How to get Peacock (cheap) with a discounted Walmart+ subscription
Walmart is running a promo that cuts Walmart+ to about $49 for the first year. One useful perk: Walmart+ subscribers can choose a streaming benefit that includes either Peacock Premium or Paramount+ Essential. That means you can effectively get Peacock for far less than its usual annual price by buying the discounted Walmart+ plan.
Peacock Premium normally costs roughly $110/year on its own, so getting it via this Walmart+ offer can save you a sizable amount. Walmart+ also includes other perks — free shipping on many orders, fuel discounts, early access to sales and even perks like free online vet care and, in some areas, drone delivery.
How the hack works
- Buy the discounted Walmart+ membership (first year ~ $49).
- Redeem the streaming benefit inside your Walmart+ account and pick Peacock Premium or Paramount+ Essential.
- Enjoy Peacock content (movies, originals and sports) via the included benefit for the duration specified by Walmart+ terms.
What to check before you buy
- Eligibility & region: Confirm the Walmart+ promo is available in your country and that the streaming benefit applies to your account.
- Benefit details: Verify whether the streaming benefit grants a full year of Peacock Premium or a limited window — terms can change by promotion.
- Auto‑renewal: Walmart+ typically auto‑renews at the regular price after the promotional period — set a calendar reminder if you don’t want to continue at full cost.
- Compare alternatives: Check other holiday promos (HBO Max, Apple TV+, Disney+ + Hulu bundle) to make sure this provides the best value for the content you want.
Is it worth it?
If you want Peacock Originals, a collection of movies, and live sports available on Peacock — and you can also use the other Walmart+ perks — this deal can be a smart buy. It’s especially attractive if you were already planning to shop at Walmart or benefit from Walmart+ features beyond streaming.
