FourSets Since you don't want to use Guest Mode (although I suggest you reconsider that) I suggest creating a new Roku user account for your rental units. All you need is a different email address, then perform a factory reset and set them up as new devices again. I know, it's a bit of work. But with this user account you can remove any CC info and not need to worry about even the last 4 being visible. I would also create a PIN so your guests cannot install new apps, unless you're not concerned about that. Just remember that installing an app on one will add the same app to all Roku devices linked to the same account.
Then you can restore your CC in your personal account without concern it could be viewed from the guest units.
My apologies for the late thank you, Dan. My place was booked so, to be honest, I stepped away from the whole Roku issue đŸ™‚ Thanks for the advice. I did set up a pin to prevent changes/added apps. I will give what you said a try, though I'm a little unsure how to pay for apps with the second account if there's no credit card associated with it.
It would be helpful if Roku created some online settings to allow users to hide personal data on the sets themselves like credit card numbers and email addresses given that some Roku users are businesses.
