IPTV Account Sharing: What's Allowed and What Isn't
This is how sharing your IPTV login with someone outside your household works.
The limit is on simultaneous streams
Your plan's device count (1, 2 or 3) sets how many streams can run at the same time. See how this works. Sharing your login means whoever else uses it competes for those same simultaneous-stream slots.
Why sharing beyond your household causes practical problems
If someone outside your household streams at the same time you want to, you'll hit your device limit and see an authorization failure. That's an inconvenience for both of you.
What the Terms of Use say
See the full Terms of Use for the exact wording. In short, credentials are for personal use within your device limit and aren't meant to be handed out widely.
If you regularly want to share access
Consider a multi-device plan (see device tiers explained). A single-device plan isn't built for more than one stream at a time.
