Sling TV International Subscription Packages and Features
When talking about online streaming platforms and IPTV services, Sling TV happens to be among the top 5 best streaming platforms in the US.
They provide loads of content and some of the best TV channels at extremely affordable rates.
However, to answer your question on whether Sling TV can be accessed anywhere, then the answer is No.
Unfortunately, as of 2022, Sling TV only works within the coastal United States and Puerto Rico. Users around the world can gain access to the online TV streaming giant by using a VPN and purchasing one of Sling TVs premium packs.
Let me take you through Sling TV International Subscription Packages and Features so you understand what you’re getting for the amount you pay.
Sling TV International Subscription Packages and Features
To make it short and sweet, Sling TV used to be available to international users up until a few years ago. Now this IPTV is available only to those living in the US and Puerto Rico.
International users can avail Sling TV by purchasing one of their premium packages on their website which will be collected in US dollars.
How Much Does Sling TV Cost in 2022?
There are two premium packs available namely; Blue and Orange, and they are $35 each.
However, if you happen to combine both the packages then you will be eligible for a discount and will have to pay only $50.
Currently there’s on offer running where new customers will receive 50% discount on their first month with Sling TV. To avail these benefits, create a new account on Sling TV and then avail their limited time offer.
What is the Difference between Sling Blue and Sling Orange?
While both subscription plans seem to have similar benefits, upon closer inspection, there are some subtle differences between the two that will definitely make you choose one over the other.
For example, Sling Orange has over 31 channels some of which are not available on Sling Blue like Disney channels and ESPN network, so it might appeal to young adults and children.
On the other hand Sling Blue has 41 channels and some of the Fox and NBC owned channels that are not on Sling Orange are a part of this package.
While both plans are priced at the same $35 for a month. Subscribers can opt to pay $50 and have both Sling Orange and Sling Blue merged to get access to all the 47 channels Sling TV has to offer.
If you’re keen on adding other channels that are not a part of Sling Orange and Sling Blue then you can go ahead and take advantage of their A-la Carte add-ons and choose any of the mini bundles they have available.
Each add-on costs approx $6 a month and prices can go up to $10 depending on what premium add-on is selected.
All three plans come with 50 hours of DVR storage included, but only the Blue and Orange & Blue plans come with 3-device streams whereas the Orange plan only supports 1-device stream at a time.
