When you create a new ABC Account or sign in to a current TV provider to access content on the ABC app or ABC.com, you may be prompted to enter a 6- or 7-character activation code sent to the email address associated with your ABC Account.
Note: If you do not receive a one-time passcode email, be sure to check your spam folder.
Select the scenario below that best applies for more details:
