What changes will happen?

Changes will happen to Netflix in these countries: Chile, Costa Rica, Peru, Canada, New Zealand, Portugal, Spain, the US, the UK, France, Germany, Mexico, Brazil, Singapore, Australia and more. If you are a user in these countries, you can't share your account with others for free anymore. You have to pay more to add extra users (up to 2 users) to your account.

New features go along with paid sharing:

  • Any user on your account can move a profile to a new, paid-for membership.
  • Check out the Manage Account Access page to see which devices are connected to your account and sign out any that you don't want to have access to.
  • You can pay more to buy extra members who don't live with you.

How much do I need to pay to buy an extra member?

If you are a Standard plan subscriber in the US, an additional user outside your household can be added to the account for $7.99 per month. You can add two extra users for $7.99 each if you have a Premium plan. In the UK, the extra member can be added for £4.99 each/month.

If you are subscribing to Ad-supported plan or Basic plan, you need to upgrade to Standard or Premium for adding extra members to your account. That is to say, you have to pay an additional $13.49-16.49/month to share with one more person outside your household in the US if you are subscribing to the Ad-supported or Basic plan.

To know the pricing in different countries, please go to Netflix for more information.

What can users do?

If you use Standard or Premium plan, adding an additional user to your account will cost you an extra $7.99 per month. If not, you must pay an additional $13.49 to $16.49 per month. The cost of a shared account is much higher than before if you and your family members are not on the same IP address, especially if you have more than 1 family members who do not live with you.

In this case, creating a new Netflix account and subscribing to the $6.99/month Netflix ad tier would be a wise move. However, you can only watch Netflix on one device, and there are 4 to 5 minute advertisements every hour. By the way, if your region does not support ad tier, you will not be able to save money this way.

Therefore, you need to remove the Netflix limitations. You can share them with your family by downloading Netflix videos. This method allows you to download and share Netflix videos even using the ad tier. Additionally, unlike the Netflix app, which has a 48-hour usage limit, you can share the video with as many friends and family members as you want without any restrictions. To know how it works, read on.
