Redeeming digital codes and purchasing movies digitally has made the movies in our collections more accessible than ever, but it can also be frustrating to have your library spread out over a variety of different digital retailers, each with their own apps and logins. Especially if you’ve been faithfully redeeming digital codes for years, many of which have to be redeemed through a specific online retailer, it’s not uncommon to have your purchases scattered across half a dozen different services, which can make browsing your collection needlessly complicated.

Fortunately, there’s a way to significantly streamline your digital entertainment experience by signing up for a free account* withMovies Anywhere.Movies Anywhereis a simple way to gather the vast majority of your digital film catalog into one place, whether you acquired the films through digital purchases or through redeeming digital codes on physical discs.

The first step to getting all your movies together in one place is to set up a free account onMovies Anywhereby clicking the “Join Now” button in the upper righthand corner of the browser, or in theMovies Anywhereapp. Once you’ve set up your account,Movies Anywherewill prompt you to connect any or all of a list of digital retailers to your account. Eligible retailers include Apple TV, Prime Video, Vudu, Google Play, Microsoft Movies & TV, Xfinity, FandangoNOW, Verizon Fios TV, and DIRECTV. All you need are your login credentials for each retailer; once you click the link to connect a digital retailer toMovies Anywhere, you’ll be prompted to login to your account, and then follow a simple set of on-screen instructions to complete the process.

You can connect to as many digital retailers as you want, but you should be aware that you can only connect one account per digital retailer. So for example, if you and your spouse each have your own separate Amazon Prime account, you can only link one of them to yourMovies Anywhereaccount. Additionally, if you have family sharing enabled on any of your digital retailer accounts, the shared films will not import intoMovies Anywhere; only films purchased through the connected account will be added to yourMovies Anywherelibrary.
