Dollar here, two dollars there … Netflix in the United States, Canada, Portugal and Argentina He raised the valid prices in January. This is the first increase this year, but you can’t delude yourself that it will be the last. States and Canada are usually treated as test areas and at the same time the largest consumer markets – which will happen there, will be about around the world. And this is how it happens – after four markets Also Netflix in Great Britain will reach to user wallets.
Netflix raises prices
Changes in the Service Price List Polish Netflix users will not affect yet. However, the company is glad that globally in the last quarter of 2024 it recorded a significant increase in new subscriptions – as many as 19 million new users decided to join one of several available payment plans. As a result, it already has over 300 million viewers in the world who pay and … cry.
Increases in the United States are not extremely burdensome for the user. The cheapest subscription plan with ads instead of $ 6.99 It will cost only a dollar more. Users of the Standard plan will pay a little more – it will be $ 17.99 in counterattack to $ 15.49 before. The most expensive premium plan will mean an expense of $ 24.99 – previously $ 22.99.
Changes in the price list were tested for a month and, which should not be a surprise for anyone, the test results are so attractive to Netflix that The UK will also affect the increases at any moment. Thanks to this, Netflix is to “invest in new programs and formats, thanks to which users will have more valuable materials”, as the company spokesman claims. For Great Britain, these will be the first increases from October 2023 and, like changes in price lists in the USA, Portugal, Canada and Argentina, will affect all available subscription plans. Also here are about “symbolic” increases in the amount of a maximum of 2 pounds in the most expensive subscription available. The new price list has been in force on the islands since February.
When will these changes reach Poland? Looking at previous years, Our country has always had at least a six -month interval between widespread increases in the largest European markets (Great Britain, France and Spain) and our region. The last increases affected Poles in August 2024, which gives just over half a year the difference between Great Britain and us. Will Netflix want to change the price lists in our region year after year? It will turn out in the following months.
It is also difficult to estimate how many increases in our country would be. Currently, the cheapest Netflix package costs 33 zlotys – if the price in Great Britain is growing by 1 pound and $ 1 in the United States, in Poland it will probably be a fee closer to 38-40 zlotys per month.
