Netflix clamped down on password sharing, but don't despair! Adding an "extra member" is the official workaround. Wondering how it works? It's simpler than you think.
Essentially, you're paying a small fee (around $7.99, varies by region) to allow someone outside your household to access your account with their own profile and login. No more sharing your password and hoping they don't mess up your recommendations!
**Here's the gist:**
* **Head to your Netflix Account:** Log in via the website.
* **Find "Extra Member" Option:** Look for a setting like "Buy an extra member slot" or similar, usually within your account settings or plan details.
* **Invite Your Friend/Family:** Netflix will guide you through inviting the person you want to add. They'll get their own login and profile.
Adding an extra member is often cheaper than them getting their own full subscription. So, keep the streaming party going (legally!) without breaking the bank or sacrificing your viewing preferences.
