Why isn't my promo code applying?

The most common reasons: the cart's minimum spend isn't met, an excluded product category, a code restricted to new customers, or a code that's simply expired. Every article above details that store's specific exclusions.

Is a promo code found on a third-party site trustworthy?

It depends entirely on the source and the date. Always prefer codes sent directly by the brand (email, app, official social media) over one copied with no date from an unknown site — see our scam-proof guide for the full method.

Is the code shown here still valid today?

We show a last-verified date on every article, but brands can pull an offer at any time without telling us. If a code has expired, let us know via the Contact page — we update the article quickly.

Free Disney+ and Prime Video: One Service Actually Kept Its Trial, the Other Didn't

Lumping Disney+ and Prime Video together in the same "free streaming trial" guide is the most common mistake on this topic, and it's a dated one: these two services have taken opposite paths since 2021, which makes a good chunk of articles still online today simply out of date.

Disney+: the free trial was removed, not paused

Disney removed its free trial in nearly every market by late 2021, and the platform has never reintroduced an equivalent since, despite what some misleadingly titled sites suggest. Any page claiming today "free Disney+ trial, 7 days" describes an offer that has not existed for several years.

What's actually still available with Disney+

Carrier or bundle offers: some mobile carriers include Disney+ in premium plans, depending on the country — check directly with the carrier, never through a "free codes" site.
Occasional promotional pricing: Disney occasionally publishes temporary discounted rates (never a full free trial) directly visible on disneyplus.com at signup.
Household profile sharing: Disney+ allows multiple profiles on one subscription depending on the plan, but actively monitors sharing across separate households.

Amazon Prime Video: the free trial is still there, through Amazon Prime

Unlike Disney+, Amazon offers a 30-day free trial of Amazon Prime membership (Prime Video included, along with fast shipping and other Prime perks), for new members who have never subscribed to Prime before. It's a genuine, functioning free trial today, verifiable directly on amazon.com or the local equivalent — not an expired promise.

What to check before starting the Prime trial

Amazon requires a card at signup for the trial and automatically charges the standard Prime rate if the subscription isn't canceled before the 30-day deadline — note the exact date, cancellation is easy from account settings but only if you remember in time.

Bundled offers worth checking

Some regions have seen temporary bundle promotions combining Disney+, Hulu, and other services at a reduced combined price — genuine offers, but always time-limited and region-specific, so the only reliable way to confirm one is currently running is checking disneyplus.com directly rather than a third-party aggregator.

Why so many sites still confuse the two

Many articles published before 2021 were never updated after Disney+'s free trial was removed, and some newer sites simply copy those old articles without checking the information at the source. The only reliable check remains visiting disneyplus.com directly (to confirm there's no trial) or amazon.com (to confirm the Prime trial is still active).

The ad-supported tier: a way to cut the bill

In recent years, both Disney+ and Prime Video have introduced a cheaper ad-supported tier as an alternative to the standard ad-free subscription. It isn't free, but it's a genuine option to durably reduce the monthly bill if ad breaks don't bother you — worth comparing directly on each platform, since pricing changes regularly.

In summary

Disney+ and Prime Video no longer have much in common on this specific point: the former permanently closed the free-trial chapter in 2021, while the latter still offers a genuine one through Prime membership. A site still presenting both on equal footing probably hasn't updated its content in years.
