With the growing number of Over-The-Top (OTT) apps, it's now becoming essential for users to choose their operator and plan based on their OTT preferences. Free OTT subscriptions are a great way to extract the maximum value from your mobile plan. And so, subscribers need to pick and choose their plans wisely. Jio, Airtel and Vi have a variety of free OTT subscriptions on offer, depending on the plan (and validity) one chooses. Some operators even offer dedicated OTT pass recharges with monthly, quarterly and yearly recharges. We take a closer look at the best prepaid plans with OTT benefits across Jio, Airtel and Vi.

Benefits of Prepaid OTT plans

Mobile OTT plans do offer several benefits especially for those who consume streaming content directly on their smartphones. A key benefit of OTT plans is their access to multiple platforms compared to subscribing to different OTT services individually. Most OTT bundles will provide a free subscription (depending on the validity period) for one streaming app (Netflix, Amazon Prime, Sony LIV) and provide access to multiple streaming services through their own video streaming platforms (JioTV, Airtel Xstream, Vi Movies & TV). A key detail subscribers need to keep in mind is that some OTT plans will only let users stream content to their mobile phones. Some operators and plans are more generous letting users use their OTT benefits on laptops and smart TVs as well. In short, it's advisable to read the fine print in your app, and check exactly what's covered under your plan before you recharge.
