Google Offers 50% Off YouTube Premium for a Year with Google One: Here’s How to Get It

Google is offering a compelling deal for those interested in YouTube Premium and Google One. Right now, new and existing users who subscribe to the 2TB Google One Premium plan can get 50% off YouTube Premium for a full year. This offer arrives shortly after YouTube raised its Premium subscription prices in the U.S. from $13.99 to $15.99 per month. It presents a solid opportunity to lock in ad-free streaming at a significantly reduced cost, especially as the deal is only available until April 29, 2026.

Step-by-Step: How to Claim the Offer

1. Check Your Eligibility: Ensure you are a subscriber to the Google One Premium 2TB plan (or higher). The offer is not available for lower-tier plans like 100GB or 200GB. You must also reside in one of the six supported countries.

2. Cancel Existing YouTube Premium: If you are a current YouTube Premium subscriber, you must cancel your existing subscription first. You can then resubscribe through the Google One website to redeem the discount.

3. Go to the Offer Page: Navigate to the Google One website (one.google.com) and find the YouTube Premium benefit card. You can also directly visit the YouTube Premium add-on page.

4. Subscribe: Follow the prompts to add the discounted YouTube Premium subscription to your Google One plan. You can choose to pay monthly or annually.

What You Get

Google One Premium (2TB Plan)

• Price: $9.99 per month (with a trial available).

• Storage: 2TB of cloud storage shared across Google Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos.

• AI Features: Access to the Gemini app with 3.1 Pro, “limited access” to Veo 3.1, and 200 AI credits every month.

• Other Perks: 10% Google Store credits and premium Google Workspace features.

YouTube Premium (50% Off)

• Discounted Price: Approximately $8 per month, down from the standard $15.99 monthly rate in the U.S.. The annual plan is reduced from $159.99 to $80.

• Features: Ad-free videos, background playback, offline downloads, and access to YouTube Music.

• Note: This offer is for the Individual YouTube Premium plan and cannot be shared with family members.

What Happens After 12 Months?

Once the 12-month promotional period ends, your subscription will auto-renew as a bundled Google One + YouTube Premium plan. At that point, the combined cost will be $21.98 per month, which still represents a savings of about 25% compared to paying for both services separately.

Final Take

This is a strategic move by Google to bundle its services, but for users already invested in the Google ecosystem, it’s a legitimate way to save money. With YouTube’s recent price hikes, locking in a 50% discount for a full year makes this a very attractive deal for eligible customers.
