Profile Transfer Available For Extra Member Add-On Users
Today, Max announced new U.S. product updates with the introduction of the Extra Member Add-On feature, designed to give existing subscribers greater flexibility and control over how they manage sharing their Max accounts. This new feature also includes the capability to transfer an adult profile to the extra member account.

"Extra Member Add-On and Profile Transfer are two key Max advancements, designed to help viewers with a new way to enjoy our best-in-class content at an exceptional value, and offer subscribers greater flexibility in managing their accounts," said JB Perrette, CEO and President, Global Streaming and Games, Warner Bros Discovery. "These updates provide a simple way for subscribers to add-on a new member to their account, or for existing subscribers who have users outside of their household to smoothly, and in an uninterrupted fashion, transition their profile so that extra member can continue to access Max."
Information on these new capabilities can be found below.
· What is an Extra Member Add-On and how does it work?
o The Extra Member Add-On allows a primary account owner to share their Max account by inviting a friend or family member outside of their household to create a separate, standalone account with an adult profile under the same subscription. These Extra Members will have their own login credentials separate from the primary account. Extra members can stream from one profile on one device at a time and can enjoy all other benefits included in the primary account owner's base plan. Extra Member Add-On is limited to one add-on per account.
· How much does an Extra Member Add-On cost?
o This feature costs $7.99/month. The price is the same regardless of which tier an eligible user is subscribed to.
· Who is eligible to take advantage of Extra Member Add-On?
o Extra Member Add-On is currently available for users who subscribe directly to Max (excluding bundle subscribers). Max customers can refer to the Help Center to check availability.
· How do you purchase an Extra Member Add-On?
o Those who wish to take advantage of an Extra Member Add-On can purchase it directly from the Max subscription settings. Once an Extra Member Add-On is purchased, account owners can invite and manage their extra member via settings on web and mobile.
· What is Profile Transfer and how does it work?
o When an account owner invites an Extra Member to create an account, they can choose to transfer a single adult profile, bringing over the watch history, recommendations, and settings associated with that profile to their new Max account.
