Find out how much Funimation will cost you
If you enjoy anime, you might have heard of Funimation. It’s one of the most popular anime streaming services out there, but how much does it cost and what plans do they offer? I’m going to list their current prices and all the cool stuff they have to offer so you can get the best plan and save money on anime!
Which Plan is Best For You?
The first step in the plan is to answer a few questions that will help us determine which plan is best for you. These questions include: How many screens do you want? What type of device would you like to use? Do I want on-demand, DVDs, or both? Which countries are included in my plan?
The answers to these questions will help us find which option is best for your needs. For example, if you live in the U.S., Canada, and Japan and want on-demand and DVDs then the Plus Plan ($8.99) is for you because it includes all three services at that price point.
What Does A Subscription Get You?
A subscription to Funimation gets you access to all of the anime shows and movies on their website. This includes simulcasting, which means they have them up as soon as they are available in Japan. Plus, subscribers get a 30% discount on all DVD’s, Blu-rays, manga and other merchandise. If you are looking for an anime site with a variety of content then this is it!
Family Plans
There are two family plans for Funimation memberships. One is a paid plan and the other is a free plan. The paid plan is $4.95 per month and allows up to four people in your family to watch, while the free plan limits you to one member of your family who can only watch when they are home on the same wifi network as their computer (or tablet).
Funimation App
The Funimation app is free to download from the Google Play store. The app has a free trial option which allows users to stream episodes for free, with ads, for a 30 day period. After that, there are three subscription plans available: $4.99 per month for the basic plan, $59.99 per year for the premium plan and $69.99 per year for the VIP plan with exclusive content and ad-free streaming.
Hidden Costs
You may think that the only fee associated with a Funimation subscription is the monthly or yearly membership, but there are other hidden costs that have to be taken into account when deciding whether or not to sign up. For starters, the site operates in US Dollars (USD), which means you’ll need an American credit card to purchase a subscription. You can find one of these cards at any major bank and it’s easy to set up as long as your bank gives you a physical card. If they don’t, then they likely offer virtual cards which are just as good. These cards typically come with a 3-5% currency conversion fee every time they’re used so it pays off to shop around for your best deal.
How To Cancel Or Cancel Trial
If you’re looking to cancel your trial membership, head over to the Settings page in the app or website and toggle the Trial Membership button. Then just follow the instructions that pop up. If you have any questions about cancelling your membership, please contact customer support by tapping Chat Now at the bottom of any screen on our site or in our app. Our team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so don’t hesitate to reach out!
What If I Have Problems With My Subscription?
Funimation may be a great service for many people, but the subscriptions are not without their problems. For one thing, if you cancel your subscription, they will continue to bill your account with a $6.95 monthly fee until they have received all of the money owed to them. If you have any issues with your billing and want to speak to someone about it, then give their customer service line a call at 1-800-859-0747. You can also find more information on their website by clicking on the Contact Us button in the bottom right corner of their homepage.
