How do I share my Google Play Pass subscription?

How to share your Google Play Pass subscription on Spliiit?

Google Play Pass can be shared on Spliiit via invitation, thanks to Google Family Group (Google Play / Family Library). Each co-subscriber uses their own Google account: no sharing of login details is necessary.

Google Play Pass provides unlimited access to over 350 games and apps, with no in-app purchases required to unlock included content (depending on the apps/games in question).

🔗 Sharing method: invitation via Google Family Group
👥 Number of users: up to 6 users max (owner + 5 members)
📅 Plans that can be shared on Spliiit: Family Monthly / Family Annual
💸 Cost: divided equally on Spliiit

Best practices for sharing Google Play Pass in 30 seconds

✅ Make sure you have the Family plan.
✅ Create a Google Family group (if you don't already have one) and add your co-subscribers (max 5).
✅ Each co-subscriber must accept the invitation (email or text message) to join the family.
✅ After the owner has registered, members may need to activate Play Pass in the Play Store.
✅ To avoid blockages: 1 person = 1 Google account (no shared accounts).

What to check before creating the share (important)

1) Are you already part of a Google "family"?

You can only be part of one family at a time. So if a co-subscriber is already in another Google family group, they will need to leave it before joining yours.

2) Do your co-subscribers have a compatible device?

Google Play Pass is managed in the Google Play Store, so you need an Android device (phone/tablet) to easily activate and use Play Pass.
