Peacock may not be as popular as other streaming services, but it is the way to go if you want to watch live sports events, or revisit your favorite NBC shows like “The Office”. So if you want to get Peacock, without making a dent in your bank statement then keep reading as in this guide, we will discuss ways to help you get a subscription to Peacock for free.
Does Peacock Have a Free Trial?
When the streaming service came out back in July 2020, it used to offer a 7-day free trial period. You could use it to try and test out the service before making up your mind about purchasing the subscription. But the streaming platform does not offer free trials anymore.
1. Get Peacock for Free with Instacart

Instacart+ is a grocery delivery and pick-up service. Its Express membership costs $10 per month or $99 a year, which gets you free delivery on orders above $35 plus other benefits. It also includes the Peacock Premium tier subscription for free.
This is the ad-based tier of the streaming platform, but still, you are getting it as a free bonus. So if you are already an Instacart+ Express member, then head to their website and claim this free benefit. Note that if you are an existing Peacock Premium subscriber, you will need to cancel your plan to claim Instacart’s offer.
2. Free Peacock Premium with Xfinity
Those of you who have Xfinity Internet, subscribed to Comcast’s new streaming service NOW TV, Xfinity Diamond, or Platinum plan owners can also claim free Peacock Premium for themselves. Here is a chart to show the different plans and how long they offer the Peacock subscription.
Xfinity Plans | Offer |
---|---|
Xfinity Internet customers (Gigabit or higher) | Peacock Premium for two years for free. |
Xfinity Rewards member (Diamond or Platinum tier) | Redeem free Peacock Premium as long as you stay a member. |
NOW TV customers | Included with the service. |
New Xfinity Internet customers with an X1 TV Box, Flex streaming TV Box, or a Xumo Stream Box from Xfinity | Free Peacock Premium for 6 months. |
If you qualify for any of the above, then head over to xfinity.com/activate-peacock and log in with your Xfinity ID to check your eligibility and claim the free subscription. For Diamond and Platinum members, you need to go to xfinity.com/rewards and sign in to get Peacock TV at no additional cost.
3. Peacock Premium with Xumo TV

Xumo TV or Xumo Stream box members will be glad to know that you can also get Peacock Premium, literally for free. The company has partnered with Peacock to bring some of their shows to NBC’s streaming service, so as part of the deal, Xumo users are eligible for six months of Peacocks’ ad-supported premium tier.
This is a good way to watch your favorite shows on Peacock as a Xumo TV owner. You can claim this free 6-month subscription from the Peacock app.
4. Grab Halloween Horror Nights Tickets for Free Subscription
![Halloween Horror Nights Peacock](https://beebom.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Halloween-Horror-Nights-Peacock-.jpg?w=1024)
If you choose to get yourself a Halloween Horror Nights Ticket at Universal Studios Hollywood, or Universal Orlando Resort, then you’ll be eligible for a 6-month package of Peacock Premium for free.
The tickets start at $82.99 per person, so if you purchase one, then you will receive the code to redeem the service in an email. Using it, you can apply for the subscription, but it won’t work for existing Peacock members. The tickets are available for a limited window, from June 6th to November 2nd so hurry up.
5. Buy Comcast Stream Saver Bundle

Bundles are the best way to save money on streaming services nowadays. So if you want to get yourself Peacock Premium for dirt cheap, then Comcast’s Stream Saver Bundle is the best way to do so. It includes Netflix, Apple TV Plus, and Peacock, all three for a price of just $15 exclusively for Comcast customers.
Do note that you are getting the ad-supported version of each service, but it is still a huge savings compared to getting each plan individually. It’s technically not a free option, but still gets you the service for a very low cost.
6. Get Peacock Premium Student Plan

Another way to enjoy the rich content of Peacock is by getting the student discount, which brings the price of the Premium plan down to $1.99 per month with a 12-month validity. You can check whether you are eligible for a student discount by verifying your details through SheerID, and then enjoy the benefits if you love the service.
These are the best ways that you can use to claim the Peacock subscription for free or at an extremely discounted price. Sadly, there is no way to try out the platform for a brief period, but if you use any of the services discussed above, then you can enjoy more than just a 7-day trial period. If you have any doubts or queries about this list, let us know in the comments below.
Xfinity customers, who have a gigabit or higher connection, can get a year free subscription to Peacock for free. Xfinity rewards members in Platinum or Diamond tier can also claim Peacock premium for as long as they have the plan. If you have subscribed to Comcast’s new streaming service Now TV, then that also includes Peacock’s ad-supported plan.
Netflix itself doesn’t offer Peacock for free. But existing Comcast members can get the Stream Saver bundle, which gives them Peacock free with Netflix and Apple TV+ but all three will include ads. The bundle will set you back $15 which is a pretty good price for all three services.
