Fubo publishes comprehensive guide to US sports streaming plans and add-ons
New documentation outlines pricing for tiers ranging from the sports-focused 'Sports + News' to the premium 'Deluxe' package, alongside costs for standalone combat sports and international coverage.
Fubo has released a detailed guide outlining its subscription architecture, channel lineups, and optional add-on packages for the United States market. The service positions itself as a contract-free alternative to traditional cable, offering access to major broadcast networks including ABC, CBS, FOX, and ESPN. According to the documentation, channel availability remains heavily dependent on the subscriber's location, with local broadcast and regional sports network access varying by ZIP code.
The guide breaks down the service's tiered pricing structure, which ranges from the budget-oriented 'Sports + News' plan to the premium 'Deluxe' tier. The 'Sports + News' option is described as a slimmer package for markets where it is available, focusing on live games and key news channels without the broader entertainment lineup. Moving up the ladder, the 'Pro' plan serves as a standard base offering a larger channel lineup, while the 'Elite' tier introduces 4K access for supported programming. The 'Deluxe' tier is highlighted as the most comprehensive option, notably including NFL RedZone and other premium extras.
To accommodate specific viewing preferences, the provider details several standalone and add-on options that can be purchased through the Fubo Channel Store. Combat sports fans can subscribe to DAZN for $29.99 per month, which covers boxing, crossover boxing, and mixed martial arts. For international soccer enthusiasts, the International Sports Plus add-on is listed at $6.99 per month, providing access to channels such as FOX Soccer Plus and various Latin American networks.
Baseball coverage requires a separate investment, with the MLB.TV add-on costing $29.99 monthly to access out-of-market games. The guide notes that this package includes more than 2,000 live games during the season, though local blackout rules and league restrictions may still apply. Cricket fans are also catered to through specific add-ons, with coverage available via Willow Sports, Willow TV, and Willow Xtra, depending on the base plan selected.
Key technical features included across eligible plans are unlimited Cloud DVR storage and the ability to stream on up to 10 devices simultaneously. The documentation clarifies that standard U.S. English plans containing ESPN also provide access to ESPN Unlimited at no additional cost. While the service advertises a free trial for new subscribers, the guide warns that the specific duration, eligibility, taxes, and fees can vary by region and plan.
Ultimately, the release serves to clarify the complexities of the current streaming landscape for sports enthusiasts. Fubo emphasises that the best plan depends on individual viewing habits, with recommendations suggesting the 'Sports + News' tier for lower-cost needs and the 'Deluxe' or 'Elite' tiers for households requiring deeper channel lineups and premium content.
