Yes, you can share your Netflix account with family in a different home, but you'll likely need to pay for an "Extra Member" slot for them, as Netflix restricts sharing outside your primary household unless you pay for additional users, or you can use the "Add an Extra Member" feature on Standard/Premium plans for a fee to give them a separate account. They'll get their own login and profile, with recommendations, viewing history, and My List, but the cost is added to your bill.
To add someone from a different household on Netflix, use the account management page via a web browser. Navigate to 'Manage Profiles' or 'Add a Member' section, then enter their details. Adding via TV apps is limited due to device restrictions.

Current customers can buy an extra membership to their main subscription for an additional $7.99 per month.
If you have multiple Wi-Fi networks, we may only associate one with your Netflix Household.

In a bid to boost subscriber numbers and revenue, Netflix has cracked down on password sharing, requiring you to pay for an extra member if they live outside your household.

After nearly a year of warnings and testing, Netflix has finally launched its password-sharing crackdown in the United States. Anyone sharing their Netflix account log-in with family members or friends who don't live at the same address will be asked to pay an extra $7.99 a month for each additional person.
No, Netflix does not offer a specific senior discount; pricing is the same for all subscribers regardless of age, though they provide different plans (with ads or ad-free) to choose from, and some budget-friendly strategies involve sharing accounts within household rules for savings.
The company recently enacted its official rules to stop password sharing in the United States, and those new guidelines state that Netflix is meant to be used only by the members of a single household, within that household.
Your account is meant for people living in the same physical household and accessing Netflix from the same location. If you want to share Netflix with someone outside your home, you can now add extra members: Standard Plan: Add 1 extra member for $7.99/month. Premium Plan: Add up to 2 extra members for $7.99/month each.
