SYSTEM OPTIONS AND PREFERENCES

PURCHASES: PAY PER VIEW PROGRAMS

Pay Per View programs (PPV) are DIRECTV programs that you purchase—like a movie ticket—if you subscribe to DIRECTV® programming. You can preview movies on certain channels to determine if you would like to purchase them.

You may need to enter your four-digit system password to order a PPV program if it costs more than the spending limit you set up in the Profiles menu.
