For whom is it interesting to subscribe to the UOL Play streaming?

A few years ago, Netflix reigned as one of the only subscription streaming services on the market. But there are currently a wide variety of similar platforms, which offer a vast catalog for those who don’t know what to watch.

One of the newest participants in this ecosystem is UOL Play, which in addition to offering movies and series, has live or on-demand shows and sports to watch whenever you want.

Launched in April 2020, the platform has been making efforts to attract even more consumers, and in this article, we want to introduce it and show you what kind of audience the subscription can be interesting for. Check out:

What is UOL Play?

The streaming service of the UOL group, launched in partnership with Watch Brasil, is very similar to market alternatives, such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. For those who are familiar with the streaming routine, browsing UOL Play will be very easy.

However, the platform has an important differential. In addition to offering movies, series, sports and shows, UOL Play also gives access to several live cable TV channels. Therefore, the service is like the combination of a streaming platform with the closed TV that we are used to contracting with an operator.

How UOL Play works

Two plans are available in this UOL group subscription service.Source: UOL Play

Currently, there are two options for subscription plans: the Light option, the simplest of all, gives access to on-demand content (films, series, shows and sports) and some channels of the partnership with UOL Play. The promise is that this selection will expand over time, offering more and more options to subscribers of this plan.

The Cinema + HBO Max option is the most complete, and gives you access to the same benefits as the Light plan and also a wide variety of live channels. This category includes pay-TV content, such as:

• Warner TV
• AXN
• Sony Channel
• History Channel
• Comedy Central
• A&E
• AND!
• Paramount Network
• MTV
• lifetime
• Nickelodeon

As the name implies, this second subscription option also gives free access to HBO Max for a month, but the platform must be accessed separately and is not integrated into the UOL Play interface.

How much does UOL Play cost?

Plans cost BRL 24.90 or BRL 69.90 per monthSource: UOL Play

The UOL Play plans have very competitive prices when we compare the service with competitors and the cable TV options available in the market.

Light Plan – BRL 24.90 per month

• 4 profiles
• 4 screens at the same time (which includes TVs, tablets, smartphones and other devices)

Cinema + HBO Max Plan – BRL 69.90 per month

• 4 profiles
• 4 screens at the same time
• HBO Max for 1 month

In the second plan option, after the 1-month trial period of HBO Max, the amount of R$ 39.90 per month will be automatically added to the monthly subscription fee. However, the consumer can choose not to stay with HBO Max, paying only the Cinema Plan of UOL Play and its live and on-demand content.

movie rental

It is also possible to rent movies through UOL Play subscription plans. One of the great differentials of this modality is the availability of productions that have just been released in the cinema, bringing an air of novelty to the platform.

At the moment, the list of available movies is not very large, but the promise is that the platform will expand the catalog to more options over time. The films “Elvis” (released in July 2022) and “Fantastic Beasts: Dumbledore’s Secrets” (released in April 2022) are now available, for example.

UOL Play free for 7 days

For those interested, you can try the service for free (on-demand and live) for 7 days. The tasting period is an excellent option for those who are in doubt and want to know the platform.
