Testing YouTube Premium for free: How it works

YouTube Premium has started in Germany and wants to attract more users. To this end, as with all streaming platforms, there is a free trial period. We explain how you can use it.

In the free trial phase of YouTube Premium, all features are available to you.

Millions of well-known songs and self-produced movies and series under one roof: YouTube wants to conquer the market with this combination. The free trial period is intended to make the offer palatable.

How to test YouTube Premium for free

The situation for YouTube Premium looks like this, if you want to test for free:

• Interested parties can test YouTube Premium for free for one month. Registration is possible here.
• As befits proper trial periods, all features are included in full.
• But beware: If you are mainly interested in music streaming, you can test YouTube Music Premium separately for free. However, this is included in YouTube Premium anyway, but the individual subscription to the service is slightly cheaper after the test phase.

So the free trial for the complete package is only worth it if you are also interested in the movies and series from YouTube Originals. There, the offer is so far rather manageable, but the rate is increasing continuously.In addition, however, another tip: Only last June, there was also the premium trial phase for three months for free, as reported by the well-known deal platforms. It is quite possible that there could be such an offer again in the future. A little patience would therefore be worthwhile in this case.
