Below, we detail the access to OCS services, the catalog, the subscription prices but also the program and channels of the different OCS channels.
Whether you are interested in films or series available on OCS, it is very easy to subscribe to one of its offers. The simplest method is probably to subscribe to OCS via its website. Then simply choose the offer that interests you the most (see below for prices and differences in the subscription) and then register by filling in your details. Note that it is also possible to subscribe to OCS directly via your TV box or to obtain it by subscribing to a thematic Ciné/Série TV package, these are often offered by your internet and TV service providers. If you are an Amazon Prime Video user, you can also subscribe to OCS directly through the Prime Video service as part of the Amazon Channels.
Subscribe to OCS through Amazon Prime Video
Like some of its competitors, OCS offers a free trial offer to its platform to allow interested parties to test the experience before subscribing. Previously lasting one month, the free trial is now 7 days to test the features and content available on OCS. To do this, simply select one of the two trial offers available (the handling is the same as for subscribe to OCS). At the end of the 7 days, if you are not satisfied with the service, you must then cancel to avoid that the price of the monthly subscription is paid in tacit renewal.
From August 16, 2022, OCS offers will increase their prices following the increase in the VAT rate imposed by the tax authorities. In fact, the two main offers of OCS see their price increase by 1€ per month. As a reminder, several formulas are available for subscribe to the OCS offer. The first and cheapest is available online and allows you to subscribe to OCS without obligation to take advantage of OCS and OCS on demand on a computer, tablet or telephone with up to two screens simultaneously. It will cost you €10.99 per month. The second offer allows you to take advantage of the application on television as well as on computer, tablet and telephone to 12.99€ per month without commitment and up to three screens simultaneously. These two offers benefit from a 7-day free trial (be careful, the renewal is tacit. Cancel the subscription if you only want to take advantage of the trial week).
What are the differences between the two OCS subscriptions?
OCS offers two main subscription offers. Their major difference is of course their price: one is offered at €10.99 per month and the other at €12.99 per month. Be aware that there is no difference in content between these two offers. Both are also without commitment of duration. On the other hand, the cheapest offer only offers access to OCS via smartphone, tablet and computer as well as 2 screens for simultaneous viewing. The second offer, two euros more expensive therefore, offers 3 screens for simultaneous viewing on smartphone, tablet and computer but also on television using a Chromecast type device and the OCS application.
