How to Get Peacock on Roku?

By Lore Apostol / September 18, 2021

Peacock is one of the latest additions to the streaming services market, and it's only normal that you would also want it on your Roku device. To get Peacock on Roku, sign up for an account on the service's website if you are not a subscriber yet, and then download the channel onto your Roku.

First of all, you need to be a Peacock customer. If you are not, head over to Peacock and create an account - it's free! Fill in the required information and follow the steps to personalize your profile. At first, you see an Account Holder (or main profile) and a Kids profile, and you can have up to six profiles on your account.

The first option you get, and the most appealing one, is to watch Peacock for free by selecting the ad-supported Free plan. After that, you can directly start watching content since nothing else is required - no activation, no email confirmation, and, of course, no credit card details. You can confirm your email anytime later since it's not mandatory to access the content.

If you are an Xfinity or Cox customer, you can access the limited-commercials Peacock Premium at no additional cost for the paid tiers. Otherwise, you can get the Premium tier for $4.99/month. The Premium Plus plan allows you to watch with limited interruptions, and you can upgrade to this tier from a Peacock Premium for $5 per month or $50 per year.

How to Watch Peacock on Your Roku

Now let's get to your Roku device.

  1. Press the Home button on your Roku remote to get to the home screen.
  2. Select "Search" and type in "Peacock."
  3. Select "Peacock TV" from the search results and then choose "Add channel."
  4. Wait for the app to be installed and go back to the home screen, find it in the installed channels, and then select it.
  5. When you use the app for the first time, you will need to log in, so enter your Peacock account credentials. Of course, you can move the app higher if you want to use it often.

That's it! It's not very hard to get Peacock on Roku, and now you can enjoy all its content on your favorite device.
