What Are Passes by Sling?
On Tuesday, Sling began offering day, week and weekend passes to allow you to stream cable for a limited time. With any of the three passes, you can watch your favorite programming — including college football games, awards shows and marathons of your favorite TV series — for a one-time fee. The passes grant Sling users more flexibility to watch what they want, when they want it, and all without a contract or commitment.
"This launch is about putting control back in the hands of the fans, whether it's tuning in for college football, professional sports, award shows or a spontaneous movie night, all without having to sign a long-term, binding contract," Sling product and operations SVP Seth Van Sickel said in a press release. "With college football just around the corner, our new Day Pass offering is all consumers need to win on game day, for just $4.99."
