Sling TV: sign-up, sign-in & setup guide

How to sign up

1. Go to the official Sling TV site

   Use the button above so you land on Sling TV's real sign-up page rather than a search result.

2. Choose a plan

   Compare ad-supported vs. ad-free tiers, and any live-TV or add-on options, then select the one that fits your budget.

3. Create your login

   Enter an email and password — this becomes your sign-in for every device you use, from a phone to a smart TV.

4. Add payment and confirm

   Complete billing details directly on Sling TV's site to activate your subscription.

How to sign in on a new device

Most smart TVs, streaming boxes, and game consoles let you install the Sling TV app and sign in directly with your email and password. Some devices instead show an on-screen code and ask you to enter it at an activation page on your phone or computer — follow the on-screen instructions for your specific device.

What you get

Sling TV's flexible base packages can be combined with genre-based 'Extra' add-ons, making it easier to pay only for the channels you want.
