If you’re a new user, then you would have found out that Roku is asking for your credit card info to create a new account. The main reason your Roku asks for your card information is to create an account for Roku Pay. Using Roku Pay, you can easily purchase any channel subscriptions on your Roku device in style. However, this is an optional feature that you can skip out. Thus, you can create a new Roku account without linking your credit card, and the same is dealt with in detail here in this section.
