“We've always made it easy for people who live together to share their Netflix account, with features like separate profiles and multi-streaming in the Standard and Premium packages. While the concept is extremely popular, there has also been some confusion about when and how a Netflix account can be shared. So bills are shared between households – affecting our ability to payus to amazing new TV and movies for our members”, he says Netflix.

So the company is considering launching a trial model from Chile, Costa Rica and Peru that will have options that allow users to add an extra member or transfer the profile to a new account.

"The members in the preStandard and Premium will be able to add sub-accounts for up to two people they don't live with – each with their own profile, personalized recommendations, login and password – for a lower price: CLP 2.380 in Chile, 2,99 USD in Costa Rica and 7,9 PEN in Peru,” Netflix reports.

"Basic, Standard, and Premium members will be able to allow their account-sharing people to transfer their profile to either a new account or an Extra Member sub-account - keeping track of my viewing history, my list and personalized suggestions."

The company has not made decisions about all the Netflix accounts that are shared worldwide, but it is clear where it is going. It 's just a matter of time.
