Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to add HBO to a Hulu subscription through Spotify. While Spotify does offer bundled packages like Spotify Premium Student which includes ad-supported Hulu and Showtime, HBO is not part of these offerings. If you want to get HBO on Hulu, you’ll need to subscribe directly through Hulu’s platform. This article explores the ins and outs of Spotify’s streaming bundles, how to add HBO to your Hulu account, what it costs, and whether there are any discounts available.

Why can’t I add HBO to Hulu with Spotify?

Spotify has been known for its innovative bundling offers, especially for students. The Spotify Premium Student bundle, for instance, is a compelling package that combines Spotify Premium, Hulu (ad-supported), and Showtime for a very competitive price. However, it’s essential to note that this bundle does not include HBO or any other add-ons. This limitation is not arbitrary but is based on the agreements Spotify has with its partners. If you’re keen on adding HBO to your Hulu subscription, you’ll have to do it directly through Hulu’s platform. This means that while you can enjoy the benefits of the Spotify bundle, HBO remains a separate entity that requires its own subscription.

Can I add HBO to Hulu with Spotify Premium?

Spotify Premium, in its standard form, doesn’t come bundled with Hulu or HBO. The special bundling of Hulu with Spotify is specifically for the student package, which also includes Showtime. However, even in this student bundle, HBO is not part of the package. If you’re a Spotify Premium user (outside of the student offer) and you want HBO on Hulu, you’ll need to add it directly through Hulu. It’s a straightforward process but does come with its own separate cost.

Does Spotify Premium Duo include Hulu?

As of the latest information available, Spotify Premium Duo, which is designed for two people living at the same address, does not include Hulu. It’s primarily focused on providing two Spotify Premium accounts at a discounted price. Any other services or bundles, like the inclusion of Hulu or Showtime, are separate and not part of the Duo offer.

How to add HBO to Hulu?

If you’re looking to dive into the vast content library of HBO through Hulu, here’s a step-by-step guide:

  1. Navigate to the official Hulu website.
  2. Sign in using your Hulu credentials.
  3. Once logged in, head over to the “Manage Subscription” section.
  4. Here, you’ll find various add-ons available for your account. Look for the “HBO” option.
  5. Click on “Add HBO.” A prompt will appear asking for confirmation.
  6. Confirm your purchase. Once done, HBO will be added to your Hulu subscription, and you can start enjoying its content immediately.

How much does it cost to add HBO to Hulu?

Adding HBO to Hulu comes with its own separate cost. As of the latest data, it’s priced at $14.99 per month. This gives you access to all of HBO’s original series, blockbuster movies, documentaries, and more, all within the Hulu platform.

Is there any way to get a discount on HBO on Hulu?

Everyone loves a good discount, and when it comes to streaming services, there are often bundles and offers that can save you some money. One such offer is through AT&T TV. They have a bundle that includes Hulu + Live TV, HBO Max, and Cinemax, all for a monthly fee of $64.99. This can be a great way to get more content for a reduced price, especially if you’re looking to expand your entertainment options.
