How to verify Peacock’s student discount

  1. 1
    Verify once with SheerID
    Verify at peacocktv.com/student. You are redirected to SheerID and share your name, school email, college name and date of birth; SheerID returns a single-use promo code you apply on the Plans & Payments page.
  2. 2
    Sign in at Peacock with that SheerID account
  3. 3
    Re-verify once a year
    Annual verification. After 12 months the price goes to $10.99 or the then-current rate; students who still verify may renew at the then-current student rate.

Limits and exclusions

A credit card or PayPal is required. Existing paid Peacock subscribers may have to cancel first. Peacock also runs a separate Young Adult offer for ages 18-24 who are not students.

Other brands that take your SheerID verification

Your SheerID account already covers these, so claiming them costs no second upload.
