An email will be sent to your email's inbox with your Passport information.
If your Passport is not yet activated, the Membership status will be listed as Unactivated, and there will be an option to activate by clicking a link.
If your Passport is listed as Expired or Disabled, you will need to contact your local PBS station to have them update your membership account. Contact information is available at PBS.org/stations.
If your Passport is Active, the Activation Email will also be listed. This email is the one you will need to sign in with on your devices to use Passport. If your activation email address for Passport does not match the email you are signed in with on your device, continue to the section below.
It's possible you are logging in with a different email address and password than what you used when you activated Passport.
