Fubo: channels, price, plans, packages, and add-ons

If you’re a sports fan, Fubo (nee FuboTV) may be the answer to your cord-cutting dreams. What is Fubo? It’s a live streaming service that focuses mainly on sports-focused live TV and can help you quit cable for good. And it’s very much growing in popularity, currently sitting in fourth place in the U.S. with about 1.477 million subscribers as of late 2023.

Fubo’s pricing and plans — and even the channels available — are competitive with services that are many times its size. And that’s what’s great about the whole streaming space: You have options. That’s also the hard part. It can be tough to tell the difference between Fubo and Hulu With Live TV. Or Fubo versus YouTube TV. What makes one stand out above the others?

We’ll look at the Fubo channels, pricing, and everything else that makes it what it is, including what makes it a viable option in 2024.

Fubo price and plans

There are four Fubo plans — Fubo Pro, Fubo Elite, Fubo Ultimate, and Fubo Latino — that range in price from $75 per month to $100 per month.

Here’s how the total Fubo cost shakes out:

Fubo Pro is the new base plan and gets you 183 channels for $80 a month. With that, you’ll have 1,000 hours of cloud-based DVR (the ability to “record” shows to play back later) and the ability to watch on up to 10 screens at home and two away from your home network. This is what Fubo calls “unlimited” despite it having a pretty clear limit.

Fubo Elite ramps things up to $90 a month and has 247 channels (with 130-plus events in 4K), another 54 from the Fubo Extra plan, and another 11 from News Plus. DVR remains the same at 1,000 hours, and you still have the same 10 “unlimited” screens at home and two on the road.

Fubo Premier is $100 a month and offers 256 channels in all (with the usual events in 4K), plus the same extra channels as Elite — 54 Fubo Extra and 11 News Plus channels. It also includes Showtime, has 1,000 hours of cloud-based DVR, and 10 unlimited screens, plus two away from home.

Fubo Latino is $33 a month (you may see an initial sales price) and offers 65 channels of Latino-themed content and a cloud DVR of 250 hours. You can only watch two screens at once on this plan.

All of these plans come with a free seven-day trial. You can pay monthly or quarterly — but there’s no discount if you fork over the cash for three months at a time.

Fubo channels

Fubo has a competitive slate of channels. That starts with your local broadcast affiliates, though you’ll want to check the Fubo website because those can vary slightly depending on where you live.

Other Fubo add-ons

The channels above are just the base plans. There are a number of other options as well.

You’ll find a few premium movie options, which include multiple channels. Those include:

  • Showtime for $11 a month
  • Starz for $9 a month
  • Epix for $6 a month
  • Pantaya for $6 a month

Or you can get Showtime, Starz and Epix bundled together for $20 a month, saving you $6 a month.

There are a number of additional sports and news packages, too. Some of it is in addition to what you’d get with Fubo Pro or Fubo Elite, but there also is some overlap. Here’s how it all breaks down:

  • Sports Plus with NFL RedZone ($11 a month): This gets you NFL RedZone, which flips through the games as teams are about to score.

Fubo and 4K

Fubo, at one point, was the only live TV streaming service in the U.S. to offer up anything in 4K. (Yes, upscaled 4K, not native.) That was and remains limited to live sports, and it’s still better than nothing. But events remain fairly few and far between, with maybe a game or race a day. (Here’s the full Fubo 4K schedule.)

And Fubo isn’t the only 4K game in town anymore — YouTube TV also offers up pretty much the same events from the likes of NBC Sports and Fox. One major change from 2022, however, is that Fubo no longer throws in 4K content for free anymore on the Pro plan. Like with YouTube TV, you’ll have to pay up if you want any sort of show in 4K resolution. That means you’ll have to eschew the $70-a-month Pro plan and skip straight to the $80-a-month Elite package. That’s still $5 cheaper than the $85 a month you’ll have to pay for 4K content on YouTube TV ($65 for the base plan and $20 for the 4K Plus package), so there’s that.

And the usual caveats still apply. You’ll need to have a TV with a 4K panel, and any other device you’re using to actually stream Fubo TV will need to support 4K resolution.

Fubo devices

The short version is this: If you have a relatively new device — be it a streaming stick, connected TV, or even a web browser — you should be able to get to Fubo. The app is available on every major streaming platform.

Here’s the more detailed breakdown:

  • Amazon Fire TV: This goes for all Fire TV devices, as well as the awkwardly named Fire TV Edition TVs (basically, that’s a TV with Fire TV OS as the operating system.)
  • Android TV/Google TV: This means devices like Nvidia Shield and Chromecast with Google TV, as well as other devices that are running full builds of Android TV. The same goes for televisions with Android TV as the operating system.
  • Apple TV: From the fourth-generation box and newer.
  • Android phones/tablets: So long as you have Android 5.0 or higher — and you almost certainly do.
  • Roku: It’s the biggest streaming device in the U.S. and fully supported for Model 3700X and up.
  • Xbox: If you have Xbox One, One S, or One X, you’re good to go.
  • Smart TVs: You can watch Fubo on Vizio from 2016, Samsung from 2015, LG from 2018, and Hisense from 2020.
  • iOS/iPad OS: From iOS 13 and up and iPad OS 13.1 and up.
  • Web browsers: You’re good on Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox, and Safari.

But do cord cutters really need extensive channel offerings? Philo, a live TV streaming service that's a competitor to Sling TV and other live TV streamers, believes the answer is no.
