Player vs. service, in one box
Sparkle TV is only a player, we provide a premium playlist that works with the Sparkle TV app.
Sparkle Plus is an in-app upgrade inside the Sparkle TV app - this site does not sell or activate it.
1. What you are buying — and what you are not
Sparkle Plus is an upgrade to the Sparkle TV player — not a channel subscription and not our playlist. Your channels still come from our premium playlist; Plus makes the player itself more powerful.
- EPG channel logos
- Favourites, sorting and hiding channels
- Timeshift
- DVR / recording
- Multiview
- VOD & catch-up in the player
- Multiple playlists / sources
Read the benefits guide before you decide.
2. The three real price options
Three options, all bought in-app via Google Play. Most regular viewers choose yearly or one-time.
- $1.49 / month
- $7.99 / year
- $20.99 one-time
This site lists these prices for information only — it has no Plus checkout, codes or activation service.
3. Step by step — buying Plus in the app via Google Play
The whole purchase happens inside the app and takes under a minute. If a website or message offers to sell you Plus outside the app, it is not us and it is not Google Play.
1
Open Sparkle TV on your Android device and go to Settings.
2
Tap the Sparkle Plus / upgrade option.
3
Choose monthly, yearly or one-time.
4
Confirm with Google Play, using the payment method on your Google account.
5
Wait a few seconds — features unlock as soon as Google Play confirms.
Try the playlist free for 24 hours
One free trial per user, full playlist access, no card required to start. Or see real playlist prices for 1 and 2 devices.
4. Share Plus to up to 5 devices
One Plus purchase can be shared to your other devices — up to 5 in total, including Fire TV.
1
Install Sparkle TV on the other device.
2
Sign in with the same account route the app offers.
3
Use the restore / share option in the Plus settings.
4
The upgrade now follows you — from TV to Firestick to tablet.
5. If your Plus purchase does not show
This is almost always an account mismatch. Because the purchase is with Google Play and the app, this site cannot activate it for you.
1
Check you are signed into the same Google account you bought with.
2
Use Restore Purchase in the app's settings.
3
Restart the app.
4
Still not showing? Use the support route inside Google Play / the app, with your order number.
For playlist questions only, email support@sparkletvplayer.com.
Need a hand?
Never buy Sparkle Plus from a website or a message thread — it is only sold in-app via Google Play. Anyone selling 'Plus codes' is not us, and this site does not sell or activate Plus.
