ESPN+ has confirmed the increases on both their monthly and yearly plan options.
Starting from 23 August users will pay $9.99 from $6.99 and the annual will also jump to $99.99 from $69.99.
The company is yet to notify its users, which they will notify them next week via email.
In a statement the streaming service said: “The change reflects the significantly increased scope, scale, and value of ESPN+ as we continue to add significantly to both live sports and original programs and series, and it is part of an established plan to ensure ESPN+ is a profitable and strong long-term business.”
According to the company, they added expanded National Football League (NFL) rights, LaLiga, Premier Lacrosse League, National Lacrosse League, college sports such as SEC (Southeastern Conference) and Big 12, as well as expanded rights to Wimbledon and the Australian Open.
This is the first time the streaming service increases their monthly and annual payment option by 43%, which is beyond the inflation rate.
