Common questions

Why do I need to create a Roku account?

Before you can start streaming, channels must be downloaded
and installed on your streaming player. You’ll need a Roku
account to access the Roku Channel Store, manage your
subscriptions, view your purchase history, and add a payment
method. For more info, visit go.roku.com/whyaccount

Why do I need to enter a credit card?

Saving a payment method makes it easy to rent or buy movies
on demand, subscribe to popular services, and enroll in free
trials. Charges will not be made without your authorization.
For more information, visit go.roku.com/paymenthelp

What should I do if my streaming player is not connecting
to my wireless network?

Your streaming player connects to your wireless network the
same as your laptop or smartphone. If these other devices can
access the internet, then your streaming player should be able
to do the same. Make sure to select the same network name,
and enter the same password you use with the other devices.
Remember that passwords are case-sensitive and easy to
enter incorrectly. For more help, visit go.roku.com/wireless

Can I take my Roku streaming player with me when I travel?

Yes, you can bring your streaming player and watch your
favorite entertainment when you travel! Remember to also
bring the USB power adaptor (like your phone charger),
remote, and any cables you use to connect your streaming
player at home. Make sure your destination has a good internet
connection. You may need a computer or smartphone to help
connect your streaming player to a new wireless network. For
