Roku Guest Mode- Guest being able to use their own credit card for movie purchase.

Hello..  I have a Q about the Guest Mode.  When Roku is in guest mode at my rental - is there still a way for them to make purchases of movies (Redbox, amazon, ect) with their own credit card?

Re: Roku Guest Mode- Guest being able to use their own credit card for movie purchase.

From here:  https://support.roku.com/article/360015611254

"Note: In Guest Mode, you cannot make purchases that are billed to your host's Roku account. You can however make purchases when you sign in to a channel where you have a payment method on file."

So it sounds to me like the answer to your question is yes if they already have, or establish, an account to say Redbox and set up a payment method directly with them.  It would be completely separate from any Roku account.
