This exclusive perk gives you access to premium content, including Disney+ originals, IPL matches, HBO shows, and more—all without spending extra.
In this guide, I’ll walk you through exactly how to claim your free Hotstar Premium subscription with Jio, what benefits you get, and some troubleshooting tips in case you run into issues. Let’s dive in!
Who is Eligible for Jio Hotstar Free Premium?
Before we begin, check if you qualify:
✅ You must be a Jio postpaid or prepaid subscriber.
✅ Your Jio plan should be ₹399 or above (some lower plans may also offer Hotstar Mobile, but Premium requires higher recharges).
✅ The offer is usually valid for new and existing Jio users, but terms may change.
If you meet these conditions, follow the steps below to activate your free subscription.
Step-by-Step Guide to Activate Free Hotstar Premium with Jio
Step 1: Check Your Jio Plan
First, ensure your Jio recharge plan includes Hotstar Premium:
- Open the MyJio app or check your SMS for recharge confirmation.
- Popular eligible plans:
- ₹399 (1 month free)
- ₹599 (3 months free)
- ₹899 (6 months free)
- Yearly plans (12 months free)
If you’re unsure, dial *#121# or check the Jio website.
Step 2: Link Your Jio Number to Hotstar
If your plan includes Hotstar Premium, follow these steps to activate it:
- Open the Disney+ Hotstar app (download it from the App Store/Play Store if you don’t have it).
- Tap “Subscribe” and select “Jio” as your provider.
- Enter your Jio mobile number and verify via OTP.
- Once linked, your Hotstar Premium subscription will activate automatically.
(Note: If you already have a Hotstar account, log in with the same number linked to Jio.)
Step 3: Enjoy Hotstar Premium for Free!
Once activated, you’ll get:
🎬 Ad-free streaming of movies & shows
⚽ Live sports (IPL, football, F1, etc.) in HD
📺 Access to HBO, Disney+, and Star content
📱 Watch on up to 2 devices (mobile + TV)
Your subscription will last as long as your Jio plan is active. Once it expires, you’ll need to recharge again to continue.
Troubleshooting: What If It Doesn’t Work?
If you face issues, try these fixes:
🔹 Restart the Hotstar app after linking your Jio number.
🔹 Clear Hotstar app cache (Settings > Apps > Hotstar > Clear Cache).
🔹 Check Jio’s official offer page (Jio.com/offers) for updates.
🔹 Contact Jio/Hotstar support if the OTP fails or the subscription doesn’t activate.
Alternative: Hotstar Mobile (For Lower Jio Plans)
If your Jio recharge is below ₹399, you might still get Hotstar Mobile (free but with ads and no TV access). To check:
- Open MyJio App > “Offers & Benefits.”
- Look for “Disney+ Hotstar Mobile” under free subscriptions.
Getting Hotstar Premium for free with Jio is a fantastic deal for binge-watchers and sports fans. Just ensure your Jio plan qualifies, link your number, and start streaming!
