What Is the Best Sling TV Deal?
Right now, Sling is offering a few special deals, but the one we want to highlight is their Amazon Fire TV Stick Lite offer. If you claim this deal now and sign up for any one of Sling’s subscriptions, you can get $10 off your first month. That’s a great deal in itself, but the savings don’t end there! You’ll also be able to claim a free — yes, FREE! — Amazon Fire TV Stick Lite. The stick itself regularly costs $30 on Amazon, so you’ll reap a $40 reward when signing up for Sling with this deal.
Sling TV’s other major deal is their Season Pass for football fans hoping to ball on a budget. For the most comprehensive Sling football coverage, you can purchase Sling Orange & Blue + Sports Extra with a Sling Season Pass for just $274 for five months. With this deal, you’ll save $76 by committing to five months, since the plan regularly would cost $350 for five months at the regular rate of $70/month.

Does Sling TV Have a Free Trial?
There is not currently a Sling TV free trial available to new users. The platform, however, often has deals and discounts to make signing up cost-effective and simple. Sling is also contract-free, so you can cancel your subscription any time.
Is Sling TV Free?
Sling TV is not free, but a free option is offered. Sling Freestream is Sling’s FAST option that doesn’t require credit card information or a contracted commitment.

How Much Is Sling TV?
Sling offers three different subscriptions, plus the option to customize your plan with add-ons and extras. Right now, Sling is offering half-off the first month of all their plans! This deal cannot be combined with the Amazon Fire TV Stick deal.
If you’re a sports fanatic, or looking for something appropriate for the whole family, you may want to sign up for Sling Orange. For $40/month — and just $20 for your first month — you gain access to Disney and ESPN as well as 31 other channels including ESPN2, ESPN3, TNT, TBS, Cartoon Network, Nick Jr. and Freeform. Sling Orange is great for those hoping to tune in to Monday Night Kickoff, NBA Basketball, but also want to stay up to date on Yellowstone. And, if you feel like something is missing, you can customize your plan at any point by adding extras, such as the Comedy Extra, Kid Extra and Lifestyle Extra. Plus, you have 50 hours of DVR space to work with and thousands of movies and shows for on-demand streaming. (The downsides? You don’t get local channels, and you can only stream on one device.)
