This article will walk you through how to access CNBC’s live stream and on-demand content on your Roku player. Whether you want to tune into Squawk Box over breakfast or catch up on Mad Money in the evening, we’ve got you covered.
Activating Your CNBC Channel at cnbc.com/rokutv
Before you can start watching, you’ll need to activate the CNBC channel on your Roku. Here’s how:
- Install the CNBC App
- Navigate to the Roku Channel Store
- Search for “CNBC”
- Select the CNBC app and click “Add Channel”
- Activate with CNBC.com/rokutv
- On a phone, tablet, or computer, visit cnbc.com/rokutv
- Enter the activation code shown on your Roku
- Follow the prompts to link devices
Once activated, you can access CNBC directly from your Roku home screen rather than entering codes each time.
💡Pro Tip: If activation doesn’t work the first time, double check that your Roku is updated to the latest software version.
Browsing CNBC on Your Roku
The CNBC Roku app makes it simple to find what you want to watch:
- Live TV – Tune into real-time coverage of the trading day and financial news.
- Shows – Access full episodes and segments from all your favorite CNBC programs.
- Sections – Easily browse business news, markets, investing, tech, and more.
You can also save shows to My Feed or pause live TV with CNBC’s cloud DVR service.
Still Having Trouble?
If you’ve activated CNBC but still see error messages, you may need to:
- Check your TV provider subscription status
- Re-authenticate your provider login
- Contact CNBC customer support
Roku hardware issues unrelated to activation can also prevent CNBC from working properly.
