Setting up Netflix on your Smart TV or streaming device? If your screen displays a code and asks you to go to netflix.com/tv2, you're just one step away from streaming your favorite shows. This activation process securely links your Netflix account to your TV using the code provided on-screen.
Whether you're using a Vizio TV, Roku, Fire TV Stick, Samsung Smart TV, or gaming console, this guide shows you how to activate Netflix with ease.
You’ll need to visit www.netflix.com/tv2 when:
A code appears during Netflix app setup on your TV.

You need to reconnect Netflix after logging out.
You're switching to a different Netflix account.
If you’re setting up Netflix on your TV and see a prompt with a code, don’t worry — it's part of the activation process. This happens on most Smart TVs, streaming sticks, and consoles. You’ll be asked to visit netflix.com/tv2 and enter the code shown on your screen.
