YouTube Premium: Benefits

With the bundled YouTube Premium subscription in Airtel’s Rs 200 recharge plan, you get an ad-free viewing experience and shorts. You also get background playback for supported videos so that you can keep listening while using other apps or when your phone’s screen is off. However, YouTube says background playback isn’t available in the Shorts player.

If that’s not already enough, you also get the YouTube Music Premium as well. It’s important to note that while the Premium removes platform-served advertising from regular videos, creator-integrated sponsorships and certain promotions may still appear.

How to claim YouTube Premium

Now that you’ve recharged with the Rs 200 prepaid plan, you now need to head to your Airtel app and look for the Rewards & OTTs section. Find YouTube Premium and follow the on-screen instructions. YouTube Premium will share the same validity as the recharge plan, which is 28 days, so we suggest you claim it on day one. Moreover, once the plan expires, you need to recharge again to reclaim the benefit.
