TV Licensing Cash Plans

How It Works

How does it work?

When you join The TV Licensing Payment Card scheme, you'll have the option to pay weekly or monthly.

If you pay weekly, you'll pay for your first TV Licence over six months in 26 weekly payments. After this, you can move to fortnightly payments towards your next TV Licence.

If you choose to pay monthly, you’ll usually have 6 months to pay for your first TV Licence. (Depending on when you join the scheme, we may have to spread your payments into as few as 3 months, or as many as 11 months.) Once your renewal date is 6 months ahead, you will then have 12 months to pay for your next licence so the payments will be smaller.

To enjoy the benefit of paying weekly, fortnightly or monthly, you must keep up the regular payments as shown on your payment schedule.

What is The TV Licensing Payment Card?

It's a payment scheme open to everyone applying for a colour TV Licence. It allows you to spread the cost of your TV Licence by making regular weekly, fortnightly or monthly payments by cash, debit or credit card. You'll receive a payment schedule showing the payment amounts and dates.
