Adding the shared payment requirement means you should only share your account with someone you trust. While each user can still use their credit or debit card, they can also access the payment information for everyone in the Household. When making a purchase, everyone needs to be careful to select the correct credit or debit card at checkout. Your accounts will otherwise remain the same, retaining their separate preferences, order history, and other details.

Prime Student members can’t share Prime benefits.

There’s always the option to remove members as needed, but if you choose to leave your household, there’s a 180-day period where neither adult can add members or join other households, so keep that in mind before making changes. 

To add users under 18, click on Add a Teen or Add a Child. Teens must have a mobile number or email to associate with the account; you must input a date of birth for both teens and children (under 13).
