Just got married, and my wife and I would like to combine our accounts into 1 bnet with multiple wow accounts so we can benefit from each others mounts/transmogs/etc. We legally have the same last name, and can provide a marriage certificate. Are we able to do this? Thanks.
No, I’m afraid that is not something they will facilitate for you.
An adult is entitled to a single Blizzard Account and no other adult, with the exception of a minor individual that they are the legal guardian of. Otherwise it then becomes account sharing.
As Ekon mentioned, you cannot combine Battle.net accounts. Only one adult, registered to a Battle.net account may access it. We do not allow the sharing of an account, outside of a minor child that the registered user is the parent or legal guardian of to use the account.
I should mention, even if you could, mounts, transmogs, etc… are bound to the Battle.net account and do not transfer.
No, that can’t be done. Blizzard does not allow account sharing. The one exception is that a parent can set up an account for a minor in their name and let the minor use it (preferably with Parental Controls set up).
Only you are allowed to access an account registered in your name. We don’t recognize the transfer of accounts between individuals. Activities performed on your account are your liability.
You may not share your account or password with anyone, except if you are a parent or guardian, in which case you may permit one minor child to use your account. You may not use your account at the same time, and you are liable for activities conducted by the minor child.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and the use of your user name and password. You are responsible for all uses of your information, even if you don’t authorize them. Security of your account is your responsibility.
Let’s say that I have also seen my fair share of “breakups” on the forums and things have gone messy, from “simple” unverifiable cases of deleted gear, toons to “serious” cases like contested account ownership because one name is on person A, but person B is the one who has spent so much time onto it.
These rules are to protect you and everyone’s accounts*, for the best interest you should not think about sharing this. If you want you can always gift them nice mounts, pets or farm them together with happy adventures in Azeroth.
But don’t share the account.
This is semantics and I am not criticizing your post, just adding some clarification that the OP might find helpful.
Battlenet accounts belong to Blizzard, not the individual registered for it. They are not “possessions” subject to property laws in various jurisdictions nor are they joint marital assets.
That distinction has confused some folks who assume that if they own something their spouse had rights to it. Seeing as we don’t own our Bnet accounts that is not the case.
