Netflix is implementing its previously announced price increase in the United States now and in the coming weeks, reports computer news site The Verge. In the US, customers now pay $9,99 for Netflix Basic (one receiver and no HD resolution). Before the price increase, it was $8,99. In 2019, Netflix charged $8 for this.
Netflix Standard (two receivers and HD resolution) is now $15,49. Previously, the price was $13,99. Netflix Standard, unlike Netflix Basic, has been increased several times over the same period.
Netflix Premium (four receivers and 4K resolution) now even costs $19,99, the equivalent of around €18,13. Before the recent price increase, Netflix was charging $17,99 for its premium subscription. There have also been several price increases for Netflix Premium in the past, as The Verge shows here in a graph.
Netflix tries to justify the price increase, among other things, that it would offer more and more content.
The situation in Germany
For Germany, there is still no information about a planned price increase. The last price increase in Germany dates back some time. Netflix Basic currently costs €7,99 in Germany. For Netflix Standard you have to pay 12,99 euros and for Netflix Premium 17,99 euros. The applicable prices for Germany can be found here. In Ireland, on the other hand, customers even have to pay almost 21 euros for Netflix Premium.
Netflix is currently testing another way to generate additional revenue in a few select countries: through a modified subscription sharing model. Read more about it in
