“Not published” means we did not find a renewal price stated by the vendor on the date we checked. It is not a claim that the price changes on renewal, and it is not a claim that it doesn’t.
The ad-free tier from Paramount+, at $13.99 a month, up a dollar on 15 January 2026. Twelve months of it is $167.88.
The asterisk is Paramount’s, not ours: the site sells this as watching “ad free*”, and the footnote covers live television and a handful of titles where the ads stay regardless. A price desk does not have an opinion about the content, but it does have one about a tier whose entire selling point carries a qualifier.
As with the entry tier, the discounted annual plan is not shown on the page we read, so it is not recorded. The figure above is the monthly list price and the honest ceiling on what a year costs.
