Disney+ has announced that it is raising the monthly subscription fee for its streaming service. The change will be effective on both the Basic and Premium monthly plans from Dec 18 onwards.
The Basic plan, which allows up to three devices to be logged in simultaneously and supports a single 1080p stream, will see an RM5 increase from RM24.90 to RM29.90 a month.
Meanwhile, the Premium plan – which allows simultaneous logins on up to 10 devices and three concurrent streams in 4K – gets a monthly fee hike from RM39.90 to RM49.90.
This will also affect the Premium quarterly plan offered by the platform, which will cost RM99.90 for three months. Currently, it is priced at RM79.90. Disney+ does not offer a Basic version of the quarterly plan.
Existing quarterly subscribers will see the new pricing in their following billing cycle after the price increase goes into effect.
The Disney+ help page further states that subscription fee for the yearly plan will remain unchanged, with the Basic and Premium plans still being priced at RM214.90 and RM289.90 per year respectively.
The streaming service also notes that customers may see a higher fee than the stated subscription charge in their bill due to foreign transaction fees depending on payment methods, third-party Internet access charges, bank charges, and taxes, which are not included in the subscription fee.
