How to Add Multiple Users to Your Subscription

If more than one person in your house listens to satellite radio, paying full price for separate accounts is rarely the right move. Most providers offer family plans, second-device discounts and shared streaming logins that can cut the per-user cost dramatically.

Option 1: Add a Second Receiver

Adding a second hardware receiver to your account costs significantly less than a separate subscription. The second receiver shares your account but keeps its own Radio ID, presets and listening history.

1. Find the new receiver's Radio ID on channel 0 or 1
2. Sign in to your account portal
3. Choose 'Add a Radio' and enter the new ID
4. Pick the plan tier for the second receiver
5. Confirm and wait for activation

Option 2: Family Plan

A family plan is the most cost-effective way to cover multiple drivers. Each user gets full streaming access on their phone, and you can add multiple in-vehicle receivers under one account.

Option 3: Shared Streaming Login

Even on a basic single-receiver plan, your subscription includes streaming for a limited number of devices. You can usually share that login with immediate household members so each person can listen on their own phone or tablet.

Managing Devices in the App

The account portal lists every device authorized for streaming. If you hit the device limit, you can remove old devices — useful when someone gets a new phone or you sell a tablet.

Pricing Tips

• Always call support before adding a second receiver — promo rates apply
• Annual plans often discount second receivers further
• If a family member already has a free trial active, wait until it ends to add them

What Each User Can Customize

Each receiver remembers its own presets, recent channels and pause/rewind buffer. Streaming logins are individual — your spouse's app history won't show up in your app even though you share an account.

When Multiple Users Get Confusing

Account-level settings (billing, address, payment) are shared. If multiple household members need separate billing, separate accounts are still the cleanest path. But for shared listening, one account with multiple radios is almost always cheaper.

Removing a User

If you sell a vehicle or stop using a second receiver, remove it from the account to avoid being billed. The portal lets you do this in one click — and you can always re-add it later using the same Radio ID.
