Costco has introduced stricter membership policies, including mandatory scanning of membership cards at store entrances, in an effort to curb non-member access and sharing of membership cards. The changes aim to maintain loyalty among paying members, especially as the company reported significant revenue from membership fees. Following these updates, Costco has seen an increase in membership numbers, particularly among younger shoppers, and comparisons are being drawn to Netflix's successful crackdown on password sharing.
