Streaming TV is now in its skinny bundle era, and Sling TV is getting in on the action with the launch of its new streaming packages aimed at short-term viewers. The company announced new Day Pass, Weekend Pass and Week Pass offerings on Tuesday, with pricing starting at $5.
Do you only want to watch one NFL game on a weekend? You can opt for a Day Pass at $5, or the $10 Weekend Pass. Each pass grants access to the streaming service for a short period of time. Get 24 hours of Sling with the Day Pass, stream TV shows and more from Friday through Sunday with the Weekend Pass, or pay $15 for seven days of viewing with Sling’s Week Pass.
Additionally, the streamer is giving pass subscribers the option to tack on an add-on channel package (Sling Extras) at a discounted rate. If you want a few extra channels, you can supplement with additions like Sports Extra, Entertainment Extra or Kids Extra. Add a Sling Extra package to your pass at $1 for a Day Pass, $2 for the Weekend Pass or $3 for a Week Pass.
Sling TV is one of the more budget-friendly live TV streaming services. It offers three plans with channel lineups that include networks such as ESPN, TNT, TBS, Disney Channel, Comedy Central and CNN. Monthly prices start at $46, and viewers can also watch movies on-demand from the platform’s library.
