There’s nothing better than lounging on the couch with your favorite food and watching your favorite TV show, right?

Well, Roku and DoorDash see it that way, anyway.

Roku users who have not recently signed up for Door Dash’s DashPass subscripti­on service can receive six compliment­ary months by simply requesting and redeeming a promotiona­l code.

If you have a Roku account — and most people who own a Roku streaming dongle or Roku-branded TV should — you should qualify for this perk.

Here are the stipulatio­ns that Door Dash puts on the promotion:

Valid only for U.S. users who: 1. have not previously subscribed to DashPass (whether on a free or paid membership) in the six months prior to their trial activation date; and 2. have received the redemption code directly from Roku.

To receive a code, you must be a Roku account holder in the U.S. with a linked streaming or smart home device.

If none of that fine print disqualifi­es you, then you’re all set for claiming the deal.

DashPass is Door Dash’s monthly subscripti­on service that offers unlimited deliveries from thousands of eligible restaurant­s with $0 delivery fee on orders more than $12.

If you’re a frequent food delivery customer, you know that those $4-5 delivery fees can add up quickly over the course of a month.

DashPass is designed to alleviate that with a one-time $9.99 monthly fee to receive unlimited deliveries from restaurant­s that participat­e in the program. Those are typically designated on the app with a green check mark.

And the Roku promotion is designed to give you six months of DashPass without having to pay the $9.99 monthly fee. This turns out to be a $60 savings if you keep the free trial for the duration of the period.
