I'd like to use a Roku on my smart TV in my income property. If I have to register in my name and provide a credit card for streaming sites, how can I keep a guest from using my information to access streaming sites?
Thank you
I also won't buy it, so how can I do that
Hi there! AinaJohn​
Just a heads up: Roku has a Guest Mode feature that lets your guest use your Roku devices/TV without getting into your account. Here's how to do that. Home > Settings > Guest mode > Enter Guest Mode > Roku PIN.
Note: If you haven't set up a PIN yet, you can click this link to create one.
Here's a helpful article for more detailed instructions.
Hope this helps!

You can skip the credit card information on the account creation unless you are planning to purchase subscriptions through Roku directly, which a lot of people would not recommend. You can set up a pin number to prevent accidental/unauthorized purchased as well as set up guest mode for your device.

Hi, gardenhm
Welcome!
I appreciate your inquiry on using a Roku device in a rental property, and I'm here to guide you with information regarding this matter.
As advised by @JWS9518, Roku has a feature called "Guest Mode." In Guest Mode, you can sign into your own apps to watch your content. On a date that you select, you are automatically signed out and your information is deleted. Guest Mode provides peace of mind that your viewing history remains private and all your accounts are secure.

I hope this information helps, and let us know if you have further questions or clarifications.
Thanks,
Roku Community Team.
