YouTube’s ad-free Premium subscription is getting another perk: access to Peacock. In an announcement on Monday, NBCUniversal says the multi-year agreement will allow Premium subscribers to stream Peacock’s ad-supported shows, movies, and live sports directly through the YouTube app in 2027.
YouTube will bundle Peacock in its standard subscription, which increased to $15.99 / month in April, YouTube spokesperson Jessica Gibby confirmed to noti.group. That makes it cheaper than subscribing to both services individually, as Peacock currently starts at $10.99 / month for its ad-supported plan.
As part of the deal, NBCUniversal will stream “a selection of live sporting events” on YouTube, and it’s also extending its distribution agreement with YouTube TV.
