Roku Streaming Subscription Bundles Launch, Save Up to 30%
Roku began selling subscription bundles inside its Premium Subscriptions storefront on Sept. 17, 2026, letting U.S. and Mexico account holders pair services like AMC+, FOX One, and STARZ instead of buying each one on its own. It's the first time Roku has offered bundles through Premium Subscriptions, according to Deadline, and the company describes the new Roku streaming subscription bundles as covering "over 30 combinations" in the U.S., according to the Roku newsroom.
Deadline put the figure at 30 pairings, close to Roku's "over 30" wording but not an exact match. The published catalogs from Deadline and Android Police also don't line up perfectly with each other, as detailed below.
Each bundle is designed to cost less than paying for the included services separately, with Roku citing savings of up to 30% compared with signing up à la carte, according to Roku's blog post announcing the change. That figure is Roku's own maximum, not a confirmed rate for every pairing.
Bundles are live now inside the Subscriptions Destination, Streaming Store, and Premium Subscriptions Home for existing Roku accounts, purchasable from a remote or through therokuchannel.com, per the same Roku blog post. Anyone shopping the new Roku Premium Subscriptions bundles should check their own account's Subscriptions Destination, since none of the sources reviewed confirm that every listed combination shows up identically on every account.
What Roku streaming subscription bundles are available now?
Deadline and Android Police both grouped the pairings into five categories: Premium, Learn & Discover, Indie & Fan Favorites, Wholesome Picks, and International. That grouping comes from the reporting, not from an official Roku-published taxonomy, and the two reports produce different totals, so the list below combines the pairings they reported rather than presenting a confirmed Roku catalog.

Android Police also reported an HBO Max and Cinemax pairing that doesn't appear anywhere on Deadline's list, so treat that combination as reported rather than confirmed live. Neither outlet's catalog should be read as a complete or current storefront snapshot; the best way to confirm what's actually being offered today is checking a live Roku account.
Roku describes this as a customizable collection of Roku streaming service bundles, though the supplied materials don't explain whether that means users can build their own pairings or simply choose among the offered combinations, per the Roku blog. Until Roku clarifies, it's safer to treat the lineup as a set of pre-built pairings rather than an open mix-and-match system.
Roku's own $3-a-month library service, Howdy, appears in three reported pairings: Howdy + A&E Crime Central, Howdy + Hallmark+, and UP Faith & Family + Howdy, per Deadline. Deadline also reports Howdy launched in August 2025 and passed 1 million subscribers earlier this year.
How much you'll actually save
Roku's stated ceiling, savings of up to 30% compared with buying services individually, comes from its own announcement, according to the Roku newsroom. The supplied announcements give that maximum savings figure but don't break it down bundle by bundle, so 30% describes a ceiling across the catalog rather than a guaranteed rate for any single pairing.
The announcements reviewed for this story also leave several billing questions open: whether both services in a bundle need to be billed through Roku at standard rates for the comparison to hold, and how a promotional rate, annual plan, or third-party billing arrangement on an existing subscription might change the math. None of the materials address those scenarios directly, so they remain unanswered rather than ruled out.
Subscribers weighing a switch can check their own Subscriptions Destination to compare a bundle's listed price against what they're currently paying for each service. That in-account comparison, not the headline "up to 30%" figure, is the only way to see whether a specific pairing actually beats current costs.
Roku has also shared broader performance numbers tied to its overall Premium Subscriptions business, not to the new bundles specifically. The company says 76% of Premium Subscription sign-ups are incremental, meaning they wouldn't have happened as direct transactions with the streaming service itself, and that 98% of subscribers were new to the given service they signed up for, according to Deadline. Deadline also reports that subscription revenue climbed 30% year over year to $518.5 million. Those figures come from Roku itself, describe the platform's subscription business heading into this launch, and don't independently confirm that any particular bundle saves money for any particular subscriber.
Signing up and switching from a standalone plan
Bundles sit inside Roku's existing Premium Subscriptions surfaces rather than a separate storefront, and signing up doesn't require a new password or extra setup beyond an existing Roku login, according to Roku's blog.
Subscribers who already pay separately for an eligible standalone Premium Subscription, such as STARZ, Howdy, or FOX One, may be eligible to add another service through a bundle without being double-billed, Roku says in the same post. Once a bundle purchase goes through, Roku says it will automatically cancel the standalone subscription without requiring any extra step from the customer. The post doesn't spell out how trial periods, annual commitments, or existing promotional pricing carry over into that conversion, so those remain open questions worth checking against the account's renewal date after switching.
Bundles are also confirmed available to Roku accounts in Mexico, per the Roku newsroom and 9to5Google. The supplied sources don't include a Mexico-specific pairing list; the detailed catalogs from Deadline and Android Police are both framed as the U.S. lineup. Roku account holders in Mexico will need to check their own storefront to see which combinations and prices apply locally.
Also announced: Roku Labs
Roku also introduced Roku Labs on Sept. 17, a separate program giving users early access to experimental, in-development TV apps in exchange for feedback, according to Android Police. The initial lineup includes four experiments: Roku Stocks, Roku Weather, Backdrops Studio for custom TV artwork, and Roku Immerse for mood-based screensavers. Android Police describes Labs as rolling out in the U.S. now, while 9to5Google calls it available "soon," and neither report explains the gap.
Subscribers considering a switch to one of the new Roku streaming subscription bundles will need to compare the live bundle price with their current per-service costs inside their own Subscriptions Destination before converting anything. Given that Roku's "up to 30%" figure is a stated maximum and not a confirmed per-bundle rate, that in-account check is the most reliable step available right now.
