Read the content label before the sign-in prompt
The October 2026 help explains that a free account can view content marked free, while premium content requires an active subscription. Opening a free item while signed out leads to account access or a simple registration; opening a premium item can lead to a subscription offer instead.
Keep the programme page open as you identify the prompt. Successfully creating an account is not the same as buying a plan, and a sign-in screen alone does not prove that the programme is premium. Check the actual item label before deciding what action is needed.
Prepare verification without duplicating the account
The subscription instructions say new accounts confirm both email and telephone, using an email code and SMS or WhatsApp for the phone. Existing free accounts can choose a plan in the subscription area rather than creating another account solely to upgrade.
For a household member who already uses the free selection, first identify the existing account and intended programme. If a payment is pending, keep the actual confirmation state and method rather than starting another order. The public help describes different confirmation timing for payment methods; it does not prove that every method is available to every international customer.
Keep a named live transmission separate from continuous channels
The free-versus-premium help names selected religious transmissions, including Meditação da Palavra and Templo de Salomão meetings. It labels the times as São Paulo, America/Sao_Paulo. It separately says FAST channels are a paid monthly or annual-plan benefit.
If you want one meeting, open that transmission and check its free label rather than assuming every live channel is included. For a Canadian relative, convert the actual event date and São Paulo time to their city’s current zone. Do not reuse one fixed Brazil-to-Canada offset across seasons and provinces.
Match the session to the actual plan
The current free-account comparison lists one profile and one simultaneous screen, with no downloads. Registered devices and simultaneous playback are different limits. Two devices associated with an account do not mean two free sessions can run together.
Before relying on a trip, inspect the actual paid-plan and device terms if offline viewing is required; do not extend premium features to the free account. A useful viewing plan records programme, free or premium status, event date and zone, and the screen that will be used. This guide does not certify Canadian title rights, payment eligibility or third-party carriage.
