How StreamLocator works with different types of streaming services

For most streaming services:

We support all the most popular streaming services. See the full list here! Since most streaming services are only available in one country, StreamLocator is smart enough to automatically make sure you’re seen as local. BBC iPlayer will see you as in the UK, and Hulu will see you as being in the US - even at the same time on different devices!

Multi-Country services:

Services that have more than one Country option can be categorised as Portable or Non-Portable. We will go over what this means below.


Portable Services:

  • Netflix:

StreamLocator lets you select your preferred Netflix country. When you change your Netflix country, your account will automatically update to show you all available titles for that country. We currently support the UK, US and Canada, and Netflix is what we refer to as a Portable service. This means your Netflix subscription from your own Country will allow you access to the Titles in any of the Countries we support.

  • Disney+:

After changing countries, just like Netflix, your account will automatically adjust to show you all the available titles for that country.

Note: Disney+ will require you to log out and back in after launching the app for content to refresh on certain devices, such as Fire TVs.

  • HBO Max:

Currently, we support HBO Max in the US. However, HBO Max is portable, so you can use a subscription from any country where it is available to access the US version.

  • F1 TV Pro:

Another portable service. You can have a Pro or Premium subscription in any country where it is available, and use it on our service via our Canadian server to access Pro content.


NON-Portable services:

  • Prime:

Unlike Netflix, Amazon Prime is not a Portable service, which means it doesn’t support country switching within the same Prime account. For Amazon Prime USA, you must have a paid Prime account on Amazon.com. If you select Amazon Prime UK, you must have a paid Prime subscription on Amazon.co.uk. You can find more info about this in our quick overview of Prime Video.

  • DAZN:

Just like Prime Video, DAZN requires a separate subscription for each region you wish to watch in. The DAZN app itself is the same in all regions, but you will need a German subscription for DAZN Germany and a Canadian subscription for DAZN Canada.

  • Paramount+:

A separate subscription and app are required for the US version of Paramount+ compared with those in other regions.

  • Fubo TV:

We support the US and Canada for Fubo, but like Amazon Prime, a separate subscription is required for each Country.
