Overview

  • The Premium tier will rise by €1 to €9.99, while the ad-free option will cost €12.99 and will no longer include Deezer.
  • Music access moves to a new “RTL+ Musik” plan priced at €14.99, and the “Max” label is expected to be retired to avoid confusion with the incoming HBO Max service.
  • The entry-level Basis package remains €5.99 with a reduced offering, and live streams as well as sports will be limited to higher tiers.
  • RTL says the changes will take effect in mid-January, with the exact calendar date still to be announced.
  • The restructuring follows plans to cut about 600 jobs and comes as the service reports more than six million customers on its path to profitability by the end of 2026.
