Sling TV Plans and Pricing

  • Sling has moved from its original two-plan structure to six tiers, so there’s now a plan for nearly every budget and viewing habit:
  • Sling Essentials ($19.99/mo): 10+ channels, including ESPN, Disney Channel, Grit, and Freeform. Good entry-level option for sports and family viewing.
  • Sling Select ($19.99+/mo): 10+ channels, including FOX News, NFL Network, FX, and National Geographic. Good for news and general entertainment.
  • Essentials & Select Bundle ($34.99/mo): Combines both plans above for 15+ channels, covering sports, news, and entertainment together.
  • Sling Orange ($45.99/mo): 30+ channels, including ESPN, CNN, TNT, and TBS. Best for sports and family households; this is the plan that includes ESPN.
  • Sling Blue ($45.99/mo): 40+ channels, including FOX News, MSNBC (now branded MS NOW), USA, and Bravo. Best for news and general entertainment.
  • Sling Orange & Blue ($60.99/mo): Combines Orange and Blue for 50+ channels, the largest lineup Sling offers.
  • Sling also sells short-term access outside of monthly billing: a 1-Day Pass ($4.99), a 3-Day Pass ($9.99), and a 7-Day Pass ($14.99), plus a 3-month prepay option starting around $115 upfront. These passes are useful if you only need Sling for a single event or a short trip, rather than an ongoing subscription.
