If you are one of those who had completely ruled out subscribing to SkyShowtime, either because you were not convinced by its price or you did not see interesting movies in its catalog, you should know that the new offer announced for this July may be the best time to give it a try.
The streaming platform SkyShowtime announced this Wednesday a new collaboration agreement with Prime Video in four European countries, including Spain. Starting July 1, users will be able to contract SkyShowtime from their Amazon Prime Video account as a channel within the Amazon platform, at a cost of 7.99 euros per month, a price equivalent to the Standard Plus plan (without ads) that can be contracted from the same platform. However, until July 17, users who sign up from Prime Video will be able to receive a 50% discount for the first three months.
This offer is part of the weeks around Prime Day, Amazon’s event in which it offers discounts on numerous products. In addition to Spain, the same integration will be available in the Netherlands, Poland and Sweden, although it seems that the three-month discount offer will be exclusive to Spain.
This news was already expected, as it was known a few days before that the SkyShowtime application had been integrated with the Fire TV app store so that those who have this Amazon television device can access the platform comfortably. In parallel, SkyShowtime is available through the SkyShowtime app on Apple iOS, tvOS, Android devices, Android TV, Google Chromecast, LG connected TVs, Samsung smart TVs and through its website.
As indicated in a press release, the SkyShowtime catalog that can also be enjoyed from Prime Video includes some great productions, such as the following:
- Yellowstone and its spinoffs 1883 and 1923
- A Gentleman in Moscow
- Apples Never Fall
- Bargain
- HALO Seasons 1 and 2
- Mayor of Kingstown Season 3
- Mission Impossible: Deadly Sentence
- Oppenheimer
- Paw Patrol: The Super Movie
- Star Trek: Discovery Seasons 1-5
- The Family Stallone Seasons 1 and 2
- Trolls Band Together
The list includes SkyShowtime original productions: seasons 1 and 2 of The Sent Ones, The Tattooist of Auschwitz and Veronika.
