How to Gift a Disney+ Streaming Subscription to Someone
These days, streaming services are a dime a dozen. Disney+ offers some of the best value in relation to the exclusive content it has available, as you'll not only have access to dozens of Disney and Pixar films and TV shows, but the entirety of the collected Marvel Cinematic Universe and every Star Wars project pre- and post-acquisition. Depending on the subscription tier or bundle you pick, you can also experience Hulu and ESPN content as well, making this the best bang-for-your-buck streaming services around.
But did you know you can give a Disney+ subscription as a gift? Just in time for Father's Day, we've got the skinny on how to give a subscription out to your loved ones and how the process works.
How to Give Disney+ As a Gift
The best way to go about giving a Disney+ subscription as a gift is through a gift card. You can choose values anywhere between $25 and $200 to load onto the card, so figure out what your gift recipient likes and plan accordingly. One month of Disney+ is $10.99 for example, so the base $25 is good for two months.
Here's how it works:
- Determine the amount you want to load on the card, from $25 to $200.
- Visit disneyplus.com/giftcard to purchase. You can also get physical cards at any Disney-owned store or other major retailers like Target or Walmart.
- Get a nice card and write a heartfelt message!
- When your loved one is ready to redeem, they can do so by visitng the disneyplus.com/commerce/gift.
- Enter the gift card number, security code, and ZIP and they're ready to go. If they're a first-time subscriber, they'll have to create an account.
- Select the desired Disney+ or bundle plan.
Does a Disney+ Gift Card Work With Streaming Bundles?
There are a handful of different Disney+ bundles available, and luckily the gift cards work towards these as well. So if you're wanting to grab Hulu, ESPN, and HBO Max to bundle and save, you can do so to save a few bucks. Our explainer guide on how to get or switch to one of these bundles is a useful tool for how to decide what to pick.
How Much Should You Gift?
Like I mentioned previously, you can load the gift card with values ranging from $25 all the way up to $200. Some folks like to pay up front for their longterm subscriptions so they don't have to worry about it later, so a gift card of $100+ is a great route to take if you're planning on binging the entirety of the MCU or catch up on Andor.
