Thanks for letting me know about this promotion @Tobonaut! My wife has an account now. Our new biggest problem is that the games I've purchased aren't available in a family library for her to use too We are enjoying Stadia. I suspect that many of the things we want are being actively worked on by Google- multiplayer cross-play, more games, more free games, more couch co-op games, wireless controllers to support laptops/phones, and Stadia to work passably in locations with terrible internet. --- By the way @codesplice, I had to type this entire post twice. If you get a forum notification in your email, click on it, click reply, type a post, and then go to post it, it'll ask you to oauth login and then your post is gone after the oauth login succeeds. This forum software is pretty janky in general, for example hitting @ to tag somebody is not smooth.

Thanks @codesplice. I wouldn't have bought a second controller if I understood that my wife couldn't have her own account. I'd have bought her another Premiere edition, especially when it was $30 off for a day. The purchase experience is unclear on that, and so are the docs around Stadia Families. Loving the service so far. Looking forward to when phone+laptop supports wireless controllers.

Hi, I bought the Stadia Premiere Edition that comes with a controller and a chromecast ultra. I got my invite code and used it to setup my Stadia account. I also bought an extra controller for my wife. After setting everything up, I can't seem to add a new Stadia account for my wife. She can't use my invite code because it's already been used. I can't seem to generate a new invite code for her. I asked a Google Stadia specialist by chat, but they told me I need to purchase another $130 Stadia Premiere Edition to get a user account for my wife. That doesn't make any sense, I don't need another controller or chromecast ultra. I just want a user account for my wife so she can save her own progress and achievements. I already signed up for Google Families and Stadia Families. This seems to allow me to share a family payment method, but I couldn't figure out how to invite my wife to Stadia. The Stadia Family Dashboard has a "pending requests" section, but I can't figure out how to request an invitation from my wife's gmail account. TL;DR how do I add a user account for my wife that's associated with her gmail account without buying another Stadia Premiere Edition because I don't need another controller or chromecast ultra. Thank you!
