Did you know Netflix is cracking down on password sharing by trialing new features in Central and South America?

Limited to just Chile, Costa Rica, and Peru for the time being, subscribers are receiving a prompt inviting them to add viewers who don't like in the same household for 2,380 CLP in Chile, $2.99 USD in Costa Rica, and 7.9 PEN in Peru.

"We’ve always made it easy for people who live together to share their Netflix account, with features like separate profiles and multiple streams in our Standard and Premium plans," the platform's director of product innovation Chengyi Long said at the time.

"While these have been hugely popular, they have also created some confusion about when and how Netflix can be shared. As a result, accounts are being shared between households – impacting our ability to invest in great new TV and films for our members."
