How to watch San Francisco 49ers games for free in 2024

Several streaming services will show NFL games (including the Super Bowl) for free during the 2024 season.

Australia

Watch San Francisco 49ers games live on 7plus

Australia’s Seven network offers live streams of select games during the regular season and live streams of every NFL playoff game through the Super Bowl on its streaming platform 7plus. Typically, Seven announces in advance which regular-season games will air on 7Plus, so 49ers fans living in Australia will have a few days to prepare.

During the week, Australian fans of American football (also known as “gridiron”) can also find replays, highlights, on-demand shows, and other bonus content on its 7mate channel. 

Note: To sign up, you may need to provide an Australian postcode like 2001 or 3001.

If 7plus is blocked on your school or office network, that doesn’t mean you have to miss out on important games. ExpressVPN encrypts all your traffic, so the network can’t see which sites you’re visiting. This way, you can easily watch the NFL from anywhere.

Austria and Germany

Watch San Francisco 49ers games live on RTL and Nitro

German and Austrian NFL fans can catch select San Francisco 49ers games on RTL or Nitro, the exclusive free-to-air TV partners of the NFL in Germany. 49ers fans are in luck if their squad returns to the playoffs, as RTL will also have NFL postseason games. Please note the RTL+ streaming service will also air exclusive games live each week.

France

Watch San Francisco 49ers games live on 6play

6play will offer French viewers one free game per week during the 2024 NFL season. Sometimes, that will even include San Francisco 49ers games! For the unfamiliar, 6play is a free-to-watch streaming service, but you will need to create a separate 6play or M6 Replay account to stream content. ExpressVPN complements your existing 6play account so you can watch French content securely at blazing-fast speeds.

New Zealand

Watch San Francisco 49ers games live on TVNZ

TVNZ will air up to three free games per week during the 2024 NFL season. New Zealand viewers can watch TVNZ securely by simply connecting to an ExpressVPN New Zealand server and proceeding with the signup or login process.

Streaming options for select NFL games

Watch San Francisco 49ers games live on Amazon Prime

Thursday Night Football returns to Amazon Prime Video for the 2024 season. Although most viewers will need to pay for Prime Video to watch every Thursday night game, fans in local markets will be able to watch the games without a Prime subscription. 

Have you noticed your connection seems to slow down whenever you try to stream? You might be a victim of activity-based ISP throttling. ExpressVPN sends all your traffic through an encrypted tunnel, so even your ISP can’t see what you’re doing online. If it can’t detect that you’re streaming, it can’t slow you down based on your activity.

Watch San Francisco 49ers games live on ESPN+

ESPN+ will simulcast all Monday Night Football games airing on ESPN. Select games will also air exclusively on ESPN+, although fans in local markets can tune in without a subscription. Note that proof of subscription to another streaming service, such as YouTube TV or Fubo, may be required to live stream the game on ESPN+.

Watch San Francisco 49ers games live on Peacock

Great news: Peacock will stream every NFL game airing on NBC throughout the 2024-25 season and has a plethora of content beyond live sports. Keep in mind Peacock does not offer a free trial.

Other ways to live stream the San Francisco 49ers in 2024

Watch San Francisco 49ers games live on Sling TV

Channels: ESPN, ESPN 2, Fox, NBC, NFL Network

Sling TV provides access to most channels airing San Francisco 49ers games. The key word there is most, as Sling does not include CBS. Please note that Sling no longer offers a free trial.

Canada

Watch San Francisco 49ers games live on TSN

TSN airs select Sunday afternoon NFL games, along with Sunday Night Football, Monday Night Football, and Thursday Night Football in Canada. Note that Canadian subscribers will need a Canadian credit card to subscribe.

United Kingdom

Watch San Francisco 49ers games live on Sky Sports

British fans who want to watch NFL games, including select San Francisco 49ers games, can tune into Sky Sports. Sky Sports is available to UK and Ireland residents only and requires a contract. Subscribers can also live stream games online via the Sky Go apps for desktop, iOS, and Android.

Note: You will need a UK or Ireland credit/debit card in order to subscribe.

Watch NFL games on DAZN with a VPN

Overseas fans are in luck: There’s no such thing as an out-of-market NFL game. NFL Game Pass International offers live streams of every NFL game without blackouts, with no U.S. cable subscription required. The NFL Game Pass price varies depending on your country. Just remember that your DAZN subscription will be locked to your specific region and cannot be changed to another country, even when traveling. 

An NFL Game Pass subscription includes every NFL game from the preseason through the Super Bowl, along with highlights, NFL RedZone, the NFL Network, and plenty of other NFL content. DAZN is compatible with a wide range of devices, including smartphones, tablets, computers, and TVs, allowing you to watch San Francisco 49ers games on the go or on your big screen.

Have you ever tried watching a game, only to have the action interrupted by lag or buffering? You might be the victim of ISP throttling. ExpressVPN encrypts your traffic so your ISP can’t see what you’re doing online and slow you down based on your activity. You can live stream San Francisco 49ers games in HD, or even UHD when available, with ExpressVPN.

NFL International Game Pass vs. NFL+

In 2022, the NFL discontinued U.S. Game Pass and introduced the NFL+ app. What’s the difference between watching NFL Game Pass International and NFL+ in the U.S.?

NFL+

The NFL+ app offers live NFL game streams for a single team (within your home market) along with national primetime games. For example, a 49ers fan living in San Francisco can watch games through NFL+ at the coffee store, at the gym, or while stuck in line at Levi’s Stadium. However, a 49ers fan living in Green Bay is stuck watching the Packers each week—unless, of course, the 49ers are available in the Green Bay market either through a nationally-televised game or it being a regional game.

The NFL+ premium tier offers NFL RedZone, which allows fans to enjoy seven hours of commercial-free football every Sunday. NFL RedZone features every touchdown from every Sunday afternoon game, making it the perfect way for you to track your fantasy football team. 

NFL+ is only available for live streams on mobile and tablet devices, and does not stream as reliably as Game Pass. It provides streams of out-of-market preseason games, live game audio (for all games, with all feeds), and the NFL Films archive, but if you want to stream NFL games on your TV without blackouts, Game Pass International is the way to go.

NFL Game Pass International

In most other markets, such as Mexico, Brazil, and most EU countries, the international NFL Game Pass offers all 272 regular-season games plus the NFL Playoffs and Super Bowl. International Game Pass subscribers get access to NFL RedZone, the NFL Network, and all NFL Films programming. There’s a 7-day free trial available.

How to live stream San Francisco 49ers out-of-market games on NFL Sunday Ticket

United States residents cannot purchase the out-of-market NFL package through DAZN. Instead, they can watch out-of-market games through YouTube TV via the NFL Sunday Ticket plan. Prices vary, and new customers are not required to purchase a YouTube TV subscription. 

However, please note that blackouts still apply, meaning a San Francisco resident who purchases Sunday Ticket cannot watch a 49ers game airing on CBS or Fox.

About the 2024 San Francisco 49ers

The San Francisco 49ers enter the 2024 season as legitimate Super Bowl contenders even after last year’s Big Game loss. All-Pro standouts Nick Bosa and Fred Warner headline a dominant defense, with Madden NFL 25 cover athlete Christian McCaffrey and young quarterback Brock Purdy leading a stellar offense. With a balanced roster, the 49ers are poised to potentially win their first Super Bowl title in 30 years.
