One person should own the payment method. Everyone else joins as a member, not as a second payer.

Write the owner’s name in the subscription row so the household knows who can cancel. A shared login with no owner becomes a charge nobody monitors.

If someone leaves the household, remove the seat the same day. Waiting until renewal keeps the higher price for another month.
