Movies and TV shows streaming platform, Netflix, says it will be ending password sharing among multiple users starting from the first quarter of 2023.<\/p>\n
The move will require subscribers to pay extra charges for additional members to use one account. <\/p>\n
The development is part of the streaming giant move to tackle the issue of dwindling revenue. <\/p>\n
It’s also part of the steps the streaming giant plans to take in raising its revenue which has fallen drastically in the past few months.<\/p>\n
In recent months, the company has experienced low numbers of subscribers and plummeted stocks, and its reaction to the loss is to put a stop to the sharing of Netflix accounts password among multiple users.<\/p>\n
To effect the new rule, the company would give the primary account holder a code that other users will have to input on their device before having access to the account. The code will change every month to make it difficult for sub-accounts to continue using the Netflix account of the main user. <\/p>\n
The company has kicked off tests in Latin American countries. It includes a feature that identifies sub-accounts and encourages them to pay $3 for an extra add-on to allow sharing. <\/p>\n
In October 2022, the company stock fell to 60 per cent as a result of rising inflation, loss of subscribers as well as other new competition from other streaming platforms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
