Apple TV+ Raises Its Monthly Subscription Cost Amid Annual Losses

Apple TV+ raises its monthly subscription by 30% to $12.99 to support new content amid $1 billion annual losses and 45 million subscribers, while annual plans remain $99.

  • On Thursday, Apple raised Apple TV+ monthly subscription to $12.99 starting Thursday in the U.S. and other countries, with new subscribers billed after a seven-day trial starting Thursday, Aug. 21.
  • Facing rising content costs, Apple Inc. and other streaming services have hiked fees this year to fund new content, marking Apple TV+'s first price increase since late 2023 amid reports it loses more than $1 billion annually.
  • Existing subscribers will keep the $9.99 rate until renewal, then pay $12.99 30 days later; the annual Apple TV+ plan and Apple One bundle remain unchanged.
  • Apple TV+ now sits at about 45 million subscribers and remains cheaper than many ad-free competitors while keeping its single-plan, ad-free model.
  • Earlier this year, Apple expanded the Apple TV+ app for Android, emphasizing its 81 Emmy nominations and promoting Apple One as a value option amid the price increase.
