+1 My wife would more likely use Zwift if it wasn’t 2x my fee.

Biking or running? I ask because Running is Free.

I would pay extra for my wife to ride but not a full price because she is a casual rider. I just signed up my 14 yo for the free account. I hope it does not take too long for them to get back to me.

I’m in exactly the same boat, and I think this is a pretty common scenario. A household has one serious rider who buys a smart trainer and subscribes to Zwift. Others in the house are curious, and might use it casually (2-5 times/month) but not enough to justify a second or even third account at $15/pop.
I would happily pay $5/mo. for an add-on account for my wife but $15 seems excessive given that she’s just not going to use it much. It seems to me that Zwift is missing an opportunity to sell additional accounts at a discounted rate to people like my wife who otherwise will not subscribe at all. Going forward, my wife is probably just going to use my login, I’ll just have to deal with the mixing of rider data, and Zwift won’t see any additional revenue.

She can have her own account and they allow up to 25km per month I think for free, it’s not much but if she is only going to use it once or twice a month it would be fine.

18 months later…and still no family plan? Looking into a “groovy” alternative with an actual family plan…could it be time to say goodbye to the big Z?

In the latest zwiftcast Steve Beckett, Zwift’s Chief Marketing Officer, said if he were asked 6 months ago he would have thought a family plan would be out by about now but covid-19 has gotten in the way.

The irony being the last month or so is exactly when it would have been most useful and appreciated.

+1 family account please

+1 family account!
All that is happening is I am sharing the app with my wife and its throwing the data off.
There is no way we are going to buy two separate accounts, clumsily handle the passwords and log out/in each time. Let us have profiles please. If you are worried about illegal account sharing, perhaps only allow 1 usage at a time or something?

We are three family members using a Wahoo smart trainer.
After holding out to see if the cost model will be adjusted I had to take a decision now purely based on affordability and sad to say we will not be continuing with Zwift.
Best wishes.

Do you get the feeling that a dead horse is being beaten? It doesn’t look like Zwift is going to listen to their customers and I don’t blame anyone for looking elsewhere.

+1 on family plan.
I’ve been a Zwifter for 5 years but currently evaluating other platforms where I can easily share my trainer with my wife (new to cycling) without paying twice. At least one other virtual platform has a ‘free’ mode so we’re working with that as well as trials but please Zwift: don’t let them tempt me away!

As above I am sharing with my wife and she is considerably lighter than me. Thank you for making a great product but without this feature I am going to look else where.

Added my vote here. Can’t justify buying two full accounts.

My wife and daughter wanted to try virtual cycling, but as Zwift don’t do a family membership plan I have moved over to ROUVY. Three people for less than the Zwift subscription cost.

Just have to chime in here because it’s absolutely crazy that there cannot be a “Family Plan” so my wife and children could also be introduced to the world of Zwift. The standard answer from ZWIFT is that “everyone needs to their own account like any online game”. That is bullocks. This is not an online game in that sense and having to swap bikes every time we want to use our one trainer is one glaring example of how this is different. It’s not as simple as just logging in to my xbox. Let’s address the need that clearly exists from paying customers. Why Zwift is so averse to addressing this is short sighted. Let’s get it together Zwift. Let’s make it easy to bring in family members to this Zwift world and stop being so greedy. Your user base and revenue will follow if you simply act on behalf of the customer.
