The cheapest way to watch the Premier League in Taiwan: four platforms, four prices, worked out

The cheapest plan is not the one with the lowest monthly fee. It depends on how many matches you actually watch.

Platform A · monthly
NT$ 299
Platform B · monthly
NT$ 450
Platform C · per match
NT$ 90
Platform D · annual, billed monthly
NT$ 219
Best at 4 matches/month
Platform C
Best at 10+ matches
Platform D

Four platforms carry part of the season and none of them carries all of it. So the question is not which is best, it is which one has your club.

We ran the numbers for three viewing habits: only your own club (about 4 matches a month), every weekend match (about 10), and never miss one (about 38).

Three answers

Four a month: pay per match, NT$ 360, cheaper than any subscription. That assumes you can live with the occasional match not being on that platform.

Ten a month: the annual plan billed monthly wins, about NT$ 22 a match. It locks you in for a year.

Never miss one: no single platform can do it. Two subscriptions minimum, about NT$ 518 a month.

One caution: rights are renegotiated annually and the current split runs to next July. Check when the contract ends before you sign an annual plan.
