Learn more about subaccounts

A subaccount is a Member ID email address set up under the account owner’s primary Member ID. Only the account owner can create and manage subaccounts. For example, the account owner would have a primary Member ID email and their spouse or children would have subaccount Member ID emails.

You may have up to 20 subaccounts (up to 10 active at one time) under your primary Member ID email. You can't delete subaccounts, but you can disable them.
Subaccount users can manage Phone features, get product support, and chat with an agent.
The Member ID email for a subaccount will not appear on the bill.
A few additional steps are required for creating subaccounts for any child under the age of 13.

Note: If you created a free AT&T email account after June 12, 2011, and you're not an AT&T Internet or DSL customer, you can't create subaccounts.

Learn about ordering permissions for subaccount users

U-verse TV and AT&T Internet account owners can grant ordering permissions to subaccount users who are 18 years of age or older. Learn how to grant ordering permissions to subaccounts.
Granting ordering permissions allows the subaccount user to make service-related purchases (like buying Pay Per View movies). These purchases are charged to you, the account owner, per your existing contract with AT&T.
