When the streaming service subscriptions begin to stack up, it isn't a good look on your bank account, which is why it's better to take advantage of a handy student discount. With Max's student discount deal, you can save 50% on a subscription to one of the best streaming services and pay $4.99 a month instead of $9.99.

If you're a regular TechRadar reader, you'll know that Max is one of our favorites because of its extensive library of movies and shows including hits such as The Last of Us, The White Lotus, and Big Little Lies – three of the best Max shows.

You should note that Max's student discount offer is available for its basic with-ads plan, and to US-based students only. To have access to this deal, you'll need to have a student email address which you'll have to verify with a UNiDAYS account. So if you're currently a student and have all the relevant credentials, you're one step closer to securing a great streaming deal.
