The Apple TV and Peacock bundle now costs $17.99 a month with Peacock Premium, up from $14.99, and $22.99 a month with Peacock Premium Plus, up from $19.99. New and returning subscribers have paid the higher prices since September 1, 2026. If you had the bundle before then, Peacock says the new price starts on your first billing date on or after October 1, 2026, so many existing customers are seeing it on their October or November bill.

The bundle launched in October 2025 and pairs Apple TV's ad-free originals with Peacock's NBC and Bravo shows, movies and live sports. Peacock still advertises it as saving more than 30% compared with buying the two services separately.

When existing subscribers pay the new price

Your renewal date matters more than October 1 itself. A subscriber who renews on October 12 moves to the new price on October 12, and one who renewed in late September keeps the old price until the next bill. You can confirm your plan and next billing date in the Subscriptions tab of your Peacock account. If you signed up through Apple, the subscription is managed in your Apple account instead.

Annual Peacock subscribers who switch to the bundle don't start it until their current annual plan ends.

What the bundle includes

The Premium Plus tier adds Peacock downloads and removes most ads, though live sports, channels and a few shows still carry ads. Both tiers include the full Apple TV service with no ads, including Apple originals, Formula 1 and MLS. Peacock separately raised its own plans this year, and its Peacock Select tier went to $8.99 a month in August.

Is the bundle still worth it?

If you watch both services, the bundle is still the cheaper way to get them. If one app rarely gets opened, the $3 increase is a good reason to look at whether you need both. Our Peacock price increase guide covers Peacock's standalone plans.
