FIFA+ is a free streaming service dedicated to soccer fans. It comes with live games, on-demand content, and comprehensive match data—making it a great companion for whichever soccer leagues you prefer to watch.

While the FIFA World Cup and FIFA Women’s World Cup are soccer’s main events, the scope of FIFA+ extends beyond those quadrennial tournaments. In 2026, FIFA+ took a massive leap forward by partnering with DAZN, integrating its entire library into the DAZN interface while remaining available as a standalone app. We’ve highlighted everything the service offers and what devices are available for streaming.

Don't be caught offsides with the wrong streamer this World Cup

DIRECTV is the streaming service hooligans choose for football. According to CableTV.com's 2026 customer satisfaction survey, more fans (49%) watch soccer on DIRECTV than any other streaming service. That's more than rivals Fubo and YouTube TV. What's more, a staggering 97% of DIRECTV streaming subscribers reported satisfaction with their live sports experience. So, what are you waiting for? Hit the World Cup pitch this summer by streaming it on DIRECTV.

Is FIFA Plus worth it?

All soccer fans should have the official FIFA app in their roster. While it’s not compatible with many streaming devices, FIFA+ is free to use and offers thousands of live soccer games each month.

But live games aren’t even the best part of FIFA+. The streaming service offers many high-quality series and documentaries covering topics ranging from grassroots stories to World Cup campaigns. There are also several great player profiles focusing on footballers like Dani Alves, Mohamed Salah, Sam Kerr, and Wendie Renard.

The FIFA Plus Home page features a navigation bar at the top, followed by a Countdown to Qatar 2022 banner and rows of on-demand video content.
The FIFA+ landing page highlights the latest video content and upcoming FIFA events, as seen on a Google Chrome browser.

You can also view past, present, and future soccer games from your favorite leagues on FIFA+. This Match Centre feature is handy if you follow several leagues from various countries—including continental competitions like the UEFA Champions League.

While FIFA+ launched in April 2022, it quickly became one of the most accessible streaming services out there (if you ignore its lackluster device compatibility). FIFA+ is available in over ten languages, including English, French, German, Portuguese, and Spanish. There are even more features rolling out each year, building on the sports governing body’s mission to diversify its media footprint.

Only one plan exists for FIFA+, and it’s free, with no signup required. There’s not even a premium tier that costs money. Everything on FIFA+ is available to everyone—except for any live matches restricted based on location.

If you want to retain your Continue Watching progress on FIFA+ across multiple devices, you can sign up for a free FIFA.com account. An account also allows you to shop for match tickets and play fantasy games like FIFA World Cup Fantasy.

Additionally, FIFA+ is now available for free through DAZN. You can access the FIFA+ channel and library directly within the DAZN app on any device, providing a more well-rounded experience that combines free FIFA content with DAZN’s premium rights.

FIFA+ content excels when it’s not restricted

For a free service, FIFA+ is packed with content. There are live matches, on-demand shows and documentaries, and full match replays from past FIFA competitions. I particularly love those archived games because there’s no other reliable place to watch complete men’s and women’s World Cup matches. What you’ll find on YouTube is pretty scattered.

You can also watch The Best FIFA Football Awards live on FIFA+. After all, who doesn’t love award shows that select the best individuals in a profession of thousands?

Beyond video, FIFA+ also has exclusive news articles, match statistics, and interactive games. The free-to-play soccer trivia and fantasy games are pretty cool. But I’d be lying if I didn’t say I spent more time browsing FIFA’s Match Centre feature. It’s a great way to score up-to-date info on your favorite teams while keeping tabs on upcoming matches.

The FIFA Plus Live page displays rows of live games, match highlights, and a calendar of the current day’s matches.

FIFA Plus live games

As I’ve mentioned, FIFA+ hosts many live games each month. These range from FIFA-sanctioned tournaments to domestic league competitions—including men’s, women’s, and youth-level matches.

While FIFA+ promises over 40,000 live matches each year, those games are only accessible if they aren’t already broadcast by a FIFA media partner in your country. For example, U.S.-based viewers often find major tournament games restricted if they’re already being broadcast by FOX Sports.

FIFA Plus shows and documentaries

FIFA+ excels when it comes to its series and documentaries. The streaming service has such a wide range of on-demand content that it’s almost overwhelming. While there’s no handy Watchlist feature at this time, you can easily fall down the soccer rabbit hole by entering your favorite player’s name into the FIFA+ search box.

Here’s a partial list of what kind of titles FIFA+ offers.

FIFA Plus specs and features

Because FIFA+ is free, you don’t have to worry about any account and streaming limitations like those on Netflix or Hulu. You aren’t even required to have a FIFA.com account to access the library, but I recommend signing up to sync your Continue Watching progress across multiple devices.

Other standard features are slowly trickling onto the platform. I’m still holding out hope for a dedicated Watchlist feature to help organize the massive amount of content.

Video and audio quality

Video on FIFA+ streams at a maximum resolution of 1080p and comes paired with 2.0 stereo sound. Those are standard qualities for most free streaming services, though some are starting to dabble in 4K video. I’ve noticed most live games on FIFA+ stream at 720p, while the premium documentaries typically hit the full 1080p mark.

For the best streaming experience, you’ll want to make sure your internet connection speed is at least 5 Mbps. But you’ll want a more robust connection if you’re not the only device on the network. You can visit our Best Internet for Streaming guide for a closer look at the top-recommended internet services geared towards streaming.

FIFA+ compatible devices

Since its launch, FIFA+ has slowly expanded its native device support. You can even watch a live 24/7 FIFA+ channel on Samsung’s free, ad-supported Samsung TV Plus service. Furthermore, the DAZN partnership means you can access FIFA+ content on any device that supports the DAZN app—opening compatibility to a much wider range of devices.
