Abstract

Subscription-based services have made digital platforms more accessible; their rapid rise comes with mixed blessings for users looking for low- cost deals. In this paper, we introduce Sab-Share, a web-based application that enables users to share subscriptions across different services, including OTT platforms, software, and gaming applications. Case in point is that the platform tackles problems of subscription affordability, underutilization, and accessibility, allowing users to easily connect, share, and manage subscriptions. This is made possible through an intuitive interface and robust backend architecture that guarantee secure transactions, user privacy, and compliance with platform-specific guidelines. Another focus of the study is its engineering progress, such as the establishment of secure payment systems, user authentication protocols, and subscription management functionalities. Our early tests show that the platform can save 4x individual costs and encourages collaborative consumption. This paper provide helps for society and the economy based on the extension of subscription sharing, using the platform to enable efficient resource use and exploring community-oriented resources to access digital services. Sab-Share is a futuristic more towards digital access, in a more sustainable and empowering approach toward users on digital economy.
