Log in to Paramount+ through your Walmart+ account

If you have a Walmart+ membership, Paramount+ access is included at no extra cost. To watch Paramount+ content, you log in using your Walmart+ credentials rather than creating a separate Paramount+ account. The process takes about two minutes and works on phones, tablets, computers, and smart TVs.

You do not need a standalone Paramount+ subscription. Your Walmart+ membership is your access. If you do not yet have Walmart+, you will need to set that up first — Paramount+ is bundled into the membership, not sold separately.

Key Takeaways

  • Paramount+ is included with Walmart+ at no extra charge, and you log in using your Walmart+ email and password.
  • On the Paramount+ website or app, select "Log in with Walmart+" instead of creating a new account.
  • You can watch on up to four devices at the same time with one Walmart+ membership.
  • If login fails, check that your Walmart+ membership is active and that you are using the correct email address.

Steps to log in on a web browser

Go to paramountplus.com in your web browser. At the top right, click Log In. You will see a page with login options. Look for the button that says Log in with Walmart+ and click it.

You will be taken to a Walmart login page. Enter the email address and password you use for your Walmart+ account, then click Sign In. Walmart will confirm your membership status and send you back to Paramount+. You are now logged in and can start watching.

If you see a message asking you to choose a profile or create one, do that now. Paramount+ lets you set up separate profiles for different household members so each person gets their own watch list and recommendations.

Steps to log in on the Paramount+ mobile app

read the Paramount+ app from the Apple App Store (iPhone and iPad) or Google Play Store (Android phones). Open the app and tap Log In at the bottom of the screen.

Tap Log in with Walmart+. Enter your Walmart+ email and password on the screen that appears. After you sign in, the app will ask you to confirm your membership. Tap Continue or Confirm depending on what your device shows.

You may be asked to allow the app permission to access your location or send notifications. You can skip these or allow them — they do not affect your ability to watch. Once you are logged in, the home screen will load and you can begin watching when ready.

Logging in on smart TVs and streaming devices

The Paramount+ app is available on most smart TVs, including Samsung, LG, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and Apple TV. Open the app on your TV. You will see a Log In button on the home screen.

Select Log in with Walmart+. Your TV will show a code on the screen — usually four to six characters. Go to the website shown on your TV (often paramountplus.com/set up or a similar URL) on your phone or computer. Enter that code and your Walmart+ login information. Once you confirm, your TV will automatically log in.

This two-step process exists because typing on a TV remote is slow. Using your phone to enter the code is faster and more reliable.

What to do if login fails

If you see an error message or cannot log in, first check that your Walmart+ membership is currently active. Log into your Walmart account on walmart.com to confirm your membership has not expired or been cancelled. If your membership lapsed, you will need to renew it before Paramount+ access works.

Make sure you are using the correct email address — the one tied to your Walmart+ account, not a different email. If you have multiple email addresses, try the one you used when you signed up for Walmart+. Clear your browser's cache and cookies, then try logging in again. On mobile apps, try uninstalling and reinstalling the app.

If you still cannot log in after checking these things, contact Walmart customer service through walmart.com or the Walmart app. They can confirm your membership status and reset your password if needed. Paramount+ support can also help, but Walmart handles the membership verification.

Switching between devices and managing your account

Your Walmart+ membership lets you watch Paramount+ on up to four devices at the same time. You can be watching on your phone, tablet, computer, and TV all at once without any issues.

If you want to log out on a specific device, open the Paramount+ app or website, go to your account settings, and select Log Out. If you forget to log out and want to sign in on a different device, you can straightforward log in on the new device — there is no limit to how many devices you can log into, only how many can stream at the same time.

To change your Paramount+ profile or password, go to your Walmart account settings on walmart.com. Your Paramount+ profile is managed through your Walmart+ account, so any changes you make there will affect your Paramount+ login.

Troubleshooting common issues

You see a message saying your membership is not active. This means your Walmart+ subscription has ended or been cancelled. Check your Walmart account to see the status. If it shows as cancelled, you will need to renew your Walmart+ membership to regain Paramount+ access.

You are logged in but cannot watch certain shows or movies. Some content on Paramount+ requires an ad-free plan, which is a paid upgrade. With the standard Walmart+ bundle, you get Paramount+ with ads. If you want ad-free viewing, you can upgrade through your Walmart account, though this costs extra.

The app keeps logging you out. This usually happens if your Walmart+ membership expired or if you are using an outdated version of the app. Update the app to the latest version through your device's app store. If your membership is active and the app is current, try uninstalling and reinstalling it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a separate Paramount+ account if I have Walmart+?

No. Your Walmart+ membership includes Paramount+ access, and you log in using your Walmart+ credentials. You do not create or maintain a separate Paramount+ account. If you already have a standalone Paramount+ account, you can keep it, but it is not necessary.

Can I share my Walmart+ login with family members?

Yes, up to four people can stream at the same time on one membership. Each person can have their own profile so they get separate watch lists and recommendations. However, sharing your login credentials with people outside your household violates Walmart's terms of service.

What happens to my Paramount+ access if I cancel Walmart+?

Your Paramount+ access ends when ready when your Walmart+ membership is cancelled. You will not be able to log in or watch any content. If you reactivate Walmart+ later, your Paramount+ access returns right away.

Can I watch Paramount+ offline?

The Paramount+ app lets you read some shows and movies to watch without an internet connection, but this feature is only available with the ad-free plan, which requires an upgrade beyond the standard Walmart+ bundle.

Why does Paramount+ ask for my location?

Paramount+ uses location information to enforce licensing agreements — some shows and movies are only available in certain regions. You can deny location access, but some content may not be available to you. Paramount+ will use your IP address as a backup if you do not allow location access.
