Where do you go to add to your account? I have the Gift Card option under account settings but no coupon section.

I was able to apply it as well. There’s a coupon selection directly under Account > Subscription & Billing > Price. I entered it there.
Doesn’t renew for another 11 months but no harm in adding this now.

I tried to add it but it said it was not valid. However, I need to wait until the end of my billing cycle and just get the subscription for free as a Walmart Plus benefit.

Weird, I don't have the option to enter anything by price. I do have the Showtime add on, so it might not add on.

I purchased the $139 Paramount+ & Showtime Bundle last month and was able to add this coupon today.

I had just re-subscribed at the beginning of the month for the bundle at $129 for the year and it did let me add the code, so we'll see if it works for the bundled pack next year.

And there’s a specific coupon field? I don’t see that in my account area (using a computer). I added on Showtime a year ago and renewed with it earlier this year.

Edit: Went through their chat and they entered it in for me.

I don't see the coupon slot either.
My last sub was with a coupon code, so maybe that's why.

Paramount+ still hasn't caught up with the fact I cancelled Apple channel billing when the bundle pricing expired in September. App works even after 2 missed billing dates plus I can still sign in on new devices.

I don't know what they did, but fucking Paramount. The app is trash now. I will watch a show to the credits. I will exit out out of the app. Now the app shoots back 5-6 minutes before the credits, so it won't queue the next episode. It always used to pick up to the next episode.

For us it is about 1/2 way through the last episode we watched. Can never tell if new episodes are available or not. We've even tried to go part way into next episode in order to hopefully save that episode. Nope. Still middle of episode we watched till the end. Frustrating.

re: Paramount+ with Showtime - ViacomCBS streaming service

I was able to add the code under Account > Subscriptions & Billing > Coupon (right above Gift Card), but after I applied it, that field disappeared, so I guess that’s why some people aren’t seeing it.

My Star Trek Day code was about to expire on 10/30, and I was ready to cancel. I have been using it to watch Survivor/Amazing Race, The Good Fight, and Star Trek, but I don’t like the ads, and there are just little things that I find annoying compared to other services, like no movie cast lists. But I guess I’m in for now. I did it without Showtime because I get that free from my cable provider and rarely use it.

All 10 of the classic Star Trek movies just showed up on HBO Max.

I wish Paramount + was free if you have Showtime on Directv like HBO Max is with a HBO subcription

What? It is not the same thing. The Showtime app is free though with a Showtime cable/satellite subscription.

I have Paramount plus for $50 for a year through Sportsline. That’s already worth it.

Jeff doesn’t want to pay for it because that’s 5 Red Box movies he’ll be missing out on

So you can watch Paramount + shows for free on the Showtime app on a Samsung Smart TV?

No

you need to subscribe to Paramount plus. It’s not free with Showtime. Showtime is a paid add on to Paramount plus.

Why the continuing insistence that Paramount+ and Showtime are the same thing?

Maybe because of that article earlier saying that they are thinking of rolling Showtime into the base Paramount + package?

I have to say that I hate the current integration: hey here's a bunch of shows that are basically paywalled to you even though you have a subscription! Want to pay more?

Well they soon will be since they appear to be rolling them into the same app. I would assume Showtime would still be behind a paywall if you didn't want it.

I don't have that option either (and also have the Showtime add on), so I guess it doesn't show up if you already are signed up for such.

Free month is nice. I did the deal on Prime Day, so I don't know if there is anymore new content to check out. Since I went through Amazon I guess I would be considered a new account. Still thinking it over.
