Fubo Price in 2026: Every Plan, the Regional Sports Fee and What a Year Costs
Fubo costs $88.99 a month for its main Pro plan in 2026, and most areas add a Regional Sports Fee on top. With that fee, Pro lands between about $102 and $105 a month. The cheaper Fubo Sports plan costs $64.99 and has no sports fee.
Fubo is the sports fan's live-TV service, and its price has done more moving in the last year than a punt returner. It fell $11 in December 2025, when NBC's channels left, then rose $15 in June 2026, when NBC came back. Below are the current prices for every plan, what the sports fee adds where you live, and what a full year of Fubo really costs.

Fubo plans and prices in 2026
Fubo sells one skinny sports plan and four full plans, from $64.99 to $118.99 a month before fees. The full plans share one base lineup and add more channels as you go up.
| Plan | Monthly price | Regional Sports Fee |
|---|---|---|
| Fubo Sports | $64.99 | No |
| Pro (Essential or Core in some markets) | $88.99 | Yes, in most areas |
| Elite | $98.99 | Yes, in most areas |
| Ultimate | $113.99 | Yes, in most areas |
| Deluxe | $118.99 | Yes, in most areas |
Prices from PCWorld's report of July 3, 2026, matched against Streaming Price Tracker, last verified October 2026. Fubo builds the final price from your ZIP code, so its checkout page is the only place you see your exact total.
Pro is the plan most people mean when they say "Fubo." It carries the local networks, the ESPN and FOX sports channels, entertainment and news. Elite and the bigger tiers add more sports and entertainment networks. Fubo's full plans are also known for unlimited cloud DVR and room for several screens at home, which most 2026 reviews list.
The Regional Sports Fee
The Regional Sports Fee is Fubo's extra monthly charge for carrying your area's regional sports network. It adds about $13 to $17 a month on the full plans, depending on your market.
PCWorld found a $16 fee in Boston, Philadelphia and Northern California, and $13 to $17 in other markets. Fubo's help center put it at $15.99 in areas served by NBC Sports regional networks. The fee doesn't appear on Fubo's landing page. You first see it at checkout, which is a fun surprise if your idea of fun is paying more.
The regional network is where your local NBA, NHL or MLB team often plays. If you follow a pro team in your city, the fee may be worth it. If you only watch the NFL and college football, you are paying about $190 a year for games you never open.
Our finding: At $15.99 a month, the Regional Sports Fee costs $191.88 a year. That is more than a 12-month IPTVZ plan for two devices, $119.99. And that plan carries NBC Sports Bay Area, Boston and California among its US channels.
Fubo Sports at $64.99
Fubo Sports is the cheaper plan for people who mainly watch games, at $64.99 a month with no Regional Sports Fee. It launched on September 2, 2025, at $55.99, and rose $9 in June 2026, when NBC joined the lineup.
At launch, the plan carried ESPN, ESPN2, FS1, FS2, NFL Network, SEC Network, ACC Network, Big Ten Network, CBS Sports Network and Tennis Channel. Local ABC, CBS and FOX stations come in select markets, and NBC and NBCSN were added in June 2026. Fubo describes the plan as including "direct access to ESPN Unlimited."
That last part matters. ESPN Unlimited costs $31.99 a month on its own. If you would buy it anyway, Fubo Sports adds the broadcast networks, FOX's sports channels and NFL Network for about $33 more.
- New customers pay $54.99 for the first month, according to PPC Land's report of September 29, 2026.
- Quarterly billing costs $194.97, which is exactly three months at $64.99. It saves no money, only payments.
- My Local Sports, launched September 29, 2026, adds regional sports networks for 36 teams to Fubo Sports in select markets. Fubo says the price "varies per market."
Why Fubo's price fell and then jumped
Fubo's main plan dropped to $73.99 in December 2025 and rose to $88.99 in June 2026, because NBC's channels left and came back. Here is how it happened.
- November 21, 2025: NBCUniversal's channels went dark on Fubo after the two sides failed to renew their deal, Broadband TV News reported.
- December 2025: Fubo cut its full plans by $11 a month, so Pro fell from $84.99 to $73.99.
- June 2026: NBC, NBCSN, Telemundo, Cozi and the NBC Sports regional networks returned, and the full plans rose $15. Fubo Sports rose $9.
The channels NBCUniversal spun off into a new company, Versant, did not come back. As of PCWorld's July 2026 report, Fubo had no deal with Versant. So USA Network, Golf Channel, CNBC, MS NOW, E!, Syfy and Oxygen were missing. If you watch golf, WWE SmackDown or the Premier League matches that air on USA Network, check the lineup before you subscribe.

Over the longer run, the direction is clear. Fubo's main plan cost $34.99 in April 2017, according to Streaming Price Tracker. At $88.99, it now costs about 2.5 times as much, before the sports fee.
Fubo and Hulu + Live TV are one company now
Since October 2025, Fubo and Hulu + Live TV belong to the same company, and Disney owns about 70% of it. The deal closed with nearly 6 million subscribers combined, as WDWNT reported at the time.
For now, the two remain separate services with separate apps and prices. Hulu + Live TV comes bundled with Disney+, Hulu and ESPN Unlimited, while Fubo keeps its sports-first lineup. Our guide to the Hulu + Live TV price shows where each one comes out cheaper.
What a year of Fubo costs
A year of Fubo Pro with a $15.99 sports fee costs $1,259.76 before tax. Fubo Sports costs $779.88 for the year, and the chart shows how both compare with YouTube TV and IPTVZ.

| Setup for 12 months | Monthly | Year |
|---|---|---|
| Fubo Elite + $15.99 sports fee | $114.98 | $1,379.76 |
| Fubo Pro + $15.99 sports fee | $104.98 | $1,259.76 |
| Fubo Pro, no fee in your area | $88.99 | $1,067.88 |
| YouTube TV main plan | $82.99 | $995.88 |
| Fubo Sports | $64.99 | $779.88 |
| IPTVZ, 12 months, 2 devices | One payment | $119.99 |
All streaming figures are before tax, which many states add. The IPTVZ row is the 12-month plan for 2 devices. It costs $74.99 for one device and $194.99 for five.
How to pay less for Fubo
The biggest saving is choosing Fubo Sports if you don't need your regional sports network. That alone cuts the bill by $40 a month in a $15.99 fee area.
- Price your ZIP code first. The sports fee varies, and in some areas it is lower than $15.99.
- Take Fubo Sports if your viewing is the NFL, college football and ESPN. It skips the fee and includes ESPN Unlimited access.
- Use the first-month discount during a big stretch of games, not a quiet week.
- Cancel in the off-season. Fubo has no contract, so a football-only household can leave in February and come back in September. Our NFL season cost guide shows which months each game window needs.
- Skip the bigger tiers unless you know which extra channel you are paying for. Elite costs $120 a year more than Pro.
Fubo's sports for less
You can get most of Fubo's sports for less, but each cheaper route gives up something.
- An antenna gets the free broadcast networks, which carry most NFL Sundays and many big college games. It costs $25 to $60 once, and our local channels by state guide lists the stations in your market.
- ESPN Unlimited on its own, $31.99 a month, covers ESPN's networks and ESPN+ events without any live-TV service.
- Other live-TV services. Our guide to the cheapest live TV with local channels ranks YouTube TV, Sling, Hulu + Live TV and Fubo on price. Sling Essentials is the cheapest way to get ESPN on a TV, at $19.99 a month.
- IPTVZ carries ESPN, ESPN2, FS1, NFL Network, NFL RedZone, SEC Network, ACC Network, Big Ten Network and local stations. It costs $74.99 a year for one device.
The channels Fubo is missing are in our lineup too. Our panel catalogue of October 16, 2026 lists USA Network, Golf Channel and CNBC in its US section. It also has 16 NBC Sports channels, including the Bay Area, Boston and California regionals. Our cheapest way to watch the NFL guide prices a whole football season on each route.
Test it during a game, not a rerun
Start a free 24-hour IPTVZ trial on a game day and check your locals, ESPN and your regional network on your own TV. No card needed.
Who Fubo is still right for
Fubo is still a good fit if sports are most of your TV and you want a big-company app. Pay for it if:
- You follow a local pro team on a regional sports network that Fubo carries, and you want it in a polished app.
- You record a lot of games and like a cloud DVR without a storage limit.
- ESPN Unlimited is already on your list, which makes Fubo Sports a modest step up.
- You want soccer from many leagues in one app, which has been Fubo's thing since its early days.
If the sports fee is the line that bothers you, compare first. Our pillar guide on IPTV vs cable and streaming lays out the full yearly costs side by side.
