Netflix currently allows its members to share passwords with anyone, and while this is expected to be supported for some time to come, doing so is going to carry additional fees, at least in some parts of the world for now. Chengyi Long, the director of product innovation at Netflix, announced in a blog post that password-sharing is "impacting our ability to invest in great new TV and films."

To address this, Long said Netflix has been developing a new pricing structure that will allow people outside of the same household to share passwords, but with an extra cost associated with it. In the next few weeks, Netflix will test this new feature in Chile, Costa Rica, and Peru.

"For the last year we've been working on ways to enable members who share outside their household to do so easily and securely, while also paying a bit more," Long said.
