Paramount+, the streaming service that launched in the UK last week, is now offering a free trial of 30 days, instead of the usual 7, by using a special coupon.
Since this is a limited-time deal, it’s unclear yet how long the coupon is going to last. Furthermore, it doesn’t currently work on every platform, so see the full instructions on how to use it below.
Normally, Paramount+ offers a free trial of just 7 days, both here in the UK and in the US.
This week, Paramount announced a free 30-days trial for XBOX Game Pass members – but the audience there is limited.
By using one of the two coupons that are still working as of this writing, all UK users can get the free month – as long as they’re not already registered to the service.
What Is Paramount+?
Paramount+ is a streaming service that offers content from CBS, Showtime and Paramount Pictures, as well as several exclusive, original programmes.
In the UK, the service launched with 8,000 hours of content – you can see the FULL list of Paramount+ UK content here.
Paramount+ costs £6.99/month or £69.90/year in the UK. As mentioned, there’s usually a 7-days free trial that’s available to all new customers.
The standalone Paramount+ app is available on most of the major streaming devices, and you can sign up either directly via the Paramount+ app/website, or via Amazon Prime Video Channels.
Do note that while the 7-days trial is also available on the Prime Video Channels version of Paramount+, the 30-days coupon is not going to work on the Prime Video version.
Sky Cinema customers, who also have Sky Q or Sky Glass, can get Paramount+ for free.
How To Get Paramount+ Free For 30 Days
In the US, Paramount+ regularly has extended 30-days free trials, either directly or by using a special coupon.
This week, at least two coupons that were created to celebrate the launch of new seasons and programmes on the service, are also working on the UK version of Paramount+.
The first coupon code is SHORE, used to celebrate the launch of All Stare Shore, Season 3 –

The second coupon code is NACHOS, in celebration of the new Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe special.

To use one of these coupons and get your free 30-days trial, you need to first sign-up and create your account on Paramount+ UK.
Note that in order to use the coupon, you have to use the browser version of the site (either on a desktop computer or on your phone’s browser) – it doesn’t seem to work on the app (but once you sign up, you can then use the service on all the supported streaming devices).
Once you create your account, you need to pick a plan – in this case, it’s the monthly plan, as you want to try it for free.
The last step is to enter your details – including payment details – and then, on the right side, click the part that says “Have a promotional code?”, and enter one of the two coupons (either SHORE or NACHOS).
If the code is still working, you should see your Trial Period change from 7 days free to 1 Month Free.
If the Trial Period remains ‘7 Days Free’, then it means the codes are no longer valid.
It’s also important to remember that once your trial period is over – either the regular 7 days or the full month – you will be automatically billed £6.99 for the next month, unless you cancel BEFORE that happens.
