By Lore Apostol / May 31, 2022

Looking for an ESPN Plus free trial? It's a great idea to try and take advantage of the free trials the streaming platforms offer nowadays, especially since there are so many of these competing services on the market. Who wouldn't want to see how the platform works, what's in the library, and if it really is what you're looking for and if it suits you or not? This is one of the most popular platforms on the market right now when it comes to streaming services focusing on sports, offering plenty of content, including some things you won't find elsewhere - and all of these for a good price.

If you're interested in becoming a customer and in details regarding the ESPN Plus free trial, we have all the information you may need. However, keep in mind that this streaming platform is geo-restricted, so you won't be able to access it while traveling away from the United States. This being said, let's all there's to know about ESPN Plus having a free trial.

Is There an ESPN Plus Free Trial?

Unfortunately, ESPN Plus no longer offers a free trial. The platform had this feature until 2020, when The Walt Disney Company retracted free trials on the streaming services it owns - ESPN Plus and Disney Plus. Even though right now ESPN Plus is among the few streaming platforms that do not offer a free trial upon subscribing to ESPN+ on its website, you have the freedom to cancel online at any time if you decide this service isn't what you are looking for.

However, you can get ESPN Plus for no cost, so keep on reading to find out how to enjoy the service free of charge.

What Is the Cheapest Way to Get ESPN Plus?

Sports fans can sign up to ESPN Plus for just $6.99 a month (or $69.99 per year). You can do that on the ESPN website, the ESPN Plus website, or on the ESPN App (mobile and connected devices).

You can also get ESPN Plus for a smaller price if you acquire it as part of The Disney Bundle. This bundle includes Disney Plus, ESPN Plus, and one of Hulu's base plans for a discounted price - this deal lets you save 25% if you subscribe to this bundle compared to the monthly cost of subscribing to these three services separately. The Disney Bundle option with ad-supported Hulu costs $13.99 per month and with Hulu (No Ads) costs $19.99 per month.

How to Sign Up for ESPN Plus

As we mentioned above, you can subscribe to the platform through the ESPN website, the ESPN Plus website, or on the ESPN App on mobile and connected devices. Below, we'll take you through the step-by-step process of signing up for ESPN Plus on the service's website.

1. Go to the ESPN Plus website.

2. Click the Subscribe to ESPN+ Only button.

3. Enter your name, email address, and a new password, then click Sign Up (or just log in if you used your email address to create an account on Disney, ESPN, Marvel, or ABC).

4. Finally, select the monthly or annual plan, select the payment method, fill in your payment details, check the Privacy Policy box, and click Buy ESPN+.
5. Follow any other instructions you may get and you're ready to start watching!

Can I Get ESPN Plus for Free?

Yes, we are happy to say that you can get ESPN Plus for free, and it's quite easy to do so.

Subscribers to the Hulu + Live TV platform also receive ESPN Plus and Disney Plus at no additional cost, so all you have to do is to subscribe to the Hulu + Live TV service. The subscription price is $69.99 per month if you select the Hulu On-Demand service with ads and $75.99 per month if you select the ad-free Hulu On-Demand library. You also get Unlimited DVR and over 75 live TV channels.

Another option to get your hands on ESPN Plus for free is through Verizon's Disney Bundle offer. If you're a Verizon customer with at least one Get More Unlimited or Play More Unlimited plan, you can also opt into The Disney Bundle for free (which includes ESPN Plus, Disney Plus, and Hulu On-Demand). If you're not eligible, you can also add The Disney Bundle to your account as a paid subscription for $13.99 per month.

Can I Get ESPN Plus Free for One Month?

As we mentioned above, there is no free trial with ESPN Plus right now, and no other service offers a deal that would let you get ESPN Plus for one month.

Will the ESPN Plus Free Trial Come Back?

The previous 7-day free trial on ESPN Plus is most probably never coming back. This platform follows the same path as other streaming services that started with a free trial, then pulled it, never to be seen again. If we were to consider the others (Netflix, Disney Plus, Paramount Plus), chances are extremely low or inexistent to see the ESPN Plus free trial available again.
