Peacock Premium Plus is available to Prime Video customers for $17 per month.

Fans of NBC series, Universal Pictures movies and steamy summer dating shows have a new way to access the streaming service that specializes in all of them.

Peacock Premium Plus, NBCUniversal’s ad-free streaming tier, is now available as a Prime Video add-on subscription as part of a broader set of agreements between Comcast NBCUniversal and Amazon, the online shopping giant revealed Thursday. 

Peacock Premium Plus costs $17 per month or $170 per year, the standard price after last month’s hike. Prime members who pay for the add-on can watch content from Peacock directly through the Prime Video app. 

Before the announcement, Prime members could choose from Prime Video add-on subscriptions to prominent streamers like Apple TV Plus, Paramount Plus and HBO Max (according to Amazon, there are more than 100 subscription options in the US). With the Amazon-Comcast NBCUniversal agreements, the Peacock app will continue to be available on Fire TV devices, while Xfinity X1 and Xumo customers will still have access to Prime Video. Customers can also continue to rent and buy Universal Pictures Home Entertainment films through Prime Video.

Peacock Premium Plus has a higher price tag than ad-based Peacock Premium, but it’s the only way to get downloads and your live local NBC station. For more on the streaming service, read our review.
