How to share NordPass items on desktop devices

Introduction

NordPass allows you to share saved information with others, giving them access to your logins, passkeys, secure notes, credit cards, or personal info without manual entry.

 

This guide will explain how to share NordPass items with other users while using desktop devices.

 

Before you start

To ensure proper operation, please use macOS 14 version or later for Apple devices, Windows 10 version or later for Windows devices, or any Linux distribution that supports snap 64-bit.

Note: Sharing items is available only to NordPass Premium or Business users. Time-limited sharing is offered on all paid plans, but not for free users. Free users can view shared information, but any changes they make are visible only to themselves, not to others.

 

Here's what to do

  1. Open the NordPass application.
  2. Locate the item you want to share, click on the "three dots" button on its right side, and select the "Share" option
  3. Enter or select the recipient(-s) email address.
  4. If you wish to configure the permissions and expiry time for all recipients, click on the "Default Permission" and "Default expiry time" buttons and choose your preferred ones.
  5. Alternatively, you can change the sharing settings near the recipient to set different permissions and expiry times individually.

  6. Next, press the "Share" button to finish the sharing process.

    Note: NordPass items can only be shared with other members if both their accounts are in the same data center: accounts in the U.S. data center cannot share items with accounts in the EU data center, and vice versa.

     

Additionals tips

  • The sharing state will change to pending until the recipient accepts the shared item. Once the item is shared, the recipient will receive a notification and will have to accept the shared item to have access to it.
