Sports Planner
Like a great line in a movie, Pay Per View has perfect timing.
It's there when you want it. No planning. No stress. It's easy and inexpensive. Just a wonderful indulgence you can have on a whim.
We also think it's one of the best things about Shaw Direct.
Choice with Pay Per View
Every Shaw Direct subscriber has access to this premium service.
You can choose from over 100 movies and events each month. It's a great offer.
Ordering is easy. A few clicks of your remote control and the best new release Hollywood movies are on your TV screen. If you like movies, you'll love Pay Per View.
Order with Instant Pay Per View
If you have a 300-, 400-, and 500-series receiver, you can order movies, events and adult entertainment instantly with your remote. We call this Instant Pay Per View (IPPV).
To use Instant Pay Per View, your Shaw Direct receiver must remain plugged in to a telephone jack. Once it's activated, you can use the remote to order movies any time you want.
You can order up to 15 minutes into a movie and one hour prior to the end of events. If you are ordering a movie or event on channels 205 or 956, you have up to half way through the movie or event to place an order. For example, if a PPV event is scheduled from 8 p.m. until 11 p.m., you can order the movie or event until 10 p.m.
After the show, the receiver reports the purchase to us. The charges for the movie or event will appear on your next bill.
Not-as-instant Pay Per View
What happens if your receiver isn't connected to a phone line? No problem. You can still order Pay Per View movies or events through our automated phone system ($1 service fee applies) or through a customer service representative ($3 service fee applies).
But the simplest way is to get a phone-line hook up and use your remote. The only fee is for the movie.
The system is very secure and reliable. If you do experience technical problems, we're here to help. Look for troubleshooting information on the Web site.
