- Netflix will roll out paid password sharing in the US by June end.
- Members can choose to pay to sub-accounts or boot out people sharing their accounts.
- Those switching to individual accounts from shred accounts will be able to transfer their profile information.
The inevitable is happening. Netflix has finally set a timeline to start charging US subscribers for password sharing. In a shareholder letter dated April 18, the streaming service announced that it would roll out paid password sharing in the US by the end of the second quarter of this year, aka by June end. That means you’ll soon have to pay extra for sub-accounts or ask friends and family members to get their own Netflix accounts.
