How to Link Disney Plus and Verizon

If you're a Verizon customer and have been holding out on getting Disney Plus, wait no more as you can get the streaming service free for a full year.

The new Disney Plus streaming service is rolling out like gangbusters. It saw nearly 10 million subscribers on the first day and gains millions more every week. If you've been holding out and a Verizon Wireless customer in the United States, you can get one year of Disney Plus for free. Here's how to do it.

Who Qualifies

Verizon Wireless offers a one-year free membership to the Disney Plus streaming video service to those customers with an unlimited plan for a limited time. It's also available for anyone who switches to 5G Home Internet. After the year, you can continue watching Disney Plus at the regular price of $6.99 per month.

Eligible plans include the Verizon Unlimited plan, Go Unlimited, Beyond Unlimited, Above Unlimited, Get More Unlimited, Do More Unlimited, Play More Unlimited, and Start Unlimited. Business accounts are not eligible. Additionally, the Disney Plus offer is only for new Fios and 5G Home customers. Again, business accounts are not eligible.

Is Disney Plus Really Free?

If you have an eligible Verizon Wireless plan or only recently signed up for Fios and 5G Home, you can take advantage of the free Disney Plus promotion. However, the offer is only for Disney Plus and doesn't include Hulu or ESPN+, which are available separately or through a special bundle that's being offered directly from Disney. In this case, however, Disney will automatically credit you the Disney Plus Verizon promotion value each month as long as you stay enrolled. To receive the credit each month, you must subscribe to the bundle using the same email address associated with your Disney Plus account.

You can also switch to the bundle after you get your Verizon Wireless offer. To do so, you'll next log into your Disney Plus account, then choose Billing Details. From there, select Switch to Disney bundle.

Additionally, if you have already signed up for Disney Plus and are a Verizon Wireless customer, you can qualify for the special deal. In this case, you'll need to sign up (again) through the Verizon customer portal then follow the directions to pause the previously created account.

How to Sign Up for the Promotion

To take advantage of this special deal as a Verizon Wireless customer, you'll need to use the My Verizon app.

  1. Open the My Verizon app.
  2. Tap the Menu icon in the top left
  3. ChooseAccount.
  4. Sign in using your login information
  5. Under the Entertainment tab, choose to Learn More under Disney Plus.
  6. Review and accept the Terms and Conditions, then tap Confirm.
  7. On the Disney Plus enrollment screen, tap Continue.

  1. Enter your email address. This address cannot be already in use by an active Disney Plus account.
  2. Review Disney's Privacy Policy and Subscriber Agreement, then click Agree & Continue.
  3. Enter a password and click Continue.

You'll be prompted to install the Disney Plus app on your device. From there, you can begin enjoying Disney Plus on any supported device.

Fios customers looking to receive Disney Plus for free will receive an email with an access link to sign up. The email will arrive once the Fios installation at your home is complete.
