You can connect Sportsnet to your Amazon Prime account by subscribing to it as a Prime Video Channel. This process integrates Sportsnet programming directly into your Prime Video app for seamless viewing.
Prerequisites
Before you start, make sure you have two things. First, you need an active Amazon Prime membership in Canada. The Sportsnet channel is a Canadian service and requires a Canadian Amazon account. Second, you need a device that supports the Prime Video app, such as a smart TV, streaming stick like a Roku or Fire TV, gaming console, or a mobile device.
How to Subscribe to Sportsnet on Prime Video
Subscribing is a straightforward process managed entirely within the Amazon ecosystem. You do not need to visit the Sportsnet website.
- Start by opening the Prime Video app on your preferred device or by navigating to the Prime Video website in your web browser.
- Log in to your Amazon account if you are not already signed in.
- Locate the “Store” or “Channels” section in the main navigation menu. The exact name and location can vary slightly between devices.
- Use the search bar and type “Sportsnet website watch.sportsnet.ca/activate“ to find the channel.
- Select the Sportsnet channel from the search results. You will see a details page with information about the subscription, including the monthly price and any available free trial.
- Click the button to start your subscription. Common labels for this button are “Get Started” or “Start your free trial.”
- Amazon will ask you to confirm the subscription. Your payment information is already linked to your Prime account, so you just need to approve the recurring charge.
Once you confirm, your subscription is active immediately. Billing is handled directly by Amazon and will appear as part of your regular Amazon charges.

Watching and Managing Your Subscription
After subscribing, you can watch Sportsnet content without leaving the Prime Video app. You do not need to download or sign into the separate Sportsnet+ app. All live channels and on-demand content from your Sportsnet subscription will appear within the Prime Video interface. Look for a new Sportsnet row on your home screen or browse the dedicated channel page to find what you want to watch.
The content available through the Prime Video Channel is equivalent to the Sportsnet+ Premium tier. This gives you access to all live and on-demand content, including regional and national NHL games, Toronto Blue Jays baseball, NBA games, and other sports programming.
You can manage your subscription at any time. To cancel, go to the Amazon website and find the “Your Memberships & Subscriptions” section under your account settings. From there, you can view and cancel your Prime Video Channels, including Sportsnet.

Important Considerations
You cannot link an existing Sportsnet+ subscription to your Amazon Prime Video account. The Prime Video Channel is a separate subscription. If you already pay for Sportsnet+ directly through Sportsnet, you must cancel that subscription first. After canceling, you can then subscribe new through Prime Video Channels to avoid being billed twice. The channel is only available to Amazon Prime members located in Canada.
