Why is the plan sharing option not displayed in my account?

Written by Giuditta

If you can’t see the option to share your Premium plan, even though you have a Premium, PRO or Platinum subscription, there are usually four possible reasons:

  • You are using an older version of the Blinkist app.
    Make sure your app is up to date in the App Store or Google Play. Premium Sharing is available on:

    • iOS: Blinkist app version 7.0.0 or later

    • Android: Blinkist app version 9.0.0 or later

  • You've already shared your plan with someone else.
    You can only share your subscription with one person at a time. If you’ve already invited someone, you’ll need to remove that account before inviting someone new. You can do this in your account settings on the website, as explained here: How can I remove an invited account from my subscription?
    ​

  • Your subscription is managed by your company/employer.
    You can only invite someone to join your plan if you signed up for a personal subscription. This option is not available to members of a Blinkist Business subscription.

  • Your subscription type doesn't include Premium Sharing.
    Premium Sharing is only available with personal Premium, PRO or Platinum subscriptions. It is not available with other subscription types or special offers, such as the Lifetime Pro plan. Because sharing isn't part of Lifetime Pro, the gift icon for inviting someone isn't shown on Lifetime Pro accounts.

If none of these apply, feel free to contact our Support Team via [email protected]. They will be happy to help you further.
