is included in all monthly subscriptions so you’re still getting a wide range of kid-friendly and adult content. Of course, the Disney+ bundle is more expensive than the standard Disney+ plan but with access to multiple subscriptions, you technically get 3-5 services for a cheaper price within one bundle. If this is what you choose to do, I’d suggestcancelling Netflixor your other streaming services in favour of this bundle deal.
3. Share your account
If you live with someone or share a flat with people and you all want to use Disney+, share an account and split the bill each month or annually. Sharing a Disney+ account is a great way to save money and offers up to 7 different profiles at no extra cost. You can also stream on up to 4 devices at once so you can all use Disney+ at the same time without interfering with each other’s viewing. If you live with 2 or 3 people, you can split the bill each month and you’ll only pay around £2 - £3 each.

4. Get a free year of Disney+ with a new phone contract
If you’re looking for a new phone or contract, you can find Disney+ deals from mobile phone networks when you sign up with them. Whether you’re looking for aSIM only dealor aphone deal, you can get a new device and contract at a cheap price and with a streaming subscription deal thrown in. Depending on the handset or contract you want, you can get Disney+ for free for 12 months. Providers like Virgin, Carphone Warehouse, iD Mobiles and Three all offered this when the newSamsung GalaxyS22 was released so if you need a new phone, it doesn’t hurt to have a look at a free Disney+ subscription at the same time.
5. Download videos and customise your settings
6. Ask for a Disney+ subscription as a gift
If you’re a new user to Disney+, you can ask for aDisney+ gift subscriptionfor £79.90 / $79.99. Whether it’s your birthday, Christmas or an anniversary, ask for a year of Disney+ as a gift so you can watch all the content you want and you won’t have to pay for it for a full year.
