How to bundle Disney Plus when you've already got Hulu and ESPN Plus – CNET

Disney Plus

Bundle your Disney Plus, Hulu and ESPN Plus accounts for the best deal.

If you signed up for a subscription to the Disney Plus streaming platform before bundling with Hulu and ESPN Plus was an option, you still have time to switch to this bundled offer. And if you already subscribe to Hulu or ESPN Plus, don’t worry because you can combine those streaming services with Disney Plus to get a discounted price to use all three together. 

The Disney Plus bundle costs $13 per month, which saves you $5 each month. You can buy the bundle by visiting Disney, ESPN Plus or Hulu. If you’ve already got a Hulu or ESPN account, you’ll need to combine your accounts on your desktop. Here’s what to do.

Can I still receive the bundle offer if I signed up for a Disney Plus promotion?

Yes, you can. Disney says if you signed up early through a preorder offer, such as the D23 Founders Circle three-year offer, you’ll be eligible for an upgrade. However, you’ll need to call customer support and change your current subscription to the month-to-month bundle option. Contact customer service at https://help.disneyplus.com.

What if I decide to switch to the ad-free Hulu subscription?

If you purchased the bundle through Disney Plus, you’re stuck with the ad-supported plan unless you cancel your bundle. If you want the ad-free version, you’ll need to subscribe directly through Hulu.

Make sure you’re subscribed to ad-free Hulu before bundling with Disney Plus.

Can I keep my ad-free Hulu subscription?

If you’re already subscribed to ad-free Hulu, you can still keep it when you bundle your accounts. However, you’ll have to pay the additional cost to Hulu because Disney will only credit $6 toward Hulu.

If you don’t have a Hulu account yet but would prefer the ad-free service, you’ll need to sign up for Hulu before you sign up for the bundle. If you sign up for the bundle and then decide you want the ad-free experience, you’ll have to cancel your subscription. This also applies to the Hulu Plus Live TV plan.
