How to Watch Hulu in Ireland

Hulu does not sell its standalone streaming service in Ireland. A VPN can connect through the US, but Hulu may block the video if it recognises an address from a data centre.

USip gives your phone or computer a residential US IP address through a home internet connection in the US. If your TV supports Hulu, use the USip Smart DNS instructions for that screen.

For Hulu on its own, use hulu.com/welcome and select Sign up for only Hulu. See the signup and payment steps before choosing a plan. If you already pay for Hulu, log in with MyDisney, choose your episode and press Play.

What can I watch on Disney+ Ireland?

For a show you want to watch in Ireland, try Disney+ Ireland. Check that you are looking at the Irish page, particularly if a search shows you a UK offer in pounds. Hulu applies its own US viewing rules.

Does Disney+ have the same Hulu shows in Ireland and in the US?

Abbott Elementary is a useful example. The Irish listing shows five seasons, while Hulu’s US guide covers season six. Look for the season you want before choosing a service.

Check the Irish page when an offer appears in search. A Disney+ offer priced in pounds can be for the UK. Look up the show and the offer in your Irish account before you pay.

Before you watch Hulu in Ireland

  • Account. Read the rules for the plan you want. Hulu checks US location and may also ask about your household. Read Hulu’s location rules.
  • Payment. A card issued in Ireland does not meet Hulu’s direct card requirement. For direct card billing, have a US-issued card and its billing ZIP ready. Compare the payment options.
  • Device. Open the Irish catalogue on the device you already watch on. For Hulu itself, check that the Hulu app is supported on your phone or TV, or use a supported computer browser.

From choosing a show to pressing Play

  1. Find your show. Search the Irish local catalogue for Abbott Elementary. Open the season menu to see whether the episode you want is there.
  2. Check the Hulu plan. Using Hulu on its own? Read the US location rules and choose a payment method you can use before signup. Live TV also needs an eligible Home network.
  3. Connect your device. Add your USip profile to OpenVPN Connect on the phone or computer you will watch on. For a supported TV, open the Smart DNS guide.
  4. Sign up or log in. An existing subscriber can log in with MyDisney. For a new Hulu-only subscription, start at hulu.com/welcome and check the name of the plan before you pay.
  5. Check your subscription. After checkout, look for an active plan in your Hulu account. If a billing partner asks you to activate Hulu, follow its link.
  6. Play an episode. Search from your profile, choose an episode and press Play. If the player shows an error, copy the wording before opening the help section.

How to sign up and pay for Hulu in Ireland

If a search takes you to a UK price in pounds, open the Irish Disney+ offer to compare. For Hulu, add Hulu’s plan prices to the cost of one of the USip plans.

Card or PayPal

  1. Leave the Irish Disney+ offer if you want standalone Hulu. At hulu.com/welcome, scroll below the bundles to Sign up for only Hulu. Or open Hulu’s plan picker and check the Base Plans section.
  2. Give MyDisney the email you will use for Hulu. If it identifies an existing account, sign in. Otherwise complete the account form.
  3. For a US-issued card, enter the billing ZIP on the issuer’s records. An Irish Eircode cannot stand in for the US billing ZIP. If Hulu shows PayPal at checkout, you can select it there.
  4. Check the amount in US dollars, the renewal price and the plan name before confirming. It should be the US Hulu plan you chose.

Where can I change the card for my Hulu subscription?
