30 DAYS FREE: Sign up to Amazon Prime Video's free trial today
Originally launching as STARZPLAY before changing its name in 2022, Lionsgate Plus is a more direct way to keep up with STARZ content and more.
STARZ is an American premium cable and satellite television network, offering a broad range of blockbuster movies and original series. Launched in 1994, the network produces popular TV shows like Outlander, Power, American Gods, P-Valley and more.
The pay TV channel isn't available in Australia, but the network did license plenty of shows Down Under in recent years, a lot of them currently available on local streaming service Stan.
How much does Lionsgate Plus cost in Australia?
Lionsgate Plus isn't available as a standalone service – you can only subscribe to it as an add-on to Prime Video as part of their Prime Video Channels. It costs $3.99 a month. This is on top of a regular Prime Video subscription.
Prime Video is free with Amazon Prime, which offers extra perks such as free shipping, access to exclusive deals and more. New users get a 30-day free trial. After that, subscriptions to Amazon Prime cost $9.99 a month.
Add it up and your total monthly cost of Prime Video with Lionsgate Plus would be $13.98. But if you only want 7 days, you could technically get it for free. Just remember to cancel!
Does Lionsgate Plus have a free trial?
Yes, Lionsgate Plus offers a free 7-day trial for new customers.
That means you can add it to your Prime Video subscription and enjoy everything the platform has to offer without paying anything for a week. There are no contracts, so you can cancel anytime.

At the time of writing, popular STARZ series like Outlander or Heels aren't available on the platform due to current licensing deals.

Lionsgate Plus features and devices
The upside of adding Lionsgate Plus to your Prime Video subscription – or any channel, for that matter – is that you access all the content via the Prime Video app. You don't need to switch between apps and you have all your shows and movies in one place.
Even better, you can enjoy all the usual Prime Video features and you can watch on any device compatible with the service. The list is extensive and includes everything from mobile devices to streaming media devices, game consoles and smart TVs.
Prime Video supports multiple profiles, offline viewing and watch parties. It also offers closed captions and parental controls.
Is there any other way of accessing Lionsgate Plus?
As we've already mentioned, Lionsgate Plus isn't available as a standalone service, so getting the Prime Video add-on is the only way to access the platform for now.
However, some STARZ original series are streaming on other Australian services. It ultimately comes down to what you want to watch. Check out our watch TV shows online page and look up your favourites.
