PLUG in, log on, and you’re good to go.

Foxtel has been offering all kinds of great movie, television and sporting content for years - but in the past, you’d have to wait to install it before you could don your trackies and uggs, snuggle into the couch, and get amongst it.

Thanks to the new Now Box, that’s a thing of the past. This nifty streaming box plugs into your TV, allowing you access not just to Foxtel Now, but also other services like YouTube and Stan, which you can download straight from the Google Play Store. You can integrate your free-to-air TV as well so it’s all on one box with the catch-up apps, or even install and play the latest Android games.

Probably the best part of the whole deal is the fact you don’t have to wait for installation, which means you also don’t have to worry about getting dressed or making time to quickly spruce-up the living room. The Now box costs just $99, including free shipping (with next day delivery) in most metro areas if you order before 1pm.

Once it’s in your hot little hands, it’s ridiculous how easy it is to use. Basically, all you need to do is plug the Now box into a power source and into your TV, connect it to the internet, turn on your TV, follow the prompts and log in using your Foxtel Now details. You can register five devices at any time, so if you reach your limit, all you have to do is pick one to de-register and you can continue watching great content straight away.

If you’re a new Foxtel customer, you get two options. You can sign-up and start watching Foxtel Now for just $10 a month with a two-week free trial, or you can choose all the packs and get it free for the first two months. This is a great option if you’re not 100 percent sure the service is for you, because it gives you a chance to test all the channels with no obligation. If you don’t like it, you can easily opt-out before the trial period ends; otherwise, you’ll automatically click over onto the Foxtel Now plan you selected when you signed up.

The Now box marks the beginning of a new era for Foxtel customers.

“For the first time, Australians can watch Foxtel on their TV with a Foxtel designed set top box that is completely powered by the internet offering a no lock-in contract, affordable and flexible way to see Foxtel's exclusive content both locally produced and from the world's best entertainment brands,” said Foxtel CEO Peter Tonagh.

“Foxtel Now has already proven to be a hit with customers, offering the most flexible and affordable way to experience the best choice in live sport, new movies, TV and complete seasons.”

If you have any questions, you can join the Foxtel community online and engage with other customers to see trending discussions and new solutions.
