Disney Plus Anti-Password Sharing: How Much Will It Cost? What To Do If You Are Using Someone Else’s Account?

Diney Plus has officially introduced the anti-password sharing in the United States. This update comes after Disney CEO Bob Iger announced that Disney Plus will launch its password sharing crackdown "in earnest" this month. Sharing an explainer on Wednesday, Disney revealed the cost that you will have to pay to share your subscription with others. Disney has referred to as an “extra member” for someone living outside your home to your current plan.

Disney Plus Anti-Password Sharing Launched In US: How Much Will It Cost?

If someone outside your household uses your password to access Disney+, the ad-supported Basic subscription will cost you $6.99/month, while the Premium ad-free plan will be priced at $9.99/month.

After launching in select markets recently, the paid-sharing features are now available in the US, Asia-Pacific region, Canada, Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Europe. Only one extra member per account is allowed. Additionally, Disney underlines that subscribers billed via third parties or through Disney Bundle plans will not be able to use the capability.

What to Do if You Are You Using Someone Else’s Account?

So, what should you now do in case you are using someone else’s account?  Well, you can simply create a new account and transfer your profile and watch history there. But first, all you need to do is sign up and pay for your own Disney Plus subscription.

Disney said that when travelling, you may receive a notification – “This TV doesn’t seem to be part of the Household for this account" when trying to watch Disney+.

"You can mark yourself as I’M AWAY FROM HOME, or select UPDATE HOUSEHOLD if you’ve recently moved and need to reset the Household location for your Disney+ subscription," Disney added.

"These selections will require a one-time passcode that’s sent to the email address associated with the account."
