Verizon’s latest streaming deal is a $10 monthly YouTube Premium subscription

Verizon is doubling down on its efforts to sell you streaming services. Starting May 30, the company will offer a discounted $10 YouTube Premium subscription through its myPlan benefits.

YouTube Premium typically costs $13.99, allowing you to watch videos on the platform ad-free, download content, and access YouTube Music Premium. You can get this benefit if you have one of Verizon’s myPlan subscriptions, which gives subscribers access to services like Disney Plus and Apple One.

In addition to YouTube Premium, Verizon is adding Peacock to its digital content hub on June 5. Verizon Plus Play lets you buy and manage your subscriptions to Netflix, Max, Paramount Plus, AMC Plus and more from one place. Like most other services available on Plus Play, Peacock will cost $5.99 per month for Premium or $11.99 for Premium Plus. Both of these plans will get a $2 price increase in July.

Verizon also announced a new Unlimited Phone Upgrade option that will allow Unlimited Ultimate customers to get the “best” trade-in deals, regardless of the condition of their phone. An Unlimited Ultimate plan costs from $100 per month for one line with no discount to $55 per line each month if you have four lines and an automatic payment discount.

The operator is pursuing its goal of becoming a streaming middleman, a setup that allows the company to get a cut of any subscriptions it sells. So far, Verizon already offers an exclusive plan with Netflix and Max, as well as a $25.99 per month deal with Netflix Premium and Starz. Other bundles are also popping up elsewhere, including one with Disney Plus, Hulu and Max, as well as a Netflix, Peacock and Apple TV Plus bundle offered through Comcast.
