Hulu subscribers can currently add either HBO Max or Starz to their subscription for an additional $2.99 a month. The two add-on deals offer a good way to save while expanding the variety of content you have access to.
Key Takeaways
- Hulu subscribers can add HBO Max for $2.99/month for 12 months, saving around $8 each month compared to the usual $10.99 standalone price.
- Hulu subscribers can add Starz for $2.99/month for 12 months, saving around $8 each month compared to the usual $10.99 standalone price.
- While HBO Max and Starz are offering similar deals directly, Hulu’s add-on option can be useful for those who prefer combined billing and a streamlined streaming experience.
Unlike in past years, it doesn’t look like a standalone Hulu Black Friday deal is available this year. While it is possible to bundle Hulu and Disney+ for $4.99 a month, there’s no deal currently available for those just looking to stream Hulu.
For those already subscribed to Hulu, the streaming service is offering Black Friday discounts on two of its add-ons – HBO Max and Starz.
Adding HBO Max To Hulu
Normally priced at $10.99 a month, the option to add HBO Max to Hulu at just $2.99 a month results in massive saving on the usual cost.
The discount applies to the first 12 months making this a good way to save on the cost of HBO Max over the next year.
HBO Max on Hulu
$2.99/mo for 12 months
For reference, you don’t actually need to be signed up to Hulu to lock in a full year of HBO Max at this price, as HBO Max is offering the same deal to those that sign up directly.
Adding Starz To Hulu
Similar to HBO Max, Hulu is also offering the option to add Starz to a Hulu subscription at $2.99 a month for the first 12 months.
Considering a standalone Starz subscription retails for $10.99 a month, this is another good way to save on the cost over a full year.
Starz on Hulu
$2.99/mo for 12 months
While a good discount in general, we think this year’s Starz Black Friday deal is a much better option. Right now, new Starz subscribers can get an entire year for just $11.99.
Although new subscribers do have to pay the full $12 when signing up, this breaks down to just $1 a month for 12 months.
A Good Way To Combine Billing
While neither Hulu add-on deal is necessarily better than the deals being offered by HBO Max and Starz directly, for those that like to combine billing, the ability to add HBO Max or Starz at a discounted price could be worthwhile.
Combining billing not only makes it easier to manage multiple subscriptions, but usually also offers a more cohesive and included streaming experience in general.
