Recommended Free Tools
Disney+ has several limited-time perks listed for eligible U.S. subscribers, but most are discounts, trials with paid renewals, or promotions with narrow rules—not a way to get Disney+ or Hulu free. Hulu’s official Perks page currently marks its displayed offers expired. Check the official pages before counting any perk as a saving, because offers and prices can change.
What Disney+ subscribers can claim through Perks
Disney+ Perks is a changing offer program, not a guaranteed set of benefits. Its terms list the following offers as of October 7, 2026; each has its own eligibility requirements and deadline. The program requires an active Disney+ subscription and access through Perks using the associated MyDisney account. Some offers also depend on location, age, prior use, or separate redemption steps. Read the Disney+ Perks offer terms before claiming.
- Fandango: Up to $10 off one ticket for Avengers Endgame: Encore at participating U.S. theaters. The offer expires October 31, 2026, or when the film leaves theaters, whichever comes first. It is a ticket discount, not a free ticket to any movie.
- CLEAR+: $40 off the first-year membership fee for eligible first-time U.S. members. Identity verification must be completed in person. Membership renews annually at CLEAR’s then-current standard rate unless canceled.
- Calm Premium: A free trial is listed through February 10, 2027 for eligible active U.S. subscribers who have not previously used a Calm Premium free trial. It automatically renews as a one-year subscription at the then-current retail price, stated in the terms as $79.99, and renews annually after that unless canceled.
- Spotify Premium: A three-month trial for new Premium users is listed through January 8, 2028, subject to availability and other eligibility rules. The terms state that it costs $12.99 per month after the offer period.
- Disney Pinnacle: A monthly mystery capsule with a digital pin is listed for a promotion that began September 24, 2026 and runs through October 22, 2026. Monthly codes are scheduled through January 31, 2027. Location, age, availability, and official rules apply.
- Wolverine in-game suit: The offer runs September 14 through November 14, 2026, while supplies last. It requires an active Disney+ subscription and Perks enrollment; the game is sold separately, and the code must be redeemed through PlayStation Store under regional conditions.
Perks terms also list 15% off eligible full-price items at Funko.com for eligible U.S. residents with an active Disney+ subscription. Codes and product exclusions apply. This is an optional shopping discount, not a cash credit or a reduction in the streaming bill. Details are in the Funko offer terms.
What Hulu Perks currently show
Hulu’s official Perks page currently labels its displayed promotions as no longer available. The page describes offers as limited-time and points readers to individual promotion terms, so check it directly for any replacement offers rather than assuming an older promotion still works.

Hulu announced Perks in June 2025 with weekly summer offers, including sweepstakes, partner promotions, and deals involving DashPass, adidas, Funko/Loungefly, CLEAR+, and Duolingo. Those are historical examples, not evidence of currently claimable benefits. A sweepstakes chance to win is also not the same as a guaranteed free product.
How to weigh perks against subscription costs
The current U.S. Disney+ and Hulu bundle page lists six-month introductory pricing, followed by higher ongoing monthly prices. Compare the recurring cost—not just the first bill—against whether you will actually use an offer.

| Bundle option | First six months | After six months |

| Disney+ and Hulu without ads | $19.99 per month | $21.99 per month |
These are the U.S. prices listed on the official bundle page; check its terms for eligibility and renewal details. Disney’s September 23, 2026 pricing notice says new-subscription prices took effect that day and existing subscribers see the change on or after October 21, 2026. Disney+ says it does not offer a free trial. Hulu’s pricing page gives the same new-price and existing-subscriber timing; third-party billing prices may vary. See the Disney+ price and free-trial information and Hulu pricing information.
- Compare the ad-supported and ad-free viewing experience you want, not only the introductory rate.
- Check when introductory pricing ends and what recurring charge follows.
- Compare standalone subscriptions with the bundle if you intend to keep both services.
- Count a perk only if you meet its rules, can use it before it expires, and would otherwise pay for the product or service.
- For trials, note the cancellation deadline and renewal terms before signing up. The Calm and Spotify terms, for example, specify paid renewals after their free periods.
A discount may be useful to a subscriber who already planned to buy the eligible item or membership. It does not necessarily offset a streaming price increase: the value depends on eligibility, redemption, timing, and whether the offer replaces a purchase you would have made anyway.
