Peacock currently offers a student discount at $2.99/month for 12 months, down from the standard $10.99/month for Peacock Premium (ad-supported tier).
Here’s the latest on the Peacock student discount as of August 2025:
How to Get the Discount
Go to the Peacock Student Discount Page:
- Visit
peacocktv.com/student.

Verify Student Status:
- You’ll be redirected to SheerID, a third-party service, to verify your student status. This process requires you to provide personal details like your name, school email address, and date of birth.
Receive a Promo Code:
- Once your student status is successfully verified, you will be given a unique promo code.
Redeem the Code:
- You can then use this code to sign up for a new Peacock account or apply it to an existing account on the “Plans & Payments” page.
Who’s eligible?
Must be 18 years or older.
Must be enrolled in an undergraduate or advanced degree program at a Title IV-accredited U.S. college or university.
Must reside in the U.S. or its territories.
Verification handled through SheerID, followed by receiving a unique promo code to apply to a new or existing account.
Important terms:
The promo code must be redeemed within 30 days of successful verification.
After the 12-month period ends, your subscription automatically renews at the then-current retail price (usually $10.99/month) unless canceled.
Annual re-verification is required to continue the discount beyond the first year.

Some Notes from User Experiences
Some users report difficulty reactivating the student discount or encountering verification errors such as “Verification Limit Exceeded.” Occasionally, live chat with Peacock customer service helped users re-up the code.
Others note that the discount might not be applicable if their subscription is billed through a third party (e.g., Apple), which may require canceling and signing up directly through Peacock to use the promo code.
There are anecdotes of users being offered only $4.99/month instead of the $2.99 student rate—likely due to a technical glitch or incorrect link—for which support escalation was necessary.
