Roku.com\/Link Device : How to activate or link your Roku streaming device<\/span><\/h2>\n

To activate your Roku\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0player or Roku TV\u2122<\/sup>\u00a0when you first use it, you must also create, activate, and link a Roku account using an activation link that will be sent to the email address you provide.<\/p>\n

How to activate your Roku device<\/span><\/h2>\n
\n

Once you have followed the hardware setup instructions included in the Quick Start Guide that came with your Roku device, you are ready to follow the on-screen setup and activation known as Guided Setup.<\/p>\n

During Guided Setup, you will be prompted to enter an email address to begin the activation process. The email address you select will be associated with your Roku account, so be sure to pick an account you regularly have access to. Your Roku account stores which Roku streaming devices you own and which channels you have installed, as well as your preferences and settings.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to have a valid email address associated with your Roku account in order to manage your account and to receive important account notifications. Similarly, you should choose a\u00a0strong, secure password.<\/p>\n

Keep your smartphone or computer handy, as you will need to access your email in order to verify your account. When you are ready to activate your Roku device:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Connect your Roku device to the internet.<\/li>\n
  2. When prompted, enter your email address:\n
      \n
    • If you already have a Roku account, log in using the email address associated with your account.<\/li>\n
    • If you are creating a new Roku account, you will be required to add a payment method to set up\u00a0Roku Pay.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        \n
      1. Use your computer or smartphone to access your inbox and locate the email from Roku with the activation link. If you cannot locate the message, be sure to check your spam or junk folder.<\/li>\n
      2. Open the email from Roku and select the activation link.<\/li>\n
      3. From the Roku website, follow the instructions to create a free Roku account or log in to your existing account.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        You\u00a0must complete all steps on the website\u00a0<\/strong>before returning to your Roku device. Once all steps have been completed on the website, you will see\u00a0‘Setup complete!’<\/em>\u00a0Once you complete the activation process, any streaming channels you selected during the process will be downloaded and installed, and after a few moments your Roku device will be ready to use. You may remove or update channels at any time after the activation process has been completed.<\/p>\n

        \"Avoid<\/p>\n

        What to do if you don’t receive an activation email from Roku<\/span><\/h2>\n
        \n

        If you do not receive an activation email from Roku after completing the activation steps, there are a few things to check to ensure you are able to receive the email and complete activation. If you still do not see an activation email in your inbox, try the following:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Wait a bit longer<\/strong>. In some cases, it can take several minutes before you receive the activation email. Be sure to wait a few minutes before moving forward with troubleshooting steps.<\/li>\n
        • Confirm that you entered your email address correctly<\/strong>. Email addresses are not case sensitive, but extra characters that may have been added by mistake can prevent an activation email from arriving in your inbox.<\/li>\n
        • Check your spam folder<\/strong>. Your email may be set up to automatically block emails from unrecognized senders and place these messages in a spam or junk folder. You may need to go into your spam folder and accept Roku as a recognized sender to ensure that the activation email, and other Roku emails appear in your inbox.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          What to do if your Roku activation link does not work<\/span><\/h2>\n
          \n

          If the activation email troubleshooting steps did not resolve your issue, or if your activation link is not working, return to the on-screen activation on your Roku device and:<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Press\u00a0Star\u00a0\"star\u00a0<\/strong>on your remote<\/li>\n
          2. Select\u00a0Edit email<\/strong><\/li>\n
          3. Re-enter or update your email address when prompted<\/li>\n
          4. Check your email for a new activation link<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            If you continue to have issue receiving the activation email, try to activate your Roku device using a different email address.<\/p>\n

            Troubleshooting activation link errors<\/span><\/h2>\n
            \n

            If you see an error during the activation process, or get stuck on a specific step, search the Roku support site to learn more about how you can resolve issues activating your Roku device.<\/p>\n

            Keep in mind that the activation link expires 30 minutes after being sent to your email. If you see\u00a0‘Your account activation link expired’<\/em>\u00a0or\u00a0‘We can’t seem to reach you by Email’<\/em>\u00a0when trying to use the activation link, tap\u00a0‘Resend’<\/strong>\u00a0on your Roku device and another email will be sent. After a moment, look in your inbox for another message from Roku with a new activation link for you to try.<\/p>\n

            If you continue to see either message after receiving a new activation link, try activating your Roku device using a different email address.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
