Is Pluto TV Available Worldwide? Country-by-Country Breakdown (2026)
Pluto TV is free but only in about 35 countries. Channel lineups differ by region. Which countries have it and free alternatives where it is blocked.
Pluto TV is in about 35 countries including the US, UK, Germany, France, Spain, Brazil, Australia, and the Nordics. Most of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East have no access. Channel lineups vary heavily by country.
Pluto TV is a free streaming service from Paramount Global that does something most competitors don't: alongside on-demand content, it runs hundreds of live channels that feel like cable TV, just delivered over the internet. It has spread to a decent number of markets since launching in 2014, but "worldwide" would be overselling it.
Countries where Pluto TV is available
Pluto TV is in roughly 35 countries — more reach than most free services. The list:
- United States, Canada
- United Kingdom
- Germany, Austria, Switzerland
- France, Italy, Spain
- Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden
- Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Colombia, Peru
- Australia
A handful of other Latin American and European markets also have access. Paramount kept adding countries through 2025 and 2026, though the pace has slowed.
Channel lineups differ by country
This is the part that catches people off guard. The channel lineup is completely different depending on your country. The US version has over 250 channels — news, sports, niche oddities like "Cats 24/7" and a dedicated Gordon Ramsay channel. European versions typically run 50 to 150 channels with localized content mixed in. Latin America varies further still.
On-demand libraries are also territory-specific because Paramount licenses content market by market. A movie available on Pluto TV in the US might not exist in the UK catalog.
Where Pluto TV is not available
No Pluto TV in most of Asia, the Middle East, Africa, or Eastern Europe. Japan, South Korea, India, China, South Africa, Nigeria — none of them have access. Loading pluto.tv from those regions gives you a geo-block.
Alternatives where Pluto TV is blocked
Alternatives depend on where you are. Samsung TV Plus comes pre-loaded on Samsung smart TVs in many countries and has a similar live-channel setup. Tubi works well across the Americas and Australasia. Rakuten TV has a free tier in Europe. YouTube is the most universally available free video platform anywhere. In India, JioCinema has a big free tier. Plenty of local broadcasters run their own free catch-up apps too.
