Fubo TV, the self-described “sports-first live streaming platform,” offers live sports viewing as well as local and premium channels.
But how much does it cost? It depends which plan you choose.
FuboTV plans range from $14.99 per month to $94.99 per month.
The three FuboTV plans are: Pro, Elite and Latino. Most plans, except for the Latino plan, offer access to more than 200 channels.
Two important notes:
Fubo Pro starts at $84.99 per month. You get access to watch Fubo on up to 10 screens on your home network as well as family share, which enables three additional devices outside the home. You also have unlimited cloud DVR space. It also includes regional NBA, NHL and MLB games.
The Elite plan, which starts at $94.99 per month, offers everything in the Pro plan plus 4K streaming, additional channels and regional games.
Fubo’s Latino plan offers Spanish-language TV at $14.99 per month. Enter your ZIP code to check the number of channels you’ll receive. You also get unlimited cloud DVR space and can watch Fubo on up to two screens.
To customize the viewing experience, Fubo lets you add features and channel add-ons such as Sports Plus with NFL RedZone, STARZ or MLB.TV for an added cost.
Does FuboTV fit into your budget?
With a multitude of options available to consumers, it can be challenging to sift through all the choices and find the best streaming service for you and your budget. For sports lovers especially, it can be difficult to find a platform that offers regional sports. Think about the “wants” category of your budget. Use the 50/30/20 budget framework, where 50% of your income applies to needs, 30% to wants, and 20% to savings and debt repayment, Fubo would fall within the 30% category. To free up room in your budget for a streaming service such as Fubo, you can explore new ways to save money by lowering costs in other areas. Fubo also offers a free trial for each plan option, allowing subscribers to try before they buy. You will need to provide a credit or debit card to initiate the trial, and at the end of your free period Fubo will automatically switch you over to a paid subscription unless you cancel.
When signing up, look on the checkout screen for the date and time your free trial will end, or check in the MyAccount section once you’re on the site.
Another angle worth investigating is rewards categories if you use a credit card. Some cards offer perks for streaming services, with as much as 8% cash back.
