HBO Max (now branded simply as “Max” in many places) is available in Australia with three main pricing tiers, offered on both monthly and yearly plans.

Quick Scoop

  • Basic with ads: about AU$11.99 per month, or AU$119.99 per year.
  • Standard (no ads, Full HD): about AU$15.99 per month, or AU$159.99 per year.
  • Premium (no ads, 4K, more devices/downloads): about AU$21.99 per month, or AU$219.99 per year.

Some launch promos in 2025 briefly offered lower “intro” prices (for example AU$7.99, AU$11.99, and AU$17.99 per month that later step up), but current guides list the higher figures above as the standard Australian pricing going into 2026.

If you see cheaper HBO Max prices mentioned on older forum posts or articles, they are usually limited-time intro deals or prices converted from US dollars via VPN access rather than the official local Australian Max service.
