HBO Max is now available as a Prime Video add-on subscription in Australia, giving local viewers access to a broad library of Warner Bros. Discovery content from $11.99/month.
Available from today, the HBO Max add-on is priced at $11.99/month for the Basic with Ads plan, or $15.99/month for the Standard tier. It includes content from brands such as HBO, Warner Bros., DC, Discovery, and franchises including Harry Potter and The Big Bang Theory, all accessible within the Prime Video app.
The partnership extends HBO Max’s reach in Australia, following its local launch in April. It also supports Prime Video’s push to consolidate premium entertainment offerings in a single interface, across thousands of supported devices.
With the addition of HBO Max, Prime Video now offers 27 add-on video subscriptions. Other video services include: Paramount+, Apple TV+, Britbox, MGM+, Hayu, Lionsgate+, and beIN SPORTS.
Users with the add-on subscription can manage billing on a single platform and access video from their subscribed services all through the one interface. Similar functionality is available via competitor platforms Apple TV and Foxtel’s Hubbl, with Prime Video leading in the number of paid-subscription partners.
Shows now available to subscribers include HBO hits like The Last of Us, The White Lotus, House of the Dragon, and upcoming titles such as IT: Welcome to Derry, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, and Task. The library also includes Max Originals like And Just Like That…, The Pitt, and Peacemaker, alongside legacy favourites such as Friends and Rick and Morty.
Daniel Slepak, Head of Marketplace, Prime Video Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, said: “We’re thrilled to welcome HBO Max to Prime Video as our 27th add-on subscription partner in Australia, growing our stellar entertainment catalogue and giving our customers an even greater selection of world-class series and blockbuster movies, all in one app experience.”
Michael Brooks, Managing Director, Warner Bros. Discovery Australia and New Zealand, added: “After a successful launch only five months ago, our stellar library of global brands and premium content continues to resonate in this market, and this partnership with Prime Video allows us to bring that offering to even more Australians.”
