AMC+ Annual Plan Drops to $39.99 Before Monday Deadline
A 60% cut brings AMC+'s yearly price to about $3.33 a month, but only if you pick the right plan before Monday.
The deal, in dollars
AMC+ is running a limited-time discount that brings its annual Premium plan down from $109.99 to $39.99, a $70 savings, or about $3.33 a month if you spread it across the year. That’s roughly a third of what most people pay monthly for a single streaming service, locked in for 12 months instead of one. The offer is open to new subscribers and to existing customers willing to switch to the annual plan. According to Cord Cutters News, the promotion is set to end Monday, October 12.
The catch is in the selection screen. The discount applies only to the Annual Premium plan, not the standard monthly subscription, which stays at its regular price. Anyone who accidentally signs up month-to-month will miss the savings entirely.
What you actually get for $39.99
AMC+ isn’t just reruns of the flagship network. The Premium tier bundles in BBC America, IFC, and Sundance TV programming, plus full access to Shudder, Sundance Now, and IFC Films Unlimited, services that would otherwise need separate subscriptions. For horror fans, the timing lines up with AMC’s FearFest, marking its 30th anniversary in 2026 with more than 650 hours of genre programming across AMC and AMC+, including marathons of Halloween, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, Final Destination, Insidious, Child’s Play, and Stephen King titles like Carrie, Christine, and Misery.
Beyond the seasonal horror lineup, subscribers get the full season of The Terror: Devil in Silver, The Vampire Lestat, and Season 3 of The Walking Dead: Dead City. A new supernatural thriller, YAGA, starring Carrie-Anne Moss and Noah Reid, is set to premiere October 23, meaning anyone who locks in the annual deal now will have it waiting in their queue.
Who benefits, and who doesn’t
This is a clear win for anyone already planning to add a streaming service this fall, especially horror and genre fans who’d otherwise be paying full freight across multiple apps for similar content. Spread over 12 months, $39.99 works out to less than the cost of a single movie ticket in most U.S. markets, and far less than what a monthly AMC+ subscription would cost over the same stretch.
It’s less useful for anyone who only wants to binge a show or two around Halloween and cancel. The annual commitment means you’re paying upfront, and there’s no indication from Cord Cutters News that the discount applies to a monthly-only option or includes an easy pro-rated exit.
What to do about it
If you’re considering AMC+, don’t delay past Monday, October 12, that’s the cutoff cited for the offer. When you sign up, double-check that you’re selecting the Annual Premium plan specifically; the monthly plan won’t carry the discount. And if you already subscribe to AMC+ on a monthly basis, it’s worth checking whether switching to the discounted annual plan before it closes could save you money over the next year, since $39.99 upfront beats paying full monthly price for twelve months straight.
