Pass rules you should know:
- Passes are one time, non-recurring purchases.
- Passes can be purchased to add short term access to Orange programming to any subscription that doesn’t already have Orange channels.
- You can upgrade from a pass to a recurring monthly subscription anytime—and we’ll credit you for any unused portion of your pass.
- 1, 3, and 7 Day Pass value will be prorated.
- Because our passes are short-term subscriptions, they cannot be cancelled or paused.
- Passes can’t be purchased with gift cards.
- We’re not able to add the Total TV or 4 Extras Deal, DVR upgrades, or Premium subscriptions to a pass. You’ll need a monthly plan instead.
- Passes don’t include Pay-Per-View events in the price, but you can purchase them separately and they’ll be added to your account to watch while your pass is active.
