You can now add an \u201cExtra Member\u201d to your Max account, but it will cost an extra $7.99\/month. Here are the details.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-998559\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The days of widespread password sharing for streaming services are quickly ending.<\/p>\n<p>Various streamers have debuted up-charges for sharing your account with someone not in your household. And starting today, Max has followed suit.<\/p>\n<p>Max users who want to share their account with a friend or family member can do so with a <a href=\"https:\/\/help.max.com\/us\/Answer\/Detail\/000002598\">new \u201cExtra Member\u201d add-on<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It costs $7.99 extra per month. And that\u2019s true whether you have an ad-supported or ad-free Max plan.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the restrictions, per Max:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Extra Member Add-On is available to Max subscribers billed through WarnerMedia that are not part of the Disney+, Hulu, Max Bundle. The add-on is not available to subscribers billed through third-party providers, e.g. app stores and internet, mobile, and TV providers.<\/li>\n<li>Account owners invite an extra member to share their subscription plan with them. Extra members have their own account, password, and profile.<\/li>\n<li>Extra members need to be 18 years or older and be in the same country where the subscription owner signed up for Max.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>$7.99\/month is a tough sell for users of the ad-supported plan, since it only runs $9.99\/month anyways. Users of the premium, ad-free plan have more to gain.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-9to5mac-s-take\">9to5Mac\u2019s Take<\/h2>\n<p>Max seems to regularly have special $2.99\/month offers available. As a result, I\u2019m not sure how appealing this new option will be for viewers. Again, unless you strongly prefer ad-free viewing.<\/p>\n<p>In my experience though, ads on Max are way less intrusive than with other streamers. At least for HBO shows, I often get a few very brief pre-roll ads and zero that actually interrupt my show.<\/p>\n<p>Do you plan to utilize Max\u2019s new Extra Member add-on?
