Hi, just wondering to use sharing do all members have to be on a monthly plan? Can for example the kids to be on prepay?

Cheers

Only the person providing the shared data needs to be on postpay. The users can be prepay.

For sharing voice calls, the sharer needs to be not just postpay, but on one of the unlimited calling plans.
