can i add a channel to apple tv without having an apple device

I don't have an apple tv or iphone. Can I even add channels to apple tv? I'm on a shared TV with my roommate who uses a fire stick and I want to buy AMC+ for us but the main account for the fire stick is theirs. I installed apple tv and I pay for that but I can't find a way to link AMC+ to my apple account. All the answers just say to do it on an apple device that I don't own.

Unfortunately, at this time, the Apple TV app on Fire TV devices doesn’t support in-app transactions [2]. You will need to do the subscribing on a different supported device with the Apple TV app. Without that, it is not currently possible to subscribe to other in-app channels for the Apple TV app. Just Apple’s own Apple TV+ can be started on the web, not other in-app channels.


For access to AMC+ streaming service, AMC+ also offer their channel inside the Prime Video app through an Amazon account, or in the separate AMC+ content provider app on e.g. Fire TV for subscriptions directly with AMC+.
