Credential Sharing has become Accepted, Common and Extensive

Credential sharing is at record levels and there is no end in sight. According to industry research, Illegal sharing of subscription streaming services is a $25 billion-a-year problem for US operators. A Feb 2022 study by Leichtman Research Group found that 29% of all D2C streaming video accounts are being shared with others outside the household. Younger viewers are more apt to share and less likely to consider sharing to be illicit.

Credential Sharing Challenges

Understanding and acting on Credential Sharing is challenging. Acting aggressively and indiscriminately on credential sharing risks offending compliant subscribers and is unlikely to convert the borrowers. Further, detecting actual credential sharing and fraud is difficult. Legitimate and illegitimate behavior can look similar especially when considering the activities of common groups such as large families, commuters, and frequent travelers.
