Shared MasterClass: how to pay just €3.33 a month for unlimited access
Learn from the best in the world for less than the cost of a coffee a month by sharing MasterClass on Sharingful.
Summarise with AI
What if you could learn writing with Neil Gaiman, cooking with Gordon Ramsay, or negotiation with Chris Voss for less than the cost of a coffee? It's not a magic trick: it's what you get when you smartly share a MasterClass subscription. In this article, we explain how it works, how much you save, and why Sharingful is the safest way to do it.
MasterClass, the university of the world's best
MasterClass is not your typical course platform. You won't find an unknown coach recording PowerPoint slides from their living room here. Its instructors are literally the best in the world at what they do: Martin Scorsese teaches film direction, Serena Williams gives tennis lessons, Anna Wintour explains fashion and leadership, and Malcolm Gladwell breaks down the art of writing for the general public.
Each course is produced with cinematic quality, divided into short lessons of about 10 minutes, and accompanied by a downloadable guide. You can learn at your own pace, from any device, and switch subjects whenever you want. With over 200 courses in categories like writing, cooking, music, business, sports, science, and wellness, it's hard not to find something that hooks you.
The problem, of course, is the price. And that's where the trick that many are already using in Spain comes in.
How much does MasterClass cost in Spain in 2026?
MasterClass only offers an annual subscription, not monthly. You pay everything upfront at the start and have access for a year. There are three plans:
Individual Plan — $120/year (about $10/month equivalent, approximately €110/year)
For a single user. Only allows playback on one device at a time and does not include offline downloads.
Duo Plan — $180/year (about $15/month equivalent, approximately €165/year)
Allows account use on two devices simultaneously. Includes download for offline viewing. Ideal for couples or two friends who want to share.
Family Plan — $240/year (about $20/month equivalent, approximately €220/year)
Allows up to six devices in parallel, offline download, and full catalog access. It is the plan specifically designed for sharing.
Prices are shown in dollars and converted at the exchange rate at the time of payment. MasterClass includes a 30-day money-back guarantee on all plans, so if you're not convinced, you can get your money back without any problem.
Can you share MasterClass? What the official policy says
Yes, and not only can you: the plans themselves are designed for it.
MasterClass does not have separate individual accounts like Netflix with its profiles. What you have is an account with access from multiple devices at once, depending on the plan. The Duo plan is explicitly designed for two people and the Family plan for up to six.
What this means in practice: you share the access credentials with the rest of the group, and each person can watch the courses they want from their own device, in parallel, without interfering with others. There are no time restrictions or separate profiles to manage.
The only real limitation is the number of simultaneous devices. With the Family plan, six people can be watching different courses at the same time without any problem. For usual use —each at their own pace, in their free time— this is never an obstacle.
How much you save by sharing: step-by-step calculation
Here's the part everyone loves. Let's do the math.
Without sharing
The Family plan costs $240 a year, about €220 approximately. If you pay it alone, that's an effective cost of ~€18.30 per month.
Sharing among 6 people with Sharingful
If that same plan is shared among 6 people through Sharingful, the cost per person drops to €3.33 per month, or in other words, €40 per year.
| Pay alone | Share on Sharingful (6 people) | |
|---|---|---|
| Total plan cost | ~€220/year | ~€220/year |
| Cost per person | ~€220/year | ~€40/year |
| Equivalent monthly cost | ~€18.30/month | €3.33/month |
| Annual savings per person | — | ~€180 |
Three euros and thirty-three cents a month. For unlimited access to over 200 courses taught by the best in the world. It is, objectively, one of the best value-for-money propositions in online education you can find in 2026.
To put it in perspective: a weekend in-person course at any business or creative school can cost you between 200 and 800 euros. Here, for €40 a year, you have unlimited access to the entire catalog.
How to do it safely with Sharingful
Sharing a subscription among friends seems simple until it's your turn to organize the payments, remind everyone to pay, manage if someone leaves the group, or deal with the person who always "forgets" to transfer.
Sharingful solves all that. It is a Spanish platform that automatically manages cost sharing, payments, and the organization of shared subscription groups. You join an existing MasterClass family subscription (or create a new one), and Sharingful takes care of the rest.
What exactly does Sharingful do?
It manages payments automatically so no one has to chase anyone. It ensures that groups are made up of verified real users, not random strangers without any control. And if someone leaves the group, the platform finds a replacement so the cost doesn't fall on the others.
It's the difference between "sharing with the WhatsApp group of friends and hoping everything works" and having a solution that simply works, month after month, without drama.
Moreover, since it is the official Family plan of MasterClass —which is designed to be shared—, there is nothing that violates the terms of service. It's sharing as MasterClass expects it to be shared, just more organized and among people who don't necessarily know each other.
Is MasterClass worth it? What users think
The question everyone asks before subscribing is legitimate: will I really use this? MasterClass has impressive production, but the platform is not for everyone.
You'll love it if you enjoy learning out of curiosity rather than obligation, like well-produced video formats, and value the perspective of people who have reached the top of their field. The writing, cooking, music, and business courses have especially good reviews among the user community.
It may not be for you if you're looking for very specific technical training (advanced programming, structured languages, accounting), need recognized official certificates, or only consume content when you have a specific and punctual need.
What is universal: at €3.33 a month sharing on Sharingful, the threshold for it to be worth it is incredibly low. By watching two or three courses a year, you're already getting more value than any training alternative at that price.
