Does it need to be activated right away or does it expire?

Costco has the same deal for 49$ with 12 + 1 month bonus plan..... I feel that deal is better.

You can make the Costco deal even sweeter by paying extra $30 to extend it for another 11 months. Basically when you buy from Costco, you will get two codes, one for 12 months subscription and second one for 1 month subscription. They suggest to first use the 1 month code and when you enter that at Hotstar site and go into your account, you will see that you are on monthly plan of $19.98. There you will have option to upgrade that to annual plan of $50 and with $20 credit, you will need to pay just $30 to convert it for whole year. Once that year exhausts, you can use the second one year code from Costco.

So net net, you will get total 2 years service for $50 (what you pay to Costco) + $30 (what you pay to Hotstar) = $80.

1. This is Hotstar
2. Best Buy reps have no idea about this
3. This is not returnable at Best Buy.

Not sure if they sold this earlier and it would work.

Bestbuy sold me cricket SIM card which turned out to be defective. They didn't took it back because it not returnable

Yes. But you will have to redeem this after your current subscription ends. As the other user suggested, costco deal is better since it offers an extra month and potentially 2 years with extra $30.

At least the codes you get from Costco clearly says no expiration.

Can someone explain why is this better than Apple in-app purchase of Sports & Entertainment Annual for $49.99? Not sure if BestBuy link is for premium. I am not able to find any link to what Premium membership adds?

It is being a while (6+ months) when I did this. Not sure why you aren't seeing it, maybe they aren't doing this now or they might have changed how you do it. But for me, the option to upgrade from monthly plan to yearly plan was right there at the "My Account" page.
