Comcast customers can get a very good price on three streaming services. The company announced the details of Xfinity StreamSaverTM, a streaming bundle.
StreamSaver will launch next week to Xfinity customers nationwide and will include a subscription to Netflix Standard (with ads), Peacock Premium, and Apple TV+, delivering a savings of over 30% or nearly $100 a year.
The deal is a way for Comcast to reach out and get back customers who left the service as part of cord-cutting and appeal to customers who have moved onto broadband plans with telcos and other communications companies like Google. As traditional TV continues to lose subscribers broadband service has become a more important part of legacy cable companies. Finding ways to help customers save money on popular services helps expand demand. And there is no service more popular than Netflix.
“StreamSaver is a homerun for consumers who want top-tier entertainment and live sports, and for our world-class partners Peacock, Netflix and Apple who benefit from the reach and depth of our entertainment platforms and Xfinity’s marketing engine,” said Dave Watson, CEO of Connectivity and Platforms, Comcast. “StreamSaver also reinforces the value of our broadband products, offering customers new ways to save money on streaming entertainment via the nation’s best and most reliable network in and out of the home.”
With StreamSaver, customers can enjoy popular and award-winning TV shows and movies like Netflix’s Bridgerton and Atlas, Peacock’s Bel-Air and The Traitors, and The Morning Show and Slow Horses from Apple TV+. They will also have access to thousands of hours of live sports including MLB Friday Night Baseball from Apple TV+; NFL Football and WWE (starting in 2025) from Netflix; and NFL Football, Big Ten, Premier League, FIFA World Cup, Golf, WWE, NASCAR and every minute from the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympics from Peacock.
Current and new Xfinity Internet or TV customers can add Xfinity StreamSaver for an everyday price of $15 per month, with no annual contracts. People looking for more content can also add NOW TV to the mix and get a large package of general entertainment channels. It includes access to programming from three of the most popular streaming apps alongside AMC, A&E, Hallmark, History Channel, Lifetime, WEtv, plus over two dozen integrated FAST channels like AccuWeather, NBC News, TODAY All Day and Xumo Movies.
Customers can access all this programming via Comcast’s Entertainment OS platform via X1, Xumo Stream Box and Flex devices.
Additionally, customers can find the StreamSaver apps individually on smart TVs and connected devices like Apple TV, Roku Fire TV and the Google Chromecast.
