Disney+ is raising prices again – but only in the US

Disney+ has brought in another price rise, this time for US subscribers only. The popular app will rise alongside its sister service, Hulu, in what Variety reports is the fourth such rise in as many years. Disney+ Premium and Hulu Premium ad-free plans are both increasing, going from $18.99 (£14.36) to $21.49 (£16.25) per month, a 13 per cent rise. A “bundle” package of the two is comparatively cheaper, rising from $19.99 (£15.11) to $21.99 (£16.29) per month. Ad-supported plans are also rising, with Disney+ and Hulu’s ad tiers rising from $11.99 (£9.07) to $12.49 (£9.44) per month, although the bundled version of the services has stayed at $12.99 (£9.82) per month. The new prices were in place as of Wednesday (September 23) for new subscribers, which existing subscribers will see the rise in their next monthly bill.
