What is a Sharing Account for Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition?
A sharing account is a single Steam account that multiple buyers access at different times or simultaneously (if allowed by the seller). For Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition, sharing accounts are popular because they let you play the complete game—including all DLCs and expansions—at a fraction of the official price. Instead of buying the game for the full retail price (which can be hundreds of thousands of Rupiah), you purchase login credentials and enjoy the same content.
Who buys sharing accounts? Students, casual gamers, or anyone who wants to try the game before committing to a full purchase. It's especially common in Indonesia where regional pricing still makes the official version relatively expensive. Sellers on JoinBareng offer various durations: monthly, quarterly, or lifetime access. The account might be yours alone or shared among a handful of users, depending on the listing.
Sharing Account Price List on JoinBareng (June 2026)
Prices for shared Age of Empires II: DE accounts vary widely based on duration, whether the account is private or shared, and the seller's reputation. Below is a snapshot of current listings.
Remember that prices are set by individual sellers and can change as new offers appear. You can always filter by price range, duration, and seller rating to find the best match for your budget.
How to Choose the Right Sharing Account
Not all sharing accounts are the same. Here's what to consider before buying:
- Duration: Some sellers offer 7-day access, others monthly or lifetime. Think about how long you'll play. A short-term account is cheaper but you'll need to repurchase later.
- Exclusivity: A "private" account means only you log in. A "shared" account may have multiple users. Private accounts cost more but you won't face login conflicts.
- DLCs included: Most sharing accounts include all Aoe II: DE DLCs (Lords of the West, Dynasties of India, etc.). Double-check the listing details to be sure.
- Seller reputation: On JoinBareng, each seller has a rating and review history. Sellers with high ratings and many completed orders are generally more reliable.
If you're unsure, start with a short-term account to test the experience before committing to a longer period.

About JoinBareng
JoinBareng is a hybrid marketplace where verified sellers offer digital goods and services to Indonesian buyers. We started as a gaming-focused platform and have grown into a trusted destination for game top-ups, accounts, vouchers, and jasa (services). Unlike traditional e-commerce, every transaction on JoinBareng uses an escrow system: buyers pay securely, sellers deliver, and funds are released only after the buyer confirms satisfaction. This protects both parties and builds trust. We're not the biggest marketplace, but we focus on quality—every seller is manually reviewed and KYC-verified.
Tips & Common Pitfalls When Buying Sharing Accounts
- Chat the seller first – Before ordering, ask about login limits, whether Steam Guard is required, and what happens if you get locked out. A responsive seller is a good sign.
- Check account type – Make sure the listing says "private" or "shared" and matches your expectations. Shared accounts may have overlapping users causing login issues.
- Read reviews – Look at recent reviews for the seller. If multiple buyers report account bans or missing DLC, choose another seller.
- Never pay outside JoinBareng – Sellers who ask for direct transfers are violating our terms. Pay only through the platform to keep escrow protection.
- Screenshot the order – Take a screenshot of the listing details and your order confirmation. This can help if you need to dispute later.
- Allow for manual delivery – Some sellers deliver instantly, but many handle orders manually. Expect up to a few hours during peak times.
Is a Sharing Account Right For You?
A sharing account is ideal if you want to play Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition without spending the full price, especially if you're only playing for a month or two. It's also great for trying out the game or playing with friends casually. However, if you plan to play competitively for years, or if you want full ownership (modding, family sharing, etc.), buying your own copy on Steam might be better. Weigh the cost against your playtime: a single sharing account purchase is much cheaper than the official game, but a lifetime access account might cost more than a sale-priced retail key.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Assuming lifetime means forever – Some sellers offer "lifetime" but it's tied to their account ownership. If the seller's account gets banned, your access ends. Always check warranty terms.
- Ignoring region locks – Most sharing accounts work globally, but a few may be region-locked to Indonesia or SEA. Confirm with the seller if you're not in Indonesia.
- Sharing the password – Don't share the login details with others. Multiple concurrent logins can trigger Steam security measures and lock the account.
- Forgetting to log out – After each session, log out properly. Steam may mark repeated unusual logins as suspicious.
