There are two kinds of Friends & Family plan members: The primary account holder is responsible for payments and the only member able to add other users to the group membership, while secondary group members are added and/or removed by the primary member.

To become a primary account holder, you must join Friends & Family through the digital Microsoft Store. After joining, you can manage group members on your Services & subscriptions page and can fill as many or as few of the set number of seats as you’d like.

Currently we are piloting this plan in Colombia and the Republic of Ireland. Future countries/regions might be added in the next months. In Colombia, the monthly price is 49,900 COP. In Ireland, the monthly price is 21.99 euros.
