BET+ is the official streaming home for everything BET. While it’s less of a well-known platform, you could compare it to what Paramount Plus does for CBS, or what Peacock does for NBC.
It’s the best place to watch all of your favorite BET content on demand, on your time, whenever you want to watch. And if that’s not enough, the platform also features a surprising amount of original content you may not have heard about. Some of these shows have been promoted on BET’s flagship channel, so you may have seen “Divorced Sistas,” the spinoff of megahit “Sistas,” on TV already.

But other shows, like “All the Queen’s Men,” a crime thriller about the powerful woman at the head of a male exotic dance club in Atlanta, are hidden gems you might not know about yet.
There’s also the other “Sistas” spinoff series, “Zatima,” which is a comedy-drama about Zac and Fatima from the main series. The show focuses on the growth of their relationship, but also how new friends and their own past choices might complicate everything they’re building together.
Here’s everything you need to know about the best place to sign up for BET+.
Where can I sign up for BET+?
The best way to grab a BET+ subscription is to bundle it with a live TV streaming service. While there are a few options, if you’re looking for the cheapest, easiest way to sign up for the service, Sling TV is your best choice.
Sling is all about customization. The base packages are Sling Orange, which prioritizes sports, or Sling Blue, which prioritizes the news and is a little better for network TV in general. Of course, you can also bundle the two together to make Sling Blue + Orange. Any of these three options can be bundled with BET+.
Each package is also half price for your first month after you sign up.
| Package | Price | Can I add BET+? |
|---|---|---|
| Orange | $23 first month, then $46/month | Yes! |
| Blue | $25.50 first month, then $50/month | Yes! |
| Both | $33 first month, then $66/month | Yes! |
When you add BET+ to your chosen Sling package, you can get a 7 day free trial, but this only applies to BET+, not to Sling overall. After that, the service costs $10.99 per month.
The best alternative to bundling BET+ with Sling is to do so with DIRECTV, which offers a free trial and one of the most expansive selections of channels of any live TV streaming service. However, the platform is $84.99 per month after that free trial concludes.
