It looks like YouTube TV is running a promotion aimed at its subscribers to bring more people under its umbrella. Many YouTube TV subscribers received a free trial code that they can share with friends and family who’d like to check out the service for the first time.

The code is sent via email and contains a shareable link or code (or both) to make it easier for potential subscribers to redeem the offer. To offer the two weeks extended free trial code, you’ll have to forward the email to whoever you wish to benefit from the offer, or you could share the link directly.

We can’t confirm if these 2-week free trial codes are given to all YouTube TV subscribers in the US, but if you get one, make sure to share it with whomever you want fast. The promotion will only last until October 16, so those who are given these codes have five more days to redeem them.

Currently, YouTube TV offers access to more than 70 TV channels, including ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, AMC, CNN, Discovery, and ESPN. A cloud-based DVR service with unlimited storage that saves recordings for nine months is included in the $50 monthly subscription, which can be shared among six accounts.
