Go looking for a TNT Sports day pass in the UK and you won't find one, because TNT is sold by the month. NOW Ireland does sell one, the Sports Extra Day, with TNT Sports and Premier Sports for 24 hours. It only works in Ireland, but StreamLocator gets around that, and its free 7-day trial covers your first match, so that one costs just the €14.99 day pass (about £13).
NOW Ireland sells a Sports Extra Day that gives you 24 hours of TNT Sports and Premier Sports. It only works in Ireland, but StreamLocator gets around that. Start with a free 7-day trial.
No. You can buy Sky Sports for a single day in the UK, but TNT Sports only comes by the month. That catches plenty of fans out on a big Champions League night.
TNT Sports lives on HBO Max. It's £30.99 a month, or £25.99 a month on the 12-month Saver. Monthly plans only, no day pass, and live sport streams in up to 1080p.
This is where people get tripped up. NOW's UK Day Membership is £14.99 for 24 hours, and it only covers Sky Sports. TNT Sports isn't on NOW UK, not even on its monthly Sports Membership.
NOW Ireland is a different story, and it sells a day pass with TNT Sports on it.
There is a TNT Sports day pass, just not a UK one. It's NOW Ireland's Sports Extra Day, and the next section shows how to get it from the UK. Start with a free 7-day trial.

StreamLocator makes your connection look like it's coming from an ordinary home in Ireland. That's what NOW Ireland expects to see, so it plays. In your StreamLocator dashboard, NOW can be set to the UK or Ireland, so pick Ireland.
StreamLocator is a VPN-like service, and it works on smart TVs, consoles, streaming sticks, phones and browsers. Some devices get an app, and on the rest you add two short lines of numbers in the network settings or on your router.
Tried a VPN already? Fair enough. Most VPNs push lots of people through a small pool of company servers, and broadcasters have got good at spotting it. Our guide to why VPNs fail on live football explains more, and our NOW Ireland Sports Extra page covers the setup.
You buy the day pass on the NOW Ireland website. It takes Mastercard, Visa and PayPal, and many UK cards work.
If your card is declined, you're not stuck. An Irish Apple ID topped up with Irish Apple gift cards works for NOW Ireland's monthly plans in the app, so your fallback is Sports Extra Month, €17 a month, about £15. Same TNT Sports and Premier Sports, by the month instead of the day.
Get NOW Ireland's Sports Extra Day playing in the UK with StreamLocator, starting with a free 7-day trial.
The Sports Extra Day opens up TNT Sports 1, 2, 3 and 4 and Premier Sports 1 and 2 for 24 hours. Whatever's on those channels in your 24 hours is yours, for a one-off payment.
For the Premier League, TNT Sports has 52 matches, the same ones UK viewers get. Premier Sports shows 32 more that you can only watch in Ireland, including one Saturday 3pm kick-off a week, which no UK channel can show. Our guide to the Saturday 3pm blackout explains why UK screens never get those games.
Champions League nights are covered too. This season it's on TNT Sports, plus Premier Sports' first-pick Tuesday matches, and the day pass has both. The same channels also carry the Europa League, Conference League, LaLiga, Serie A and the Scottish Premiership.
The Sports Extra Day costs €14.99 for 24 hours, about £13. StreamLocator's free 7-day trial covers your first match, so that one costs just the day pass. After that, StreamLocator is about £3 a month on the one-year plan.
Our guide to NOW Ireland Sports Extra from abroad has more on the service itself.
Yes, and it's the same one. The Sports Extra Day includes Premier Sports 1 and 2 alongside TNT Sports, so one pass gets you both.
