The pad creates extra friction that minimizes movement.

With this method, you don’t have to make any permanent changes to your couch or its cushions.

The downside is you could’t flip or rotate the cushions.

Use a Couch Cover

Another way to fix sliding couch cushions is by adding a couch cover.

You might also feel the cushions sliding around beneath the slipcover.

This is certainly an affordable option.

For example, use a non-slip pad in combination with a slip cover.
