Netflix has announced its intention to implement a "broad rollout" of its paid-sharing plan in the second quarter of 2023, including in the United States, as part of its efforts to crack down on password sharing outside of households. The announcement was made in the company's first quarter 2023 earnings report, where Netflix revealed its satisfaction with the results of the plan's initial launch in four countries.

The four markets where Netflix has already introduced the paid-sharing option are Canada, New Zealand, Portugal, and Spain. In February, Netflix introduced the "buy an extra member" feature in these countries, allowing primary account holders to pay an additional monthly fee for a sub-account that can be used by 1-2 people who do not live with them.

Netflix has been explicit in its guidelines that an account is intended to be shared within one household, which is defined as people who live in the same location as the account owner. The company has stated on its customer-help section of the website that individuals who are not part of the account owner's household should sign up for their own account in order to access Netflix content. However, Netflix members are still allowed to access the service while traveling using their personal devices or by logging in to new TVs, such as those in hotels or vacation rentals.
