UNDERSTAND THREE PARTAGE TYPES

I. Subscription shared via Link

This type of sharing includes Spotify, Deezer, Duolingo...

Subscription shared via link

When the participant joins your subscription, they will have access to your invite link they will have to join. This link will direct it to a new tab asking it to create an account or log in to its existing account. It will then be a member of your subscription group.

II. Subscription shared via Invitation Mail

This type of sharing includes subscriptions: Youtube, Netflix + 1 or 2 subscriptions, Microsoft 365...

Subscription shared via Invitation Mail

By joining your subscription, the co-subscriber will need to provide you with his email and you will need to send him an invitation to create his unique account with his own password. Being registered on your group will give him access to the service, but he will have no control over your account.

III. Subscription shared via ID

This type of sharing includes Netflix, Disney, Cyberghost, Dazn...

Subscription Shared via Credentials

As the owner, you need to provide your login details to enable your co-subscribers to connect to the service. Make sure you choose a one-time password. Once logged, the user will have access to the profile you have created. If the user chooses to leave, you will need to delete their profile.

  • Unique Profiles: Ensure each co-subscriber has their unique profile within the shared subscription to comply with Sharesub’s guidelines and enhance the overall experience.


With this sharing mode, the user can interact with your account and make changes to the subscription, but these will have no effect because they need your validation (mail alert, SMS, etc.). ). So you keep the control, especially as only you have access to your mail box.

If you do not wish to run the risk of this setting, you can choose to share only subscriptions that work via mail/link invitation.

GUIDELINES FOR EFFECTIVE SUBSCRIPTION SHARING

Key Guidelines for Subscription Sharing

  1. Validation of Subscription Sharing: Ensure that your subscription sharing is validated on the platform. Validation makes the subscription visible to other Sharesub users, indicating that it complies with the platform’s sharing policies. This is a crucial step in maintaining transparency within your group of co-subscribers.

  2. Communication with Co-Subscribers: Notify all your co-subscribers within 24 hours of modifying any login information associated with the shared account. This communication is critical to avoiding misunderstandings or access issues among users who share the subscription.

  3. Maintaining Unique Profiles: Ensure every co-subscriber using the shared subscription has their unique profile, wherever applicable. This practice not only enhances the user experience but also aligns with Sharesub’s policy of preventing unauthorized account sharing. By following these best practices, you help foster a trustful and compliant user environment on Sharesub.
