If you’re part of the Outlander fandom, you may want to know how to watch Starz, and preferably, for free. Luckily, you’ve got a few streaming options, along with current Starz deals.

At a Glance: Starz Free Trial

Outlander, a historical drama based on Diana Gabaldon’s books of the same name, premiered in August 2014 and has become one of Starz’s highest-rated series. But it isn’t the only reason to watch Starz. Since the network launched more than 20 years ago, Starz has created dozens of original TV shows, including P-Valley, The Girlfriend Experience, American Gods, Black Sails, Power, and Vida. Along with its premium cable network, Starz also has its own streaming service, the Starz App, which offers hundreds of hours of TV shows and movies such as Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Jumanji, and Bad Boys for Life, as well as original programs like The Power Book III: Raising Kanan Returns.

But if you don’t want to pay a single penny for Starz, there are ways to watch it online for free. Below, find great streaming options and ongoing Starz deals.

Does Starz have a free trial?

Unfortunately, Starz no longer has a free trial (it has previously offered a seven-day free trial). However, the streaming service still has several deals that are almost free compared to its expensive competitors. Plus, other streamers’ free trials and promotions let you watch Starz at no cost.

How to watch Starz for free

There are four ways to watch Starz for free: DirecTV, Hulu, Fubo, Amazon Prime Video. All four options have free trials, but even after the trials end, their monthly prices aren’t too shabby.

DirecTV Stream

DirecTV Stream is currently offering 50% off of Starz for three months (that’s $5.49 per month for three months). After that, you’ll have to pay $10.99 per month and can cancel any time. Overall, we highly recommend DirecTV Stream because of its five-day free trial and its wide variety of channels and local networks (and sporting events!).

Starz Promotions & Deals

Starz’s current limited-time offer secures you a monthly plan for $4.99 per month instead of $11.99 per month (that’s 58% in savings for three months) or an annual pan for $3 per month instead of $69.99 per year, but only when you prepay $35.99 for 12 months. Just note that this offer is available to new Starz app subscribers who sign up on the network’s website. After the promo ends, you will automatically have to pay the original price month-to-month unless you cancel your subscription. These promotions make Starz even more cost-effective than a lot of its competitors.
