You can get FuboTV running on your Roku device and start streaming live TV and sports. The process involves adding the FuboTV channel to your Roku and then activating your account.
Before You Begin
Make sure you have a few things ready. You need a Roku device connected to your TV and the internet. You also need an active FuboTV subscription. If you do not have an account yet, you can sign up on the FuboTV website fubo.tv/roku-connect.
Add the FuboTV Channel to Your Roku
First, you need to install the FuboTV app, which Roku calls a “channel.”
- Press the Home button on your Roku remote to go to the main screen.
- Scroll down the menu and select Search.
- Start typing “FuboTV” into the search bar. The app will appear in the search results.
- Select the FuboTV channel from the list.
- Choose the Add Channel option. Your Roku will download and install the app. Once it’s finished, you will see a confirmation message.
After the channel is added, you can find it at the bottom of your channel list on the home screen. If you want to move it for quicker access, highlight the channel, press the star (*) button on your remote, and select Move Channel.
Activate FuboTV on Your Roku
With the channel installed, you can now launch it and sign in to activate your account.
- Open the FuboTV app from your Roku home screen.
- The app will give you two options: Sign Up or Sign In. Select Sign In.
You have two ways to sign in and activate your service on the Roku device.
Method 1: Use an Activation Code
This is often the simplest method. The Roku app will display an activation code on your TV screen.
- On a separate device, like a smartphone or computer, open a web browser and go to fubo.tv/connect.
- If you are not already signed in to your FuboTV account on that device, the site will prompt you to enter your email and password.
- Enter the activation code from your TV screen into the box on the website.
- Once you submit the code, your FuboTV app on the Roku will automatically sign in, and you can start streaming.
Activation codes refresh every five minutes, so ensure you enter the code before it expires. If a code does not work, double-check that you entered it correctly and are on the official FuboTV website fubo.tv/link.
Method 2: Sign In with Email and Password
If you prefer not to use a second device, you can sign in directly on your TV.
- On the FuboTV sign-in screen, choose the option to sign in with your email.
- Use your Roku remote and the on-screen keyboard to enter the email address and password associated with your FuboTV account.
- Select the Sign In button to proceed.
After you successfully sign in using either method, you can select your user profile and begin watching content. You can browse the home screen for recommendations or use the guide to find specific channels.

Signing Up Through Roku
If you don’t have a FuboTV account, you can create one directly through the Roku app. When you first open the app, select Sign Up instead of Sign In. Follow the on-screen instructions to choose a plan and create your account. Note that when you sign up this way, your subscription is billed and managed through your Roku.com account, not directly by FuboTV.
