If you mean purchasing content on Sky Q, that's here:

 

You can set up your Sky box to require a PIN when making a Sky Store or Box Office rental over a certain limit. Remember, you'll always need your PIN to make a Buy & Keep purchase.

 

To turn this setting on:

  1. Press services on your Sky remote, select Parental Control and PIN and enter your 4-digit PIN at the prompt.
  2. Highlight PIN Required for Purchases, then set the puchase limit before your PIN is required. This could be Always, Over £1.00, Over £2.00, Over £3.00, Over £4.00, Over £5.00, Over £10.00 or Over £20.00 (or the euro equivalent).
  3. If you don't require a PIN, switch it off by selecting NO.
  4. Press green to save the setting, then sky to return to your viewing.

If you want to PIN-restrict interactive purchases:

  1. Press services on your Sky remote, select Parental Control and PIN and enter your 4-digit PIN at the prompt.
  2. Highlight PIN Required for Interactive Purchases and change the setting to YES or NO to turn it on or off.
  3. Press green to save the setting, then sky to return to your viewing.
