What DAZN Is and How to Watch

DAZN is a streaming service that shows live and on-demand sports. You pay a monthly or annual fee, read the DAZN app or visit the website, sign in with your account, and watch sports events on your phone, tablet, computer, or connected TV. The service carries different sports depending on which country you're in — in Canada, for example, DAZN shows NHL, MLS, and boxing; in other regions the lineup differs.

To start watching, you create an account with an email address and password, add a payment method (credit card, debit card, or PayPal depending on your region), and choose your subscription plan. Once you're signed up, you can stream when ready. Most plans let you watch on multiple devices at the same time, though the exact number varies by subscription tier.

Key Takeaways

  • DAZN charges a monthly or annual subscription fee and streams live sports events plus replays and highlights on demand.
  • The sports available on DAZN depend on your country — check the DAZN website for your region to see what leagues and events are included.
  • You can watch on phones, tablets, computers, and smart TVs by downloading the app or logging into the website.
  • Most DAZN plans allow you to stream on multiple devices at once, but you cannot share your login with people outside your household in most regions.
  • You can cancel your subscription at any time, and you will keep access until the end of your current billing period.

Subscription Plans and Pricing

DAZN offers different subscription tiers depending on where you live. In Canada, for instance, there is a monthly plan and an annual plan, with the annual option costing less per month if you pay upfront. In other countries, pricing and plan options differ — some regions offer a free tier with ads, while others do not.

Check the DAZN website for your specific country to see current pricing and what each plan includes. Prices change periodically, and promotional offers (such as discounted first months) come and go. The website will show you exactly what you'll pay and what sports are in each tier before you enter your payment information.

Setting Up Your Account and Devices

To create a DAZN account, go to the DAZN website or open the DAZN app on your device. Enter your email address, create a password, and provide your name and date of birth. Then add a payment method — DAZN accepts major credit cards, debit cards, and PayPal in most regions.

Once your account is active, you can watch on any device where you read the app or log in through a web browser. DAZN has apps for iOS and Android phones and tablets, apps for smart TVs (including Samsung, LG, and others), and you can watch through a web browser on a computer. Sign in with the same email and password on each device. Most plans let you stream on multiple devices at the same time, but check your plan details to confirm the number of simultaneous streams included.

What Sports and Events Are Available

DAZN's sports lineup varies significantly by country. In Canada, the service includes NHL games, MLS matches, boxing events, and other sports. In the United States, DAZN focuses on boxing, MMA, and soccer. In Europe, the available sports differ again — some regions get Serie A soccer, others get different leagues.

Visit the DAZN website for your country and browse the schedule to see what events are coming up. You can also search for specific teams or sports to see if they're included in your region. DAZN updates its lineup regularly, so the sports available may change from year to year as broadcasting rights shift between services.

Watching Live Events and On-Demand Content

When you open DAZN, you'll see upcoming live events listed prominently. Click or tap on an event to start watching — if it hasn't started yet, you can set a reminder. Once a live event ends, DAZN usually makes a replay available on demand within a few hours, so you can watch it later at your own pace.

DAZN also keeps highlights and full replays of past events in its library. Use the search function or browse by sport and team to find what you're looking for. The on-demand library means you don't have to watch everything live — you can catch up whenever it fits your schedule.

Canceling Your Subscription

You can cancel your DAZN subscription at any time through your account settings. Log into your DAZN account on the website or app, go to your account or subscription settings, and look for the option to cancel or manage your subscription. Follow the prompts to confirm the cancellation.

When you cancel, you keep access to DAZN until the end of your current billing period. If you paid for a month, you can watch until the end of that month. If you paid for a year, you can watch until the year is up. You won't be charged again after your current period ends. If you change your mind, you can reactivate your account later by signing back in and choosing a plan.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

If you're having trouble signing in, make sure you're using the correct email address and password. If you've forgotten your password, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page to reset it. DAZN will send a reset link to your email.

If a live event won't play, check your internet connection — streaming requires a stable, reasonably fast connection. Try closing the app and reopening it, or try watching on a different device to see if the problem is device-specific. If you're still having trouble, DAZN's support page for your country has contact options and a help center with answers to common questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I share my DAZN login with family members in another household?

DAZN's terms of service restrict account sharing to members of the same household. Sharing your login with people outside your home may violate the terms and could result in your account being suspended. Check DAZN's current policies for your region, as rules can change.

What internet speed do I need to watch DAZN?

DAZN recommends at least 5 Mbps for HD streaming and 25 Mbps for 4K streaming, depending on your region and the quality available. If you're experiencing buffering or poor picture quality, try closing other apps, moving closer to your router, or connecting via ethernet cable if you're on a computer or smart TV.

Can I read events to watch offline?

DAZN does not currently offer offline read for most content in most regions. You must stream events while connected to the internet. Check the DAZN app or website for your country to see if offline viewing is available in your area.

What happens if I cancel mid-month?

If you cancel during your billing period, you keep access until the end of that period. You won't be charged for the next month or year. Your access ends on the date your current subscription period was set to renew.

Does DAZN have a free trial?

DAZN occasionally offers free trial periods or discounted first-month offers, but these promotions vary by region and change over time. Check the DAZN website for your country to see if a trial is currently available. Some regions also offer a free tier with ads instead of a paid subscription.
