How to Get a Roku Free Trial With a Virtual Credit Card

In 2008, in collaboration with Netflix, Roku came on the market. Due to the inundation of services, Roku sought to simplify the streaming experience. The original design was a set-box that connected TVs to streaming services, and now Roku also comes pre-installed on many smart TVs. Although Roku is free, consumers can get free trials on Roku for various streaming services.

Your Roku account offers many free trials, from Paramount to DailyBurn. Free trials are an exciting way to see if a streaming service is right for you or simply binge a new series. Unfortunately, people often forget to cancel their free trials resulting in unwanted credit card charges. Luckily, DoNotPay is here to help you access free trials without the hassle.

Does Roku Offer a Free Trial?

Roku is a free service so a free trial is not necessary. There is a Roku Channel, but that, too, is free. However, Roku runs special deals for other streaming services through their platform. These services and discounts may vary. To access entertainment promotions, you need to follow a few steps.

1. Log in to your Roku account.
2. Click on Shop Products.
3. Click on Special Offers.
4. A list of offers is listed; click the add channel button next to the offer you wish to try.
5. Some services are payable via Roku Pay, while others must be paid through the service directly.

How to Manage Subscriptions on Roku
