Many Streaming Services on Sale for as Little as $0.99/Month for Prime Day — Paramount+, AMC+, Starz, MGM+, Apple TV+, and More

The number that stopped me mid-scroll: $0.99 a month. Not for one streaming service — for several of them, all accessible through the same Firestick remote.

Amazon’s Prime Day 2026 sale runs July 8–11, and this year the streaming deals are the headline. Paramount+, AMC+, Starz, MGM+, Acorn TV, ALLBLK — most of them dropping to $0.99/month for the first two months when you subscribe via Prime Video Channels on Fire TV. I’ve run all the major players on my Firestick 4K Max at various points. At standard prices, I’d realistically keep two or three simultaneously. At $0.99, the math stops being math and starts being obvious.

The catch — and there always is one — is that every single deal auto-renews at full price the moment the promo window closes. Paramount+ jumps to $12.99/month. Starz to $10.99. Amazon is counting on you to forget.

So here’s every deal, ranked by actual value, with the one move you need to make immediately after subscribing.

Every Deal at a Glance

A handful of these deals are already live in June — you don’t have to wait until July 8 to lock in the promo price.

Top Picks, Ranked by Value

1. AMC+ — Best Overall Deal

AMC+ at $0.99/month is the deal I’d grab without thinking twice — and here’s why it’s not even close. You’re not just subscribing to AMC’s prestige drama library. The subscription bundles Shudder (the best horror streaming service, normally $7.99/month on its own), Sundance Now (indie and international cinema), and IFC Films content under a single subscription. Effectively three platforms for less than a dollar a month for two months.

I’ve spent real time with AMC+ — worked through The Terror, a backlog of Shudder exclusives, and a handful of Sundance Now international films over the course of a few weeks. The Fire TV app is functional, if not flashy. On my Firestick 4K Max it loads without complaint. Fair warning: on older Firestick hardware (2020–2022 models), AMC+ and MGM+ standalone apps can be sluggish. If you’re on older hardware, use the Prime Video Channels interface rather than downloading the standalone app — it handles playback noticeably better.

2. Starz — Best Long-Term Value After the Promo

SSTARZPaid

Starz has the cheapest annual plan on this entire list — $35/year — which works out to under $3/month if you switch to annual after the promo. That’s the actual play here: subscribe at $0.99/month for two months, enjoy it, then if you like it, switch to the annual plan rather than paying $10.99/month.

The library leans heavily toward movies and original series — Outlander, Power, the BMF franchise. It’s not the widest catalog, but for movie lovers who don’t want to pay Netflix prices, Starz punches above its weight at the annual rate.

3. Paramount+ Premium — Best for Showtime Fans

Paramount+

The Premium tier of Paramount+ is the specific version dropping to $0.99/month — and Premium includes Showtime content on top of the base Paramount+ library. That distinction matters. You’re getting CBS, MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, live CBS news, live sports coverage, and Showtime originals under one subscription.

The Fire TV app for Paramount+ is one of the better-built apps on this list. D-pad navigation is smooth, content discovery is well-organized, and it integrates cleanly with the Prime Video Channels interface. At $12.99/month after the promo it’s the priciest standard rate here — the two-month window is ideal for clearing your Showtime watchlist and reassessing.

---

4. MGM+ — Best for Classic Film Libraries

MGM+ drops to $0.99/month for two months and carries the full MGM film vault — Bond films, classic Hollywood titles, and a growing slate of MGM originals. The standard rate of $6.99/month is actually the cheapest among all the services on this list, which makes it one of the easier keeps after the promo. Amazon has also introduced a MGM+/Starz bundle at $11.99/month — 30% off subscribing to both separately — if you want both post-promo.

One known issue: some Firestick 4th Gen (2023) users have reported a black screen error in the MGM+ app. The fix is straightforward — go to Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications > MGM+ > Update and let it pull the latest version.

---

5. Apple TV+ — Discounted, But Not to $0.99

Apple TV+

Apple TV+ is the outlier on this list — it drops to $4.99/month for two months, not $0.99. That’s a 50% discount off the standard $9.99/month rate, but it sits in a different tier from everything else here. Worth calling out clearly before you assume it’s part of the $0.99 club.

The library is the tightest and most curated of the group — no licensing filler, only Apple originals. Severance, Slow Horses, The Morning Show, Presumed Innocent — if you’ve been meaning to work through any of these, $4.99 for two months is a reasonable window. One real friction point users have flagged: Apple TV+ content doesn’t show up in the Prime Video “Up Next” queue as cleanly as Paramount+ or Starz. You’ll need to open the Apple TV+ app directly to pick up where you left off.

How to Subscribe via Prime Video on Your Firestick

The cleanest path to these deals is through Prime Video Channels — billing runs through Amazon, cancellation is easy, and content plays through the Prime Video player, which handles older Firestick hardware better than most standalone apps.

The Rest of the Sale — 27+ Additional Deals

The headliners get the attention, but Amazon’s Prime Day sale reportedly includes 27+ additional subscription deals with discounts up to 93%. A few others worth considering:

• Acorn TV — $0.99/month for two months (standard: $8.99/month). Best British TV streaming service available on Firestick outside of BBC iPlayer. Deep catalog of mysteries, dramas, and comedies from the UK, Ireland, and Australia.
• ALLBLK — $0.99/month for two months (standard: $6.99/month). Focused on Black cinema, television, and originals. Smaller library, but well-curated.
• BET+ — $2.99/month for three months (standard rate resumes after). Sometimes bundled with MGM+ promotional offers via Prime Video Channels.

At $0.99 the downside risk on any of these is essentially nothing. If you’ve had Acorn TV on your mental “I should try that” list for a year — now’s the window.

How Do These Stack Up Against the Big Names?

Peacock Netflix Hulu

None of the major holdouts — Peacock, Netflix, Hulu, or Max — are part of this sale. For context:

• Peacock ($5.99/month with ads) — Includes NBC content, live sports, and a free tier. Noticeably cheaper than Paramount+ at standard rates and a direct competitor.
• Netflix ($15.49/month Standard) — Largest originals library, no live TV, not participating in Prime Day deals.
• Max ($15.99/month with ads) — Premium HBO originals plus Warner Bros. movies. Best direct competitor to AMC+ for prestige drama.
• Disney+ Bundle (~$20/month with ads) — Bundles Disney+, Hulu, and Max. Best value if you want all three, but no Prime Day discount.

The practical comparison: Paramount+ Premium undercuts subscribing to Showtime separately. AMC+ with Shudder bundled is better value than standalone Shudder ($7.99/month). Starz’s $35/year annual rate beats anything Max or Netflix offers on a per-month basis.

Known Issues to Watch For

A few real headaches flagged by Fire TV users in forums:

Auto-Renewal Surprise — By far the most common complaint. Users forget to cancel, get billed $12.99 for Paramount+ or $10.99 for Starz in month three, and miss the cancellation window. Cancel auto-renew immediately after subscribing — not eventually, immediately.

Older Firestick Performance — AMC+ and MGM+ standalone apps run sluggishly on 2020–2022 Firestick hardware. Subscribe and watch via Prime Video Channels instead of the standalone apps.

MGM+ Black Screen on Firestick 4th Gen (2023) — If MGM+ shows a black screen, go to Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications > MGM+ > Update.

Apple TV+ Queue Integration — Apple TV+ content doesn’t appear in Prime Video’s “Up Next” row. You’ll need to open the Apple TV+ app directly to continue watching.

Trial Eligibility — The $0.99/month deal targets new subscribers or those who haven’t used a recent trial. If you’ve subscribed in the past 6–12 months, you may not qualify. Amazon’s subscription page will tell you your eligibility before you commit.

The Verdict

At $0.99 for two months, this is genuinely worth your attention. The total exposure on three services — AMC+, Starz, and Paramount+ Premium — is $5.94. The only version of this deal that goes wrong is forgetting to cancel.

If you’re keeping any of these long-term: Starz at $35/year and AMC+ at $55/year are the two annual plans that hold up after the promo. Paramount+ Premium at ~$95/year only makes sense if you’re already paying for Showtime separately.
