STARZ Is Raising Its Price, Here’s How to Save on Six Months of Streaming
Existing STARZ customers will see their subscription price with their first bill on or after Sept. 5.
STARZ is now the latest streaming service to announce it’s raising prices for new and existing customers. In fact, the price increase for new STARZ subscribers is already in effect; as of Friday, Aug. 30, STARZ costs $10.99 per month for new subscribers, a $1 increase from the $9.99 per month it previously charged. The increase comes ahead of some popular fall premieres for the streamer, and the timing is likely not coincidental.
Key Details:
- STARZ previously informed existing customers that their subscription price for STARZ would rise on or after Sept. 5.
- The streamer will welcome the final episodes of “Power Book II: Ghost” as well as new episodes of “Outlander” in coming months.
- New STARZ customers can get their first month of service for just $5.99 now.
STARZ has made the price hike to $10.99 per month official for new customers as of Aug. 30, but existing subscribers have a few more days before their rate goes up. In early August, STARZ sent emails to current subscribers telling them that their bill will increase from $9.99 per month to $10.99 with their first billing cycle on or after Sept. 5.
STARZ is just the latest streaming service to announce or enact a price increase. Disney is the most publicized price hiker of them all, having announced this summer that it would raise subscription rates on almost all of its bundles and individual plans in October. Paramount+ and Peacock have also increased prices this summer.

STARZ offers quality original series, just as it did when it was only a cable channel. The streamer is the exclusive on-demand home of “Power Book II: Ghost,” which will debut the second half of its fourth and final season on Sept. 6. The other titles in the “Power” franchise also call STARZ home.
STARZ also has the second half of Season 7 of “Outlander” coming in November 2024. The final episode of Season 2 of “The Serpent Queen” is coming to the streamer as well, and as always it hosts a rotating library of older films like “The Big Lebowski,” “Fargo” and others. All of this content streams on STARZ completely ad-free on its one streaming tier.
