Customer FAQ’s

 Do I now have access to the Paramount+ app?

 No, the only part of your linear SHOWTIME subscription that is changing is the name and additional select content that will be made available through your Paramount + with SHOWTIME channel, On Demand, and through the Fios TV app.

What is the difference between Paramount Networks, Paramount+, and Paramount+ with SHOWTIME?

Paramount Networks is a traditional cable channel available through most TV service providers. It is best known for series such as Yellowstone.

Paramount+ is a stand-alone streaming service and does not require a subscription through a TV service provider. A subscription to Paramount+ is available through the Paramount+ website or Paramount+ app.

Paramount+ with SHOWTIME requires a subscription through Verizon and includes access to the linear Paramount+ with SHOWTIME channel, SHOWTIME multi-plex channels, TMC and Flix, as well as Paramount+ with SHOWTIME On Demand and through the Fios TV streaming app. A subscription to the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME channel through Verizon is separate from a subscription to the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan through Paramount+, where programming will differ.

I heard SHOWTIME will be rebranded. What exactly does that mean? And what's the benefit to me?

Yes, you heard correctly. As of this January, the SHOWTIME premium channel will become Paramount+ with SHOWTIME! In addition to the award-winning SHOWTIME programming you've been accustomed to, the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME channel will also air select Paramount+ programming. SHOWTIME has automatically become Paramount+ with SHOWTIME, so there's nothing you need to do.

What is the difference between Paramount + with SHOWTIME through Verizon and the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan through the Paramount+ app?

A subscription to the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME channel through Verizon includes access to the linear Paramount+ with SHOWTIME channel, SHOWTIME multi-plex channels, TMC and Flix, as well as Paramount+ with SHOWTIME On Demand and through the Fios TV streaming app. The rebrand of SHOWTIME to Paramount+ with SHOWTIME through Verizon is great news for subscribers! In addition to all the award-winning SHOWTIME programming you’ve been accustomed to, you’ll also have access to select Paramount+ original programs and movies – all at no additional cost. A subscription to the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME channel through Verizon is separate from a subscription to the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan through Paramount+, where programming will differ.
