Hulu is jumping into the Black Friday wave with one of the most eye-catching streaming promotions of the season. For a limited time, new and eligible existing Hulu subscribers can add HBO Max Basic with Ads for just $2.99 a month. This represents a steep drop from the regular $9.99/month price.
The offer runs through December 1, and it includes access to HBO’s full lineup of prestige originals, blockbuster movies, and iconic series. It is open to new Hulu customers, returning subscribers, and users on the Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN Bundle. However, Disney+-only and Disney+ with Hulu Bundle customers aren’t eligible.
Access HBO and Max Content Directly Through Hulu
Once the HBO Max add-on is activated, subscribers get access to HBO originals and movie premieres directly inside the Hulu app. That includes the latest episodes of fan favorites, returning seasons, and exclusive HBO specials that usually debut ahead of their streaming competitors.
For viewers who also want the full Max experience, signing in through the separate HBO Max app unlocks even more. Shows like Friends, The Big Bang Theory, Doctor Who, and the full Warner Bros. movie library, including Wonder Woman and The Matrix, are available only on the Max platform. Hulu subscribers simply need to authenticate their HBO Max access by choosing Hulu as their provider and signing in with their Hulu credentials.
Works With Any Hulu Base Plan
Signing up for the HBO Max Basic add-on requires a Hulu base subscription. Hulu (With Ads) and Hulu (No Ads) plans unlock Hulu’s full library, including originals, exclusives, documentaries, hit movies, and kids’ programming. Users subscribed to Hulu + Live TV can pair the HBO Max add-on with 95+ live TV channels, including sports and news.
The HBO Max content streams on two screens at once under the standard Hulu plan. Hulu + Live TV subscribers can expand their streaming limits with the Unlimited Screens Add-on, which lets them stream on multiple devices. HBO live streams are also available through supported devices, giving subscribers access to live premieres as they air.
Easy to Add, Easy to Cancel
Hulu has made the setup process simple. You just sign in or create a Hulu account and select the HBO Max add-on during checkout. After downloading the HBO Max app and authenticating your account, you can access all available titles on your preferred device, from smart TVs and tablets to laptops and gaming consoles. Cancellation is also flexible, as you can remove the HBO Max add-on at any time, and both services will remain accessible until the end of the billing period.
With prestige HBO originals, a deep library of Max-exclusive content, and a full year of streaming for only $2.99 per month, Hulu’s Black Friday promotion is one of the most compelling streaming deals of 2024. It rolls premium HBO access into an already robust Hulu lineup, giving you more entertainment for a fraction of the usual cost.
