XBOX ONE SETUP for TWO XBOX Ones - to share Xbox Live Gold Account and 5 Profiles to play...

Hello DreamedEmoStars,

Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are interested in learning how to share Xbox Live Gold between two different consoles. You will need to set up the account that has the recurring Xbox Live Gold subscription as the

home console profile on one of the consoles. The account will then share it's subscription and content to all other accounts on that console. We hope this helps!

Hello ChristianRuel,

Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are interested in sharing Xbox Live Gold on two different Xbox One consoles from your account to both of your son's accounts. This is not possible since the same Microsoft account
can only be set as the
home console profile on one Xbox One at a time. You can set up Xbox Live Gold on one of your son's accounts and have that account set up as the home console profile on the other son's Xbox One. This will allow you to pay for only one subscription, but still
have both of them have access to Xbox Live Gold. This feature allows them to share games as well. The article we provided will help you set up the home console profile. Be sure to let us know the results!

1) Is this true? If so ...

Yes, on the Xbox One, you can share your Gold membership will all the other accounts on your "home" console.

2) Can each profile be active (playing) on the same xbox simultaneously, e.g. two people playing Call of Duty online?

Yes, no problem.

3) Can each profile be active on separate xboxes simultaneously, e.g. two people playing COD each on their own xbox? (we have four in our house)

Two might be okay - the Gold account can play on any console, while any other account can play on the console that is designated as the "home" console. Playing on 4 consoles at a time would require two subscriptions.

4) Can the old individual profiles be brought under one single account and preserve all the profile names, achievements, friends, etc?

The accounts/profiles will still be separate - friends, achievements and such will stay with the respective accounts. It's just the gold membership being shared that changes - one subscription allows all accounts on a single
console to have access to the online multiplayer.

Greetings Lemming!

The relationship between an Xbox Live Gold account and the Xbox One, will no longer require you to setup each account with a paid subscription, as you would have to do on the Xbox 360.

Hi Guilherme,

Thanks for reaching out to us in the forums with this question. In relation to your question about sharing gold, if the account that holds the subscription is made the primary Home Console profile, then you are able to share Xbox Live Gold with any other
profile on the console. For further information about this, you can read the following support articles as they are pretty helpful:
