Showmax is a streaming service that allows you to watch movies, series, live sports, and kids’ shows on various devices. To enjoy uninterrupted viewing, you need to link your device—such as a smartphone, smart TV, tablet, or laptop—to your Showmax account. The process is quick and simple once you are logged in. Here is how to link a device on Showmax.
- Sign Up or Log In to Showmax
Start by visiting the Showmax website or opening the Showmax app. If you’re new, create an account by providing your email and creating a password. If you already have an account, just log in with your existing credentials. - Choose a Subscription Plan
After logging in, select a subscription plan that suits your needs. Showmax offers options such as Showmax Mobile, Showmax Standard, and Showmax Pro. Complete the payment process using your preferred method to activate the account. - Open Showmax on Your New Device
To link a new device, download the Showmax app from the App Store or Google Play Store for mobile devices, or use the Showmax app on your smart TV, decoder, or streaming stick like Chromecast or Apple TV. - Enter Your Login Details
Open the app on the new device and choose the option to sign in. Enter the same email address and password you used when creating your Showmax account. This action will link the device to your account automatically. - Use a Code (For Smart TVs or Decoders)
If you are using a smart TV, you may be asked to enter a code instead of your email and password. Here’s how:
- Open Showmax on your TV
- A unique code will appear on the screen
- On a separate device (phone or computer), go to www.showmax.com/link
- Log in, enter the code shown on your TV, and submit
Your TV will automatically refresh and load your Showmax profile.
- Confirm Device Linking
Once your device is linked, you can start streaming. You can link up to five devices, but only watch on one device at a time, depending on your plan. - Manage Linked Devices
If you reach your device limit, go to your Showmax account settings and remove an old device before adding a new one. This helps keep your account secure and organized.
