What’s the difference between Basic and Premium on Kayo?
When you sign up for Kayo, there are two subscription options that you can choose from – Basic and Premium. They both give you exactly the same great quality and quantity of content, including HD and all the features. The only difference in the subscription is the number of devices that can stream at one time, where Basic is up to 2 devices (streams); and Premium allows you up to 3 devices (streams).
How can I use more devices on Kayo?
You can mix and match the devices you use with your Kayo subscription, however, remember you can only stream on 2 or 3 of them at the same time, depending if you have our Basic or Premium subscription.
What about SplitView?
When you’re using the SplitView feature, the good news is, it only counts as 1 stream on the one device – no matter if it’s 2, 3 or 4 different videos at the same time.
Check out the table below for exactly what you get on each package:
| Basic | Premium | |
| Monthly subscription | $25/mth | $35/mth |
| Simultaneous streams | 2 | 3 |
| 14 day free trial | Yes | Yes |
| HD available on compatible devices | Yes | Yes |
