Fubo’s plans start at $14.99 and go up to $103.99 per month before add-ons — but many subscribers end up paying $90 or more once regional sports fees are factored in. This guide covers every plan, what each one actually costs, the channels that just came back after a seven-month dispute, and who Fubo is (and isn’t) right for.
Fubo and NBCUniversal ended their seven-month channel blackout on June 10, 2026 — bringing back local NBC affiliates, Telemundo, Bravo, MSNBC, Golf Channel, Syfy, USA Network, and NBC Sports regional networks for Bay Area, Boston, California, and Philadelphia markets. The deal was struck just before the FIFA World Cup, which Telemundo carries exclusively in Spanish. If you canceled Fubo over the NBC dispute, the channels are returning in phases over the coming weeks. English-language NBC channels are rolling out now; Telemundo and Universo were restored immediately on June 10.
Fubo (formerly FuboTV) launched as a soccer-focused platform in 2015 and has grown into one of the most sports-heavy live TV streamers in the country. In October 2025, Disney completed a merger making it the parent company with roughly a 70% stake — folding Fubo and Hulu + Live TV under the same corporate roof, though both services continue running separately. That makes Fubo effectively the sports-first arm of the Disney streaming empire, while Hulu + Live TV handles the entertainment side. For subscribers, the day-to-day experience hasn’t changed, but the backing has. Fubo’s core strength is regional sports networks — the local channels that carry your hometown NBA, NHL, and MLB teams — plus a Multiview feature letting you watch four live games at once. Its historic weakness has been price and missing entertainment channels like HGTV and Food Network. The NBC situation just resolved; the entertainment gaps are ongoing.
Straight answers to the questions that actually matter before you pull out a credit card or click cancel.

How much does Fubo actually cost per month — after all fees? Pro plan: $73.99/mo advertised · Add $12–$15 RSN fee in most markets = roughly $87–$89 total · Elite: $83.99 (RSN rolled in) · Deluxe: $103.99 · Sports + News: $55.99 · Latino: $14.99/moThe number on the sign-up page and what actually hits your bank account are often different. Fubo’s Pro plan is advertised at $73.99 per month, but the vast majority of subscribers who want regional sports channels — the main reason most people choose Fubo — pay an additional $12 to $15 per month Regional Sports Network fee on top of that. In practice, most sports-watching Pro subscribers pay $87 to $90 per month before taxes. The Elite plan at $83.99 bundles the RSN fee into the quoted price, so what you see is closer to what you pay. The first month typically comes in $20–$25 cheaper thanks to introductory discounts. When comparing Fubo to YouTube TV ($72.99/month) or Hulu + Live TV ($82.99/month), always add the RSN fee to get an apples-to-apples number — both competitors include regional sports without a separate fee in the markets they cover.

Is FuboTV free with Amazon Prime? No — not included with Amazon Prime at any level · You can subscribe to Fubo through Amazon’s app store at the same price as going direct · There is no Amazon discount or bundle arrangement · These are two completely separate companiesThis is probably the most common Fubo misconception. Amazon Prime gives you access to Prime Video’s on-demand library — it does not include any live TV service, including Fubo. You can find Fubo as a channel add-on inside Amazon Prime Video, which lets you watch it through the familiar Prime interface, but you pay the same monthly price as subscribing directly through fubo.tv. No bundling, no discount. If you’ve seen ads suggesting Fubo comes with Prime, those are Fubo’s own promotional ads shown to Prime users — not Amazon offering Fubo as part of your membership.

What is the RSN fee and why isn’t it in the advertised price? RSN = Regional Sports Network fee · Charged on top of the Pro plan in most U.S. markets · Ranges from $4 to $17/mo depending on your ZIP code · Covers local team sports channels (NBA, NHL, MLB) · Elite plan bundles it in; Pro plan does notA Regional Sports Network is the local cable channel that broadcasts your hometown professional sports team games — the kind of channel that carries Boston Celtics or Philadelphia Phillies games that you can’t watch on national cable. Fubo carries up to 40 of these RSN channels, which is more than any other live TV streaming service. But on the Pro plan, access to those channels comes with a separate monthly fee that isn’t included in the headline price. It shows up at checkout — not on the plan page — and ranges from $4 to $17 per month depending on where you live. Entering your ZIP code at fubo.tv before signing up will show you the exact RSN fee for your market. If you’re in the Elite plan, this fee is already baked in. For Pro subscribers in major sports markets, the RSN fee is almost always around $12–$15.

Did Fubo get NBC back — and what happened? Yes — NBC and all NBCUniversal channels returned to Fubo on June 10, 2026 · The dispute lasted seven months (Nov 2025 – June 2026) · Telemundo restored immediately; English NBC channels rolling out in phases · The deal was timed to coincide with the FIFA World Cup on TelemundoNBCUniversal pulled every channel it owned from Fubo on November 21, 2025, after the two companies couldn’t agree on a new carriage contract. At the heart of the fight: Fubo accused NBCU of unfair tactics, including allowing YouTube TV and Amazon Prime Video to integrate Peacock directly into their channel stores while refusing Fubo the same arrangement. The dispute also involved NBCU’s cable channels being spun off into a new company called Versant, and Fubo objecting to being forced into a long-term deal for those channels. After seven months of public back-and-forth, the two sides reached an agreement on June 10, 2026 — timed strategically just before the FIFA World Cup kicked off, since Telemundo holds exclusive U.S. Spanish-language rights to the tournament. Spanish-language channels were restored immediately; the English-language lineup including NBC, Bravo, MSNBC, and NBC Sports RSNs for Bay Area, Boston, California, and Philadelphia is rolling out in the weeks following.

What channels does Fubo NOT have that competitors do? Permanently missing: HGTV, Food Network, CNN, TNT, TBS, Discovery · These were lost when Warner Bros. Discovery exited · No amount of negotiation brings them back to Fubo currently · Competitors YouTube TV and DirecTV Stream carry all of themThe NBC situation gets the headlines, but there’s a quieter gap that affects everyday viewing for many households. After Warner Bros. merged with Discovery, Fubo lost HGTV, Food Network, CNN, TNT, TBS, and the Discovery Channel — and those channels have not returned. This matters in any household where not everyone is a sports fan. Someone who wants to watch HGTV renovation shows or CNN while a partner follows the game is going to find Fubo’s lineup one-sided. YouTube TV carries all of those Warner Bros. Discovery channels, plus the full NBC lineup. For sports-only households, this gap is irrelevant. For mixed households, it’s a genuine limitation worth knowing before you sign up.

How do I try Fubo for free and cancel without getting charged? 5-day free trial on all plans · Credit card required but not charged until trial ends · Cancel at fubo.tv/account — no phone call needed · Set a reminder on day 4 of your trial · Cancel through Apple/Roku/Amazon if you subscribed through those platforms insteadFubo offers a five-day free trial for first-time subscribers, and canceling is straightforward if you change your mind. Sign in at fubo.tv, click your profile icon, go to My Account, find the subscription section, and hit Cancel Subscription — the whole process takes under two minutes with no phone call required. Your access continues through the end of the trial period. Important: if you subscribed through Apple (iPhone, Apple TV, or iPad), you need to cancel through your iPhone’s Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions. If you signed up through a Roku or Amazon Fire Stick, the cancellation goes through that device’s account settings, not the Fubo website. After the free trial, Fubo often discounts the first paid month by $20–$25, so the real sticker shock typically doesn’t hit until month two.

Is Fubo worth it compared to YouTube TV? Fubo is better if: you specifically need regional sports networks for local team games + you want Multiview (watch 4 games at once) · YouTube TV is better if: you want the full NBC + HBO + Warner lineup, entertainment channels, or a simpler bill · For most general households, YouTube TV wins on valueThe clearest case for Fubo is a sports-first household that specifically needs regional sports networks to catch local professional team games on a local broadcast channel — and particularly one where someone will use the Multiview feature to follow multiple games simultaneously. No other live TV streamer matches Fubo’s RSN depth or that four-screen simultaneous viewing option. Outside of those two specific strengths, YouTube TV at $72.99/month (which is cheaper than Fubo Pro before the RSN fee) delivers a broader entertainment lineup: full NBC, HGTV, CNN, Food Network, TNT, TBS, plus unlimited DVR. For homes where one person watches sports and another watches home improvement or news, YouTube TV covers everyone. Fubo is a specialist service that rewards subscribers who use it for exactly what it’s built for.

What’s the cheapest Fubo plan worth considering? Fubo Sports + News at $55.99/mo is the leanest real option · Includes ESPN, FS1/FS2, NFL Network, Big Ten/ACC/SEC Network, plus local ABC, CBS, Fox in some markets · No RSN fee · No entertainment channels · Good for national sports watchers who don’t need local team RSNsFubo’s Sports + News plan launched as a deliberately lean package for viewers who want national sports and broadcast news without paying for channels they’ll never watch. For $55.99 a month you get the sports cable tier — ESPN, ESPN2, FS1, FS2, NFL Network, the major conference networks — plus local ABC, CBS, and Fox affiliates where available. It doesn’t include regional sports networks, so you won’t see your hometown NBA or NHL team games through this plan. It also doesn’t include Fubo’s entertainment channels. If you primarily follow college football, national NFL broadcasts, and cable sports, and you’re not attached to local team games, the Sports + News plan is a reasonable starting point before committing to the full Pro plan.
Standard ongoing rates after any first-month promotional discount. RSN fees apply separately on the Pro plan depending on your ZIP code. Enter your address at fubo.tv to see the exact RSN fee for your market before signing up.

The Pro plan lists $73.99/month on every ad and most comparison sites. What those comparisons often leave out: in virtually every U.S. market with live professional sports, Fubo also charges a Regional Sports Network fee of $4 to $17 per month on top of that. It shows up at checkout, not on the plan page. Before you sign up, go to fubo.tv, enter your ZIP code, and you’ll see the exact RSN fee for your area. In major sports markets like Boston, Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York, expect $12–$15 extra per month. The Elite plan solves this problem by rolling the RSN cost into the advertised price — you pay more upfront but get a clearer picture of your total bill.
The number on the Fubo plan page — $73.99 for Pro — is not what most subscribers in sports markets pay. The RSN fee of $4 to $17 per month is added at checkout and is mandatory if regional sports channels are available in your area. It’s not optional. Before signing up, enter your ZIP code at fubo.tv to see the RSN fee for your market, then add that to the plan price to know your real monthly cost. In most major cities, the real Pro plan cost sits around $87–$91 per month before taxes.
Fubo does not have HGTV, Food Network, CNN, TNT, TBS, or the Discovery Channel. These Warner Bros. Discovery channels are not on any Fubo plan and are not coming back in the foreseeable future. In households where someone watches those channels regularly, Fubo is a poor fit — YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, and DirecTV Stream all carry the full Warner lineup. If the sports fan and the HGTV watcher in your house need to share one service, Fubo is not it.
Fubo enforces household-only streaming. If someone at a different address uses your Fubo account at the same time you’re watching, your own stream gets cut off. This isn’t like some other streaming services where out-of-home sharing quietly works — Fubo actively limits simultaneous use to people at your registered home address. If you’re thinking about sharing an account with a family member who lives elsewhere, that arrangement doesn’t work on Fubo.
If you subscribed to Fubo through Apple (iPhone, iPad, Apple TV), Roku, or Amazon Fire Stick, you cannot cancel through fubo.tv — you must cancel through that device’s own subscription management settings. Trying to cancel on the website when your subscription runs through Apple will leave you still being charged. Check your confirmation email from when you signed up — it will say whether you subscribed through Fubo directly or through a third-party app store. That tells you exactly where to go to cancel.
Use the buttons below to find electronics stores with streaming devices, TV antenna shops for free local channels, internet speed upgrades, and tech setup help in your area.
- Step 1: Go to fubo.tv and enter your ZIP code before anything else. This shows you which channels are available in your market and — critically — what the RSN fee will be on top of the plan price. Most subscribers in major cities pay $12–$15 extra per month. Add that to the plan price to get your real monthly number.
- Step 2: Check that the channels you watch most are actually on Fubo. Remember that HGTV, Food Network, CNN, TNT, and TBS are not on any Fubo plan. If those matter to you or someone in your household, YouTube TV or Hulu + Live TV will serve you better. Confirm NBC and your specific NBC Sports RSN are live in your market following the June 2026 deal restoration.
- Step 3: Run a speed test at fast.com. Fubo recommends 25 Mbps minimum for HD streaming and 50 Mbps for 4K. If multiple people stream simultaneously, multiply that by the number of screens running at once. Slow internet means buffering and dropped connections during live sports — the one thing that makes streaming unbearable.
- Step 4: Start with the 5-day free trial and actually use it. Watch your team’s games, test Multiview, and check how the app runs on your specific TV or streaming device. Set a phone alarm for day 4 of your trial — the day before expiration — so you have time to cancel or commit without scrambling.
- Step 5: Know how to cancel before you subscribe. If you sign up through fubo.tv directly: cancel at fubo.tv → My Account → Cancel Subscription. If you sign up through Apple: cancel through iPhone Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions. Through Roku: cancel at roku.com → My Account. No phone calls are required on any platform. Your access continues through the end of your current billing period regardless of when you cancel.
