The standalone streaming service is currently exclusive to the US. However, there are multiple ways to watch MGM content in the UK and other countries abroad. Here is everything you need to know – we also have similar guides for The Criterion Channel and CWTV. MGM costs an additional £4.49 per month, but new users get a seven-day free trial. Add that on top of the Prime 30-day free trial, and you should be able to sign up without paying a penny, providing you cancel before the trials expire.
How to sign up for MGM+ outside of the US
We have managed to sign up for the standalone streaming platform MGM+ from outside the US by using a VPN. Using a VPN allows you to connect to a server that makes you appear as if you’re based in another country. This means that you can access sites that are geo-blocked in other countries, such as MGM+. There are several VPNs to choose from, but we used NordVPN to sign up for an account and encountered no issues. This is usually our number one VPN of choice due to its reliable performance, number of servers and competitive pricing. You can see other VPN options in our chart of the best VPNs for streaming. MGM+ costs either $5.99 per month or $49.99 per year, but new users can get a seven-day free trial on the monthly plan, so you will only pay for the VPN (if you don’t already have one), as well as a $1 confirmation cost when you create your account. Here is how you can sign up for MGM+ with the help of a VPN: Using a VPN to stream from another country is against MGM+’s terms of service, so the platform could in theory cancel your account.
