TELUS Optik TV
TELUS Optik TV with 500+ channels and 4K content.
TELUS Optik TV puts live television, on-demand and your streaming apps behind one remote. Every new plan comes with the TELUS TV device, which runs over a thousand apps alongside the channels, so the box that gives you the hockey game also gives you Netflix without switching inputs. It runs over your home internet, which is why it is usually set up alongside PureFibre.
What Comes With It
A new Optik TV plan includes the TELUS TV device — a digital box with voice control, universal search across live TV and streaming together, personalised profiles for each person in the house, and cloud recordings kept for up to ninety days. The universal search is the part people notice: you search for a title once and it tells you whether it is on a channel, on demand, or in one of your apps.
- TELUS TV device included with a new plan
- Over a thousand apps alongside live channels
- Voice control and search across live TV and streaming together
- Cloud recordings kept for up to 90 days
- Personalised profiles for each member of the household
Optik TV or Stream+ — They Are Different Products
Stream+ bundles Netflix, Disney+ and Amazon Prime and ships with the smaller TELUS TV Mini. It is a streaming bundle, not a television service — there are no live channels in it. Optik TV is the full product with live TV, sports, news and on-demand alongside the apps. If you never watch live television, Stream+ may be all you need; if you watch sport or news as it happens, it is not.
Choosing Channels Without Overbuying
The most common mistake is buying a large package for two or three channels that could have been added individually. Theme packs let you add what you actually watch rather than a hundred channels you do not. Come in and tell us the handful of things you genuinely watch and we will build the smallest package that covers them, which is usually not the one that looks best on a comparison chart.
Internet Comes First
Optik TV runs over your home internet connection, so what your address can get for internet determines what the television experience is like. If you are setting both up at once we will check fibre availability for your exact address — including the unit number if you are in an apartment — before recommending a TV package, because the two decisions are connected.

Bundle Optik TV with PureFibre Internet

View StoreFrequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Optik TV and Stream+?
Optik TV is a television service: live channels, sports, news and on-demand, plus streaming apps, with the TELUS TV device. Stream+ is a streaming bundle — Netflix, Disney+ and Amazon Prime — with the smaller TELUS TV Mini, and it has no live channels. If you watch live sport or news, Stream+ will not replace Optik TV.
Do I need TELUS internet to get Optik TV?
Optik TV runs over a home internet connection, so the two go together in practice. If you are setting both up we will check what fibre is available at your specific address first, since that shapes what the TV experience will be like.
Can I record shows, and how long are recordings kept?
Yes. Recordings are stored in the cloud rather than on the box and are kept for up to ninety days, so you are not managing space on a hard drive or losing everything if the box is replaced.
Do I still get Netflix and Prime Video?
Yes — the TELUS TV device runs your streaming apps alongside the channels, and the search covers both at once. You do not switch inputs or change remotes to move between a channel and an app.
How much does Optik TV cost?
Packages and promotions change, and bundling with internet changes the answer again, so we do not publish figures that would be stale. Call us, message on WhatsApp or send the form and we will price the package that matches what you actually watch.
Optik TV Packages & Theme Packs Explained
Optik TV pricing confuses people because it's built in layers, and nobody explains the layers. Here's the whole system in four lines:
- Base package — your foundation: the essential channels plus the Optik experience (4K PVR, voice remote, app access).
- Theme packs— add-on bundles grouped by what you actually watch: sports, movies, lifestyle, news, family, South Asian, and other multicultural packs. You add the two or three that match your household instead of paying for 200 channels you'll never open.
- Premium channels — the à-la-carte layer for specific networks and sports passes.
- Streaming apps — Netflix, Disney+, and others can sit right inside Optik and on your TELUS bill.
The money move: start with the base, add one theme pack, live with it for a month. Adding a pack later takes two minutes; paying for unwatched channels takes years.
How to Check the TELUS Channel Lineup for Your Package
Channel numbering and lineup vary by region and package, so a printed list here would be wrong for half our readers within a month. The reliable way: tell us the channels your household can't live without — the specific sports networks, the news channels, the kids' content, the Punjabi or Hindi channels — and we'll map them to the exact base + theme pack combination that covers them for the lowest total. That's a five-minute conversation in any of our stores and it routinely saves people a pack they didn't need.
Optik TV Bundles: Pairing TV With Internet
Optik TV runs over your internet connection, so TELUS prices them as a pair — and the bundle discount is real. If you're already getting TELUS internet (or thinking about switching), adding Optik usually costs less than you'd guess, and far less than internet from one provider plus cable TV from another. Bring both bills in; the side-by-side takes ten minutes.
