Can a single household have multiple accounts?
My husband/wife would like to set up a MeFile account. My son or daughter might too. Are we allowed to each have a MeFile?

Inappropriate?Absolutely! But there are a few considerations/restrictions.
Cell phones and emails must be unique per individual.
To collect payment, each MeFile must be validated with a unique email address and cellular phone number (see this link for explanation on why).
PayPal accounts may be shared - for now.
We do reserve the right, if necessary, at a future time, to require unique PayPal accounts as well.
All of these restrictions are to help ensure advertisers that it is difficult and cost-prohibitive for one person to create and manage multiple MeFiles. -
Inappropriate?One more that came to mind:
An individual must be at least 13 years old to have a MeFile. -
Inappropriate?so everyone in my family must use the same paypal? -
Inappropriate?Hi Ken,
This has changed a bit since Trae's initial response. Thanks for asking!
YouData allows a maximum of two people per household. Each person must have his/her own account and those accounts must be accessed only by the respective owners.
You can use different PayPal accounts for the two MeFiles if you wish -- or the same PayPal account. Note that having more than 2 MeFiles associated with one PayPal account is one of the granular metrics that will land your account on our potential abuse list.
Thanks for using YouData

I’m happy

Inappropriate?I hope the household limit will be raised soon. Or maybe a family account where multiple individual accounts are linked (and maybe advertisers can send ads to the family as a whole). I enjoyed using youdata and hope to see an increase in the household account limit. I'm part of a family of 5 whom have all been told about youdata (by me :P).
I’m sad

Inappropriate?I would like to see the household limit raised as well. It would be nice if both my husband and daughter could join and use my Paypal account also.
I’m sad and frustrated
