PPV/ON DEMAND on Direct TV stream

I'm not a customer yet, but it seems that there are no PPV channels included any streaming package. Does this mean you would have to log into a specific place to order/rent a movie or sporting event?

It also seems that the "on demand" options in the stream appear to all be free.

I'm trying to verify this because I want to make sure kids cannot order things on their own.

No PPV or rentals with the service. There are some free On-demand available. With the service you also have access to some network apps using your credentials to watch more content. Suggest you always do the free trials with any service to verify if it offers wht you are looking for in streaming.

For DirecTV Satellite, call 1-800-531-5000.

For DirecTV Stream, call 1-888-429-4023.

@DIRECTVhelp Well Katherine not true again. There is a On Demand tab that brings up all the networks that you can select and watch content. It's not a lot and not all content is available based on your subscription.

For DirecTV Satellite, call 1-800-531-5000.

For DirecTV Stream, call 1-888-429-4023.
