At the investor event in March, the company announced +Play, a free web-based platform exclusive to the company that gives customers access to subscription services across entertainment, music, gaming, fitness, lifestyle and more.
+play is a service that allows customers to purchase and manage accounts for over 20 services.
The +play users will receive a 12 month subscription to the premium tier of the streaming service. The offer is only available for a short time.
There is no additional cost for customers to get + Play. You can get early access to the platform by logging into it with your existing account information. Once a user subscribes to a service through +play, they can use the service directly through the app or online portal.
Like many other subscription hubs, +play has a Discover tab, a Shop tab, and a Manage tab where users can have all their account payments in one place. Users will get notifications every time a free trial ends or there is a price change.
The platform will evolve over time and will include new services, exclusive offers and features.

As the network America relies on and one of the largest direct-to- consumer distributors in the U.S., we are positioned to move the industry forward by offering customers more choice and enabling a seamless billing and management. Customers will be able to get all of their favorite content and a special offer only in +play.
The rise of streaming service aggregations is likely to lead to more customers wanting +play. Primetime channels on YouTube allow users to subscribe and watch content from more than one service. There are other competitors, including Apple.
This is a huge milestone for the industry as a whole and we are proud to continue to be pioneers in the new era of content and subscription services.
