Re: my paramount plus essential subscription is not showing up on Roku; keeps telling me to subscrib

I have this same issue. I have a Paramount+ Essential subscription that I subscribe to thru Paramount. Why isn’t it recognized on the Roku channel? When we try to watch sports, etc, Roku tells me we need to subscribe. There doesn’t seem to be a way to pull in our subscription so that we can watch what we’re supposed to be able to watch.

If you have a subscription directly with Paramount+, you have to use their standalone app.  That app and "Paramount+ on The Roku Channel" have mutually exclusive subscriptions.
