Abstract: Novel tools and techniques for a bio-authentication for streaming service account management are provided. A system includes a user device configured to access a streaming service account associated with a subscriber, a database, a biometric sensor configured to obtain a biometric input form a user, and a bio-authentication engine. The bio-authentication engine may include a processor, and a non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions executable by the processor to determine whether an authentication event has occurred, obtain the biometric input of the user, determine whether the biometric input matches the biometric information associated with the subscriber, and allow access to a streaming service through the streaming service account.
