Why do I need a Roku account?
You need a Roku account for several reasons:
•
It links you, your Roku TV, and your other Roku streaming devices to the Roku Channel
Store and billing service.
•
Streaming content providers know that it’s OK to send content you request to your Roku
TV.
•
Roku can automatically send updates to your device.
You need a Roku account to activate your device and access entertainment across thousands
of streaming channels. Linking to a Roku account also activates several advanced features on
your TV, such as Guest Mode, the Roku Mobile App, and Live TV Pause, to name just a few.
Roku accounts are free, and while a valid credit card number is not required to create your
account, providing your credit card information makes renting and purchasing entertainment
from the Roku Channel Store fast and convenient.
