The 6-month IPTV plan: October to April on one payment
Six months covers the hockey season from the first puck drop to the start of the playoffs, or the whole NFL season through the Super Bowl, for $49.99 on one screen. That is about $8.33 a month, within a couple of dollars of the yearly rate, without the full-year commitment.

6-Month plan: 1, 2 or 3 devices
Each card goes straight to secure checkout with this plan pre-selected. The number is how many screens can stream at the same time; install the app on as many devices as you like.
The 6-month plan is for people who know they will use the service all winter but are not ready to pay for a year they cannot picture yet. Bought in October it runs through the NHL regular season, the World Junior Championship over the holidays, the Super Bowl and the trade deadline. Bought in April it covers the playoffs, the Blue Jays\x27 entire summer and the start of the CFL season. Either way, one payment and no thought about renewals for half a year.
Financially it sits very close to the annual rate: on one screen the difference works out to under $2 a month. So the honest comparison is not "6 months versus 12 months" but "am I sure enough to commit to twelve?" If yes, take the year and save the rest. If not, six months costs you almost nothing for keeping the option open.

6-Month plan questions
Is the 6-month plan much cheaper than 12 months per month?
No, and that is the point: on one device the 6-month plan is about $8.33 a month against $6.67 on the yearly plan. You pay slightly more per month for a shorter commitment.
Which season does six months cover?
Bought in early October, the whole NHL regular season and the entire NFL season including the Super Bowl. Bought in April, the NHL playoffs, the full MLB summer and the start of the CFL season.
Does the 6-month plan renew on its own?
No. Like every Vio plan it is prepaid and ends after its term, with a reminder sent beforehand.
Can I pause the plan for a holiday?
Plans run continuously for their term and cannot be paused, but your login works anywhere in Canada and abroad on a normal connection, so most people simply keep watching from wherever they are.
Does the money-back guarantee apply?
Yes. The 7-day money-back guarantee in our refund policy applies to the 6-month plan like any other paid plan.
