How many devices can I use an account on?

Whatever your formula, you can only share your account on 2 different devices. You can only share it with one person.

Actions to take to share your account

Console A will be the Play of the person who paid the PSN subscription and console B will be the Play on which you want to share the PSN.

On Console A :

  1. Go to your console settings
  2. Account management
  3. “Activate as primary PS4/PS5
  4. Disable main PS4/PS5

On Console B:

  1. Click on New user when you start your console and then on Create user
  2. Accept the agreements.
  3. Click Next when a PlayStation Network page opens
  4. Enter the login information of the person with whom you will share the service.
  5. Click on Connection
  6. Go to Account settings, click Account management and activate as main PS4/PS5.

On the Console A account you will still have the PS plus subscription but not as the main account but as a secondary account and on the Console B the PS plus account will be visible because it will be the main account. On Console B you must continue to play on your usual account. Your friend’s account that you added allows you to “broadcast” the PS Plus subscription. If you play on it you are going to play on its account that is not the objective.

To download a game with PS Now the process is the same, you each just need to put the account of the other by creating a new user. The owner of the subscription must set his friend’s account as the main PS4. The owner from his console on his friend’s account must go to his library, choose a game and download it. Once the download is complete, everyone returns to their account.

How much can I save with a shared account?

If you share the service with someone else, you’ll each be able to play on your own console. This represents a cost of €4.50 per person per month, and above all a saving of €54 per year compared with the individual offer. The ability to share PlayStation subscriptions offers significant financial flexibility and simplifies the management of entertainment expenses.

Sharesub is a platform that allows you to split the costs of all your subscriptions with your friends, family, colleagues. You can easily enter all your accounts in our interface, and send an invitation to your contacts or find co-subscribers. You will finally get your money back every month without having to do any reminders!
