Why Peacock keeps raising prices
Peacock launched in 2020 as one of the cheapest major streamers at $4.99/month, but it has raised prices every year since 2023. Premium climbed to $5.99 (2023), $7.99 (2024) and $10.99 (July 2025), more than doubling in five years, while the ad-free Premium Plus tier reached $16.99.
NBCUniversal has leaned on big events — the Olympics, NFL and Premier League — to justify each increase, and the 2025 round was timed for the back half of the year. As with most streamers, the staggered rollout means new subscribers pay first (July 23, 2025) and existing ones a month later (August 22), so the higher charge can slip past you for a billing cycle.
A service that raises prices on an annual rhythm is one to watch closely, because the increases compound. Logging the price you pay each month makes Peacock’s next yearly bump obvious the moment it lands, rather than a surprise on your statement.
