Netflix wants to dissuade you from sharing its household plans with others that aren't in your household. Its latest effort to clampdown on password sharing is being tested in Chile, Costa Rica, and Peru. There will be an option to transfer viewing profiles into new accounts, whether as a primary account or someone else's. Or an option to add another viewer to their package at discounted prices of: 2,380 CLP in Chile, 2.99 USD in Costa Rica, and 7.9 PEN in Peru.

As The Verge pointed out, it seems the service is trying to find ways to crack down on this practice while also finding the means to grow its subscriber numbers.
