How do I get Peacock for free on Roku?

While Peacock discontinued its completely free tier, here’s what you can do to enjoy it without paying the full subscription price:

1. Peacock’s Free Tier

• What It Includes: Peacock offers a free level of service that gives you access to a selection of movies, TV shows, news, and sports. You will encounter ads while watching.
• Less Content: The full catalog – including many popular shows and movies – is only available with a paid subscription.

2. Potential Deals Through Xfinity or Cox

• Check Your Cable/Internet: If you have certain Xfinity or Cox cable or internet packages, you might already have access to Peacock Premium ($4.99/month value) at no extra cost.
• Contact Provider: Call your cable company or visit their website to see if you qualify.

3. Limited Time Offers

• Watch for Promotions: Occasionally, Peacock or Roku will run special promotions offering a free trial or deeply discounted pricing on Peacock Premium subscriptions.
• Where to Look: Check deal websites, your Roku device, and the Peacock website itself.
