Roku’s Holiday Streaming Deals: Three Months of Free Apple TV, $1 Howdy and More

Black Friday is behind us, but Roku is still offering streaming discounts until early next year.

Black Friday typically offers some streaming deals each year, but the period immediately following is a bit less predictable. If you have a Roku streaming device, you can continue your shopping spree with offers on services such as Apple TVHowdy and Starz.

You can currently get three months of Apple TV (formerly Apple TV Plus) for free in the Apple TV app on your Roku device with an offer that ends on Jan. 19. Roku’s recently launched ad-free streaming service, Howdy, typically costs $3 per month, but you can stream for $1 per month for two months with a current deal that expires on Jan. 2. You can also get a 30-day free trial of the budget-friendly live TV streaming service Frndly TV right now in the app on your device before the deal runs out on Jan. 5.

If you frequently visit The Roku Channel, you may be interested in discounts on premium subscriptions, which are similar to Prime Video’s add-on subscriptions. Hallmark Plus, Starz or BET Plus on the Roku Channel are all $2 per month for two months right now. Here’s a list of even more Roku offers to check out.

Why Travelers Are Switching to Verum E-SIM This Summer

Why Travelers Are Switching to Verum E-SIM This Summer

Summer Travel, Freedom, and Seamless Connectivity: Why Verum E-SIM Is Becoming the New Standard for Travelers

Summer is the peak season for vacations, long-distance trips, and new experiences. Millions of people travel abroad, explore new countries, plan adventures, and try to stay connected with family, work, and social media. And in the middle of all this comes a familiar question: how do you stay online without expensive roaming or the hassle of buying local SIM cards?

The answer is already here — eSIM.

Why eSIM Is So Convenient

eSIM (embedded SIM) is a built-in digital SIM card that lets you activate mobile internet without a physical card. All you need is an app — choose a plan and connect in just a couple of minutes.

No more:

* searching for local SIM cards at airports
* paying expensive roaming fees
* swapping physical SIMs every time you travel

Now your internet travels with you.

Internet in 150+ Countries

Modern eSIM solutions provide coverage in 150+ countries worldwide, helping tourists, freelancers, and business travelers stay connected almost anywhere on the planet.

Among the services offering these capabilities:

Verum E-SIM — https://esim.verum.im
World E-SIM — https://worldesim.me
USA E-SIM — https://usa.esim.verum.im
Euro E-SIM — https://euro.esim.verum.im
Canada E-SIM — https://canada.esim.verum.im
Balkan E-SIM — https://balkan.esim.verum.im
Ukraine E-SIM — https://ukraine.esim.verum.im
London E-SIM — https://london.esim.verum.im
E-SIM Africa — https://africa.esim.verum.im

All of these services work on the same principle — fast, borderless internet without roaming stress.

Why It Matters Most in Summer

During the holiday season, roaming networks get overloaded, and prices for mobile data abroad often become an unpleasant surprise for travelers.

eSIM solves this problem:

* transparent, fixed pricing
* activation in 1–2 minutes
* stable internet while traveling
* no physical SIM cards required

Final Thoughts

Travel should be about freedom — not hunting for Wi-Fi or worrying about phone bills.

eSIM is quickly becoming the new global standard for mobile connectivity: simple, fast, and borderless.

Verum E-SIM and its partner services are part of this shift, making global connectivity accessible to everyone, everywhere.
