Can You Get HBO Max in Australia?

If you’re considering using HBO Max in Australia, we have bad news for you

Given that it is geo-restricted, HBO Max isn’t available in Australia. But no need to worry; you can easily access it using ExpressVPN. 

Follow the steps in this guide to access HBO Max in Australia quickly.

How To Get HBO Max in Australia?

If you had given up on accessing HBO Max in Australia, do not worry as you are in the right place to be. Follow these steps:

• Subscribe to Express VPN (or any reliable VPN).
• Download and Open Express VPN on your device.
• Connect to the New York server (or any other US-based server).
• Open the HBO Max website.

Do keep in mind that after accessing the HBO Max website using a VPN, you’ll still need to have an HBO Max subscription before you can access any of the content available on HBO Max in Australia.

1- Get ExpressVPN for Netflix

You will need a VPN to change your Netflix region and stream Joker on Netflix. You can get three extra months free of ExpressVPN with their annual plan.

That’s 15 months for the price of 12. A single subscription simultaneously supports five devices and has a 30-day money-back guarantee.

2- Download the ExpressVPN app on your device

ExpressVPN supports almost all devices, including iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux, and more. You can also use ExpressVPN on your smart TV or gaming consoles using their smart DNS.

Why Do You Need a VPN to Watch HBO Max in Australia?

As we’ve mentioned, HBO Max is only restricted to locations within the United States because of the content distribution policies. So, if you were to ever try and access HBO Max in Australia, you would get a message like “This site can’t be reached” or “HBO Max isn’t available to watch in your location.”

This is where Express VPN comes in handy. It will change your IP address to a region within your chosen server location. And because HBO Max restricts you by analysing your IP address, it would be unable to do that. 

So, if you get Express VPN, not only are you getting access to HBO Max but also American Netflix content and American Amazon Prime content.

How To Watch HBO Max in Australia?

Once you have downloaded Express VPN and have managed to load the HBO Max website, you’ll need to have a payment option to subscribe to the service.

Given that HBO Max‘s geo-restriction is very strict if you try to buy the subscription service using a non-US payment option, it will give you an error.

So, the ideal workaround for this is to use an American friend or family member’s credit card to make the payment.
