About UFC

The UFC app is two things at once: a free companion for fight news, cards and results, and the front door to UFC Fight Pass, a $9.99-a-month archive of combat sports going back decades. What changed in 2026 is where the fights themselves live — the numbered events moved to Paramount+ under a seven-year US rights deal, so this app is no longer where you buy them.

UFC Review: The Fights Moved, the Archive Stayed

Pay-Per-View Ended in the United States in 2026

Under a $7.7 billion, seven-year agreement running to 2033, Paramount now distributes the full slate — 13 numbered events and 30 Fight Nights a year — on Paramount+, with selected cards simulcast on CBS. The significant part for anyone reading old advice: there is no pay-per-view upsell any more, and events are included in a Paramount+ subscription that starts at $8.99 a month. The historical pay-per-view purchases still listed in this app's store entry, at $59.99 to $99.99, are relics of the old model rather than current prices.

Fight Pass Costs $9.99 a Month, $95.99 a Year

What this app still sells is the library. Fight Pass runs $9.99 monthly or $95.99 for a year and covers a 24/7 channel with a programme guide, full-event replays, prelims and original documentary series such as Fightlore. Its real depth is outside the UFC itself: more than twenty partner organisations, including Cage Warriors and CFFC, plus classic promotions like PRIDE and Strikeforce, and a Brazilian jiu-jitsu section. For a fan of the sport rather than of one promotion, that catalogue is the reason to subscribe. Prices are US listings.

Free Without a Subscription, and Light on Data

Without paying, the app still delivers fight cards, results, rankings, athlete records and news, which covers most of what a casual viewer opens it for. The privacy picture is better than most sports apps here: Google Play lists four collected categories and declares no third-party sharing, and the listing carries no Contains ads badge. Apple's card notes tracking through unspecified other data. Store ratings are strong on both platforms — 4.8 on the App Store, 4.6 across 119,000 Play reviews. The install is also small next to the other sports apps here, which suits an app you open twice a week for a card and a result.

Pros

Cards, results and rankings are free without a subscription
Fight Pass covers PRIDE, Strikeforce and twenty partner promotions
A 24/7 channel runs with a proper programme guide
No advertising badge on the Google Play listing
No third-party data sharing declared on Google Play

Cons

Numbered events now require a separate Paramount+ subscription
Fight Pass costs $9.99 monthly, or $95.99 a year
Old pay-per-view prices still clutter the store listing
The library matters more than the app, which is mostly a shell

Verdict

Keep it installed for free: cards, results and rankings without advertising, and a data footprint smaller than most sports apps. Pay for Fight Pass only if the archive interests you — twenty-odd promotions, PRIDE, Strikeforce and the documentary series are the value, not this weekend's fights. Those now need Paramount+ instead, which is the single most important thing to know before searching for a way to buy a pay-per-view here.

Core function8.0News, cards, rankings and the Fight Pass library all work; live events now live elsewhere.

Ease of use7.5Clear event pages and a real programme guide, though the split with Paramount+ confuses things.

Monetisation6.5Free tier is genuinely useful; the archive is $9.99 a month on top of a separate service.

Performance7.5A light install that streams the 24/7 channel and replays without trouble.

Privacy & permissions6.5Four collected categories and no third-party sharing, better than most sports apps here.

Frequently asked questions

Is the UFC app free?

The app is free and so is most of what people open it for: fight cards, live results, rankings, athlete records and news. Paying starts with Fight Pass, the video library, at $9.99 a month. The listing carries no advertising badge, so the free tier is not ad-supported either.

What is UFC Fight Pass?

A subscription archive of combat sports: full-event replays, prelims, a 24/7 channel with a schedule, original series like Fightlore, and more than twenty partner promotions including Cage Warriors, plus classic organisations such as PRIDE and Strikeforce. It is a library rather than a way to watch this weekend's main card.

How do you watch UFC events now?

In the United States, through Paramount+, which took exclusive rights in 2026 under a seven-year deal — 13 numbered events and 30 Fight Nights a year, with no pay-per-view charge on top and plans starting at $8.99 a month. Some cards are also simulcast on CBS.

Is pay-per-view really gone?

For US numbered events, yes: the Paramount deal replaced the pay-per-view model with subscription access. The purchase entries still visible in the app's store listing, priced $59.99 to $99.99, are historical events from the old system rather than anything currently on sale.

What are the alternatives?

Paramount+ is now the required companion for live UFC in the US, at $8.99 a month. DAZN covers boxing rather than MMA, at four times that price. For results and news alone, this app costs nothing and does the job without either subscription.
