How Much Does DAZN Cost?
DAZN offers one simple plan to all subscribers, so you don’t have to scroll through endless plan options to find the right fit for you. You can opt to pay $19.99/month with the option to cancel at any time, or you can choose the yearly subscription at $149.99 (equivalent to $12.50/month, making it 37.5% cheaper than the monthly plan).
Optional Add-Ons
While your subscription plan provides access to a large catalog of fights and sports matches, DAZN does charge a pay-per-view (PPV) fee for some exclusive fights.
For example, subscribers had the option to watch the Canelo vs. Bivol fight on May 7, 2022 for $59.99. If you don’t subscribe to DAZN, you could still have watched the fight through the streaming service for a higher price of $79.99.
In some cases, DAZN will also offer exclusive deals when non-subscribers purchase a PPV fight through its streaming service. For example, those who watched the Canelo vs. Bivol fight for $79.99 were also given access to a month of DAZN’s entire subscription offerings.
How Does DAZN Work?
Signing up for DAZN is easy and can be done through your desktop, Apple device, Amazon device, Google Play billing, smart TV, or gaming console.
During the straightforward signup process, you’ll be prompted to enter some basic account information, including your name, email address, and password. After that, you’ll be taken to a page to enter your payment information.
Alternatively, you can simply download the DAZN app on your smartphone or tablet. During the signup process, you’ll be asked for your email address, and then you can confirm your payment method via the Apple Store or Google Play. Enter your username and password, and you’ll be ready to go.
Once you’ve signed up, you can immediately begin watching through your computer, or wherever you have an internet connection on your tablet, smartphone, or game console via the app. DAZN is also compatible with most TV streaming devices, including Roku, Amazon Fire Stick, Apple TV, and Fire TV.
Is DAZN Reliable and Safe?
Yes, DAZN is reliable and safe. The platform uses industry-standard security measures to collect, store, and transfer your personal information. It also uses encryption and hashing to protect against any unlawful or accidental alteration, destruction, loss, or unauthorized disclosure of your personal data.
The streaming performance is also solid, as you can view live streams at 720p and about 60 FPS.
Help and Support
DAZN offers a robust help page that includes many FAQ articles, such as “How do I reactivate my account?” and “What are DAZN supported devices?”
You can also enter a keyword on the help page to easily find the question you’re looking for. If you can’t find the answers you need, you can contact DAZN customer support via email, or 24/7 via the website’s digital assistant. DAZN does not offer customer support via phone, but you can get an instant response from the digital assistant, and you can expect a response via email within a couple of business days.
What About the DAZN App?
The DAZN app is available on both Android and iOS devices. The app offers a minimal black-and-white aesthetic and runs just as smoothly as the desktop site. There is a menu at the bottom of the app for navigation, which includes Home, Sports, and Schedule icons, making it easy for you to find the content you’re looking for.
There is also a menu on the left-hand side, where you can set reminders for upcoming events, review your account settings, and access support, including FAQs. The Daily Schedule tab lets you know exactly what’s playing and when to watch, and there’s also a tab that enables you to easily bounce from sport to sport.
Bottom Line
If you’re a fan of MMA and boxing, DAZN is a solid option, especially considering that you don’t have to fork out extra PPV fees for many highly-anticipated fights. DAZN is also a great choice for those who enjoy watching more niche sports that are hard to find on other channels or streaming services, such as cricket and darts.
While DAZN doesn’t allow for offline downloading, you can stream your favorite sports via web browser or the app on multiple devices simultaneously (up to five), including smartphones, tablets, game consoles, or TVs. Additionally, most major fights are available for replay. If you’re not a fan of boxing and MMA, your money is likely better spent elsewhere, as most of DAZN’s content centers around these sports.
