Why Joyn is restricted outside Germany

Why access is restricted

Why access is restricted

Joyn licenses its content for Germany only, as set out in its terms of use. Access is filtered by IP location, and the filter covers the free catalogue and the 100+ free live channels, not just the paid tier.
How a VPN can help

How a VPN can help

A German IP address lets Joyn serve you as a local viewer, which restores the free catalogue and the free live channels.
Do you need a subscription?

Do you need a subscription?

No. You don't need a paid subscription or an account to watch the free catalogue. Joyn PLUS+ is separate: it must be ordered in Germany, the first playback must happen there, and after 180 days abroad you need to stream from Germany again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Joyn work abroad without a VPN?

Only Joyn PLUS+ does, and only during a temporary stay in the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Norway. The free catalogue and the free live channels are unavailable everywhere outside Germany.

Do I need a Joyn account?

Not for the free catalogue. Joyn plays without registration, so a German IP address is usually enough.

Which server should I choose?

A server in Germany. If a stream does not start, switch to another German server and reload the page.

Can I subscribe to Joyn PLUS+ from abroad?

PLUS+ has to be ordered in Germany with a SEPA direct debit, and Joyn's terms do not allow bypassing its geolocation.

Will my connection be fast enough for HD?

That depends on your own connection and on server load. If quality drops, reconnect to a less busy server in Germany.

Watch Joyn from anywhere

Connect to Germany, open Joyn and check that it works. If it doesn't work for you, the 30-day money-back guarantee applies.
