How to watch anywhere with VPN
Traveling abroad or facing geo-restrictions? A VPN (Virtual Private Network) lets you access your home country’s streaming services from anywhere. VPNs mask your IP address, making it appear you’re browsing from a different location. This bypasses geographic blocks imposed by broadcasters.

- Download and install the VPN app – Available for iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, and Smart TVs
- Connect to a server – Select a server location matching your streaming service (e.g., London server for UK coverage)
- Log into your streaming platform – Access your subscription as normal; the platform sees your VPN location
- Start watching – Stream the match with your regular subscription, no additional fees required
VPNs work seamlessly across devices, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, and Smart TVs. Ensure your VPN subscription is active before kick-off to avoid last-minute technical issues.
