- Favourites list: You can create a list of your favourite films by adding them to the “My List” section;
- Transactions: An account is necessary to complete a transaction on the site, such as purchasing or renting films;
- Newsletter subscriptions: You can manage your newsletter subscriptions directly from your account.
So, while not mandatory, creating an account will enhance your user experience on NFB.ca.
