Amazon is making it easier and more affordable for Prime members to access premium streaming content by introducing a new limited-time bundle that combines Prime Video, Apple TV, and Peacock Premium Plus into one convenient package. According to a report from The Verge, Prime Video subscribers with an active Amazon Prime membership can now add both Apple TV and the ad-free Peacock Premium Plus tier for a total of $19.99 per month. This represents a meaningful discount compared to subscribing to Apple TV and Peacock Premium Plus separately, which would normally cost around $29.98 per month. The bundle allows users to stream all content from the three services directly through the Prime Video app or website, creating a more unified viewing experience without needing to switch between multiple platforms. Bundle Details and Savings • Price: $19.99/month for the full bundle (Prime Video + Apple TV + Peacock Premium Plus) A matching bundle is also available directly through Apple TV or Peacock for the same $19.99 price (or a lower $14.99 tier with ads on Peacock). An active Amazon Prime subscription (currently $14.99/month or $139/year) is required for the Prime Video version of the bundle. Note that while Peacock content in the bundle is largely ad-free, certain live sports and events may still include ads. For a completely ad-free Prime Video experience, users may need to upgrade to Prime Video Ultra separately. The combination brings together complementary libraries: • Apple TV: Award-winning original series and films such as Severance, Ted Lasso, and theatrical releases like F1 (starring Brad Pitt), along with high-quality originals across drama, comedy, and documentaries. • Peacock: Extensive NBCUniversal content, including hit reality shows like The Traitors, beloved NBC and Bravo series, blockbuster movies, and extensive live sports coverage (NFL, NBA, Premier League, Olympics, and more). • Prime Video: Amazon’s own library of movies, TV shows, and originals, now serving as the central hub for the bundled content. This marks one of the more interesting cross-company streaming partnerships, pairing Apple’s premium original programming with Peacock’s strong sports and broadcast tie-ins, all accessible via Amazon’s platform. The bundle is currently available to all eligible Prime subscribers in the United States. Users can activate it through the “Subscriptions” section in the Prime Video app or on the Prime Video website. The offer is described as limited-time, though no specific end date has been announced. Why This Bundle Matters Streaming fatigue has led many consumers to seek bundles that reduce both cost and app-switching hassle. With recent price increases across several services, partnerships like this one help deliver better value. The move also reflects ongoing industry consolidation, where major players collaborate on bundles rather than purely competing head-to-head. Prime members who already enjoy Amazon’s shipping perks and Prime Video library now have an easy path to add high-end Apple originals and Peacock’s sports-heavy lineup without managing separate bills and logins.
