Happy National Streaming Day, folks. Coined by Roku back in 2014 as a way of self-promoting its streaming devices and subscriptions, National Streaming Day is now an unofficial holiday falling on May 20 every year. If you’ve been searching for streaming deals, now’s a good opportunity to sign up for new services for a steal.
Although Roku created the holiday, we’ve seen other streamers throw their hats in the ring in years past — like this $1 per month Hulu deal from 2022 — and this year is no different. But Roku still has the biggest selection of streaming deals to choose from. This time around, the streaming device company is offering up to 90 percent off subscriptions to MGM+, Starz, Shudder, AMC+, and more. The only catch is you have to sign up through the Roku Channel, which is completely free and can be accessed through your web browser, a Roku streaming device, or an Amazon Fire TV device.
Without further ado, here are the best streaming deals on National Streaming Day 2025. Be sure to sign up ASAP, as most of the deals expire sooner than you think. For example, all the Roku Channel offers end May 21 at 2:59 a.m. ET.

Technically this Peacock deal isn’t exclusively for National Streaming Day, but we’re including it because it’s such an impressive deal. Through May 30, new and returning Peacock subscribers can get one year of Peacock Premium for only $24.99 with code SPRINGSAVINGS. That’s 68% off the usual cost of $79.99 per year and breaks down to a little over $2 per month. We’re big fans of Peacock; it’s easy to use, always has great deals, and features a highly impressive catalog of movies and shows. It’s where you’ll find movies like Wicked, Nosferatu, and Black Bag, popular shows like The Office, New Girl, and Yellowstone, and Peacock Originals like Poker Face and Long Bright River.
Best National Streaming Day deal for movie lovers
Mubi is not your average streaming service. It’s specifically made for cinephiles, with a library that’s brimming with quality international cinema. It’s home to Mubi originals like recent Oscar nominee The Substance, plus plenty of mainstream, classic, independent, and award-winning movies. It’s also where you’ll find The People’s Joker and Bird, two more of our favorite movies of 2024. For a limited time, new and returning subscribers can get Mubi for only $3.99 per month for 4 months. That’s a massive $44 in savings, as it usually costs $14.99 per month.

Best National Streaming Day deal on Roku
Roku’s deals are aplenty this Streaming Day, but our favorite is this one on MGM+. Through May 22 at 2:59 a.m. ET, new and returning subscribers can sign up for MGM+ for only 99 cents per month for two months on the Roku Channel. Usually $6.99 per month, that saves you $12 total. MGM+ is home to a ton of movies we love, like Challengers, Better Man, Blink Twice, and Nickel Boys. The streamer also features its own original series like Godfather of Harlem, From, and Hotel Cocaine. Just be sure to cancel your subscription before your promotional period ends if you want to avoid paying full price.

Why we like it
Free streaming? Yes, please. Through June 26, you can sign up for one month of Apple TV+ for free through Roku. Just install and open the app on your Roku device and follow the prompts to subscribe and you’ll enjoy an entire month of free streaming, as opposed to the usual free seven-day trial. A month gives you more time to stream some Apple TV+ original series like Severance, Ted Lasso, and Palm Royale, and movies like The Gorge, Killers of the Flower Moon, and Echo Valley.
