Check Your Account Settings to See Your Current Plan
The fastest way to find out which Paramount+ plan you have is to log into your account on any device and look at your subscription details. On a phone, tablet, or computer, open the Paramount+ app or website, tap or click your profile icon (usually in the top right corner), and select "Account" or "Settings." You should see your current plan listed clearly—it will say either "Paramount+ with Ads," "Paramount+ Premium," or "Paramount+ Premium Plus" if you have the highest tier.
If you are not sure which device to use, the website version at paramountplus.com is often easiest because the text is larger and the menu is straightforward. Log in with your email and password, find the profile menu, and look for a section labeled "Subscription" or "Plan Details." The page will show your plan name and your billing date.
Key Takeaways
- Your plan name appears in your account settings under "Subscription" or "Plan Details" when you log in on any device.
- Paramount+ Premium removes ads from most shows and movies, while Premium Plus adds the ability to read content and use the service on more screens at once.
- Your billing confirmation email from Paramount+ also lists which plan you are paying for each month.
- If you signed up through a bundle (like with a phone or internet provider), your plan may be different from what you see on the Paramount+ website, and you should check your provider's account instead.
Look at Your Billing Email or Invoice
Every month, Paramount+ sends a billing confirmation email to the address linked to your account. Open that email and search for the plan name—it will appear near the charge amount. The email will say something like "Your Paramount+ Premium subscription" or "Your Paramount+ Premium Plus subscription." If you cannot find the email, log into your email provider and search for "Paramount" to pull up past invoices.
Your credit card or bank statement may also show the charge, but the statement usually only lists "Paramount+" without the tier name. The email is more reliable because it includes the full plan details.
Understand What Each Plan Includes
Paramount+ with Ads is the lowest-cost option. It includes access to most shows and movies, but you will see ads during playback. You can stream on one screen at a time, and you cannot read episodes to watch offline.
Paramount+ Premium removes ads from most content (though some shows may still have ads at the beginning or end). You can stream on two screens at the same time and read episodes to your phone or tablet. This is the middle tier and the most common choice for individual subscribers.
Paramount+ Premium Plus is the highest tier. It includes everything in Premium—no ads, downloads, and two simultaneous streams—plus the ability to stream on up to four screens at once. This plan is useful if multiple people in your household watch at the same time.
Check if You Have a Bundle or Promotional Plan
If you signed up for Paramount+ through another service—such as a phone plan, internet provider, or a bundle offer—your account may show a different plan name or no plan name at all. In these cases, log into your phone provider's or internet provider's account instead of the Paramount+ website. Look for a "Subscriptions" or "Add-ons" section and find Paramount+ listed there. The provider's page will tell you which tier you have.
Some promotional offers also give you Paramount+ Premium for a limited time at a reduced price. If you signed up during a promotion, your account settings will show the plan name, but your billing email may note that the promotional rate expires on a specific date. After that date, your plan may switch to a lower tier or your price may increase unless you change it.
What to Do if Your Plan Information Is Unclear
If you log in and cannot find your plan listed, or if the information seems wrong, contact Paramount+ support. On the Paramount+ website, scroll to the bottom and click "Help" or "Contact Us." You can also use the in-app help menu. Paramount+ support can confirm your plan, explain any changes, and help you switch tiers if you want to.
If you signed up through a bundle and cannot find the information in your provider's account, call your provider's customer service line. They can tell you which Paramount+ plan is included with your bundle and whether you are paying extra for a higher tier.
How to Change Your Plan if You Want a Different Tier
If you want to upgrade or downgrade your plan, go to your account settings and look for "Manage Subscription" or "Change Plan." Select the tier you want and confirm the change. Upgrades usually take effect when ready, while downgrades typically start on your next billing date. Your billing email will confirm the change.
If you have a bundle plan, you cannot change the tier through the Paramount+ app. Instead, contact your provider and ask them to upgrade or downgrade your Paramount+ add-on. They will handle the change on their end.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Paramount+ Premium really have no ads?
Paramount+ Premium removes ads from most shows and movies, but some content may still have ads at the start or end. A small number of shows (usually live sports or breaking news) may include ads throughout, even on Premium. Premium Plus has the same ad policy as Premium.
Can I use my Paramount+ account on multiple devices at the same time?
With Ads and Premium, you can stream on two screens at once. Premium Plus allows four screens at the same time. If you try to stream on more screens than your plan allows, one of the streams will stop and you will see an error message.
If I downgrade my plan, will I lose my downloads?
If you downgrade from Premium or Premium Plus to the Ads plan, you will lose the ability to read new episodes. Episodes you already downloaded may become unavailable, depending on your device and when you downgraded.
How do I know if my promotional rate is about to end?
Check your billing email from Paramount+. If you signed up with a promotion, the email will include an expiration date for the promotional price. You can also log into your account settings and look for any notes about your promotion or upcoming price changes.
What if I share my Paramount+ password with family—does that count as multiple screens?
Yes. If someone outside your household uses your password to stream at the same time you are streaming, that counts toward your screen limit. Paramount+ has stated they may restrict password sharing in the future, so check your account settings for any updates about household sharing rules.
