If your cable provider is on this list, all you need to do is download the HBO Max app on a smart phone, tablet, or third-party streaming device. You will be prompted to sign in through your cable or digital media provider before you will be able to start streaming. You can also log in directly at HBOMax.com using your cable credentials.

How to get HBO Max through your digital media provider

There are a handful of digital media providers who offer access to HBO Max by adding the $15/month subscription to your existing streaming plan. That way, you don’t have to sign up for a separate subscription with HBO. These platforms are Apple TV Channels, Prime Video Channels, and Hulu.

If you were already subscribed to HBO through Apple TV Channels prior to the launch of HBO Max, you can download HBO Max and access all the content at no additional charge via your Apple ID account. However, if you are a brand new HBO Max subscriber, you will need to use Apple In-App Purchase to subscribe within the HBO Max application.

Users who already have an Amazon Prime membership can access HBO Max by adding the $15/month fee to their existing Prime membership. Once you add HBO on Prime Video Channels to your subscription, you can stream all of the HBO content you choose.

Similarly, Hulu with Live TV subscribers can pay an additional $15/month for the platform’s HBO Max Add-on, which gives you access to HBO Max originals and exclusives via the HBO Max app. It also gives you access to classic HBO content you know and love on the Hulu app.

How to get HBO Max through your mobile provider

While HBO’s $15/month subscription fee makes it one of the most expensive streaming services, AT&T is currently offering the service for free as part of its AT&T Unlimited Plan. That plan costs $85/per month for one line and also includes HD streaming, 30GB of mobile hotspot data per month and Advanced Mobile Security protection through AT&T.

HBO Max is also included with a handful of AT&T plans that are no longer available to new subscribers. If you’ve been grandfathered in on one of the following plans, you can still take advantage of the HBO Max streaming promotion.

  • AT&T Unlimited Plus
  • AT&T Unlimited Plus Enhanced
  • AT&T Unlimited Choice
  • AT&T Unlimited Choice II
  • AT&T Unlimited Choice Enhanced
  • AT&T Unlimited & More Premium

The right HBO Max plan for you

If your current cable or mobile provider doesn’t offer HBO Max as part of its service, you can change to a provider who does — or sign-up directly through HBO. And while AT&T is the only mobile provider currently offering an HBO Max promotion, it’s possible that others will offer similar bundles in the future.
