Broadcasting of ELF games
DAZN ELF Gamepass[edit | edit source]
On January 30, 2025, it was announced that the ELF Gamepass would be fully integrated into DAZN. Starting May 1, 2025, the Gamepass has been available exclusively through DAZN and is no longer offered directly by the league or other providers. The agreement between DAZN and the ELF initially runs through 2033. Free-TV broadcasts are not affected by this partnership. [1]
For existing Gamepass subscribers, only minor changes occurred: customer data (name, email, subscription status) was transferred to DAZN to ensure a smooth transition. No new registration was required—subscribers received detailed instructions on how to activate their DAZN access.
Pricing remained largely the same as in the 2024 season, although some markets transitioned to local currencies. In addition to the existing Annual Pass (Game Pass) and Weekly Pass (Game Day Pass), a new Monthly Pass was introduced. As with the NFL Game Pass, the ELF Gamepass is not included in DAZN’s standard subscription and must be purchased as an add-on. [2]

The starting price was €99.99 and has remained unchanged for the Season pass since then.
The ELF Gamepass can also be subscribed to from other providers. A list of which providers are available from which country at which price can be found below.
