As an Xbox Live Gold member, you can share the benefits of Xbox Live Gold with others while theyre using your Xbox One console in your home. Friends and family can simply create their own account and gamertag on the console, which gives them the ability to enjoy Xbox Live online multiplayer gaming and access to entertainment apps.

Friends or family members with their own gamertags coming over to play? No problem. They can log in and play online multiplayer games, even if you sign off.

When you go to a friends house, youll be able to play multiplayer games on their Xbox One console, even if your friend is not a Gold subscriber. Once you log in with your Xbox Live Gold account, everyone using that console can access multiplayer games and entertainment apps for as long as youre logged in.

If you became an Xbox Live Gold member with Xbox 360, youre set for Xbox One. Your Xbox Live Gold membership for Xbox 360 will seamlessly become an Xbox Live Gold account on your Xbox One, and youll be able to enjoy Xbox Live Gold features on either console. You can even be logged in to both Xbox 360 and Xbox One at the same time. However, Home Gold benefits are exclusively for Xbox One.

With Xbox One, everyone in your home has a personalized account to enable powerful and personal experiences. Thats one of the reasons we created Home Gold. It means that your account and your gamertag are truly yours. You dont have to share your gamertag for multiplayer gaming with others in your home, or have recommendations for your children appear next to recommendations for the adults in the family. It also means you can introduce new games to and enjoy multiplayer games with visiting friends. When you buy one Xbox Live Gold membership, multiple people can enjoy the best benefits of Xbox Live Gold on your Xbox One at no additional charge.
