We’ve all seen it by now. The company behind Frozen and Mickey Mouse offers a streaming service bundle. The Disney Bundle saves you money compared to paying for Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ separately. You may wonder, though how to get the Disney bundle without ESPN+?
For a long time this was not possible. Earlier this year in 2022, however, Disney quietly introduced an option to bundle Disney+ with Hulu. If you weren’t aware of this option, you aren’t alone. It isn’t mentioned in their marketing or advertisements.
This blog post will explain, step by step, how to get the Disney Bundle without ESPN+.

The First Thing to Know- How to Get the Disney Bundle Without ESPN+

For this bundling method to work you will need a Hulu subscription that is billed directly through Hulu- not Apple, Amazon, Roku, Verizon, or any other third party.
There are several ways to sign up for Hulu through third parties. For example, if you download the Hulu app to an iPhone you can subscribe to Hulu directly in the app. This will bill you through Apple’s App Store and not Hulu directly.
To make sure your billing goes through Hulu, make sure to sign up on Hulu’s website using a web browser. If you already have a Hulu account that is not billed by Hulu, you will need to cancel the subscription and sign back up on Hulu’s website.
If you are unsure if your account is Hulu-billed, go to Account> Payment Information on Hulu’s website to check.
How Much Will You Save?
By itself, the Hulu (Ad-supported) plan is $6.99/mo. after a 30 day free trial. The Hulu (Ad-free) plan is $12.99/mo. after the 30 day free trial. Meanwhile, Disney+ is normally $7.99/mo.
With the new bundling option, however, you can include Disney+ as an “add-on” to a Hulu account.
This new option takes the cost of Disney+ down from $7.99/mo. to $2.99/mo. So the new bundle without ESPN+ is the equivalent of $9.98/mo. or $15.98/mo, depending on which Hulu plan you choose.
The regular Disney Bundle that includes ESPN+ is either $13.99/mo. (for Hulu with ads) or $19.99/mo. (for Hulu with no ads). By not including ESPN+, you save $4 per month.
Savings Alert!
