Among the most well-known online streaming services accessible globally, Netflix boasts 220 million members predicted by 2022. The million-dollar question then is: how much does a monthly Netflix subscription run? The table below divides 2024 Netflix memberships by available monthly options and price range.
Netflix Basic Plan
Netflix Basic is the standard plan of Netflix that costs $9.99 per month. For this much, you can get the entire list of Netflix shows and movies though you can only stream in standard definition on one device. The Basic plan also comes with the added provision of unlimited downloads on one mobile phone or tablet. This plan is suitable for people who prefer watching Netflix alone and do not need high-definition streaming.
Some key details about the Basic $9.99 per month plan:
- Embedded video with no SD quality or high-definition video available
- It is for watching on 1 screen at a time.
- Free download on 1 phone or tablet
Netflix Standard Plan
The Standard Netflix plan lets you watch movies in High Definition, and it’s priced at $15.49 per month. The Standard plan allows streaming Netflix content on 2 devices at once, good for couples or small households. The Standard plan also provides customers with the ability to stream videos in High Definition.
Here is what is included with the $15.49 per month Standard plan:
- Stream in HD
- Multitasking: watch on two displays simultaneously
- Two mobile phones or tablets for unlimited downloads.
Netflix Premium Plan
Currently, Netflix offers three main plans, and the highest-paid plan is the Premium plan with a monthly subscription of $19.99. Netflix Premium for instance allows users to stream videos on four devices at once, which is perfect for large families. The Premium tier also offers the streaming of content in Ultra HD (4K) and HDR image quality if the service supports them.
Key perks of the $19.99 per month Premium plan:
- Watch in high-definition and ultra-high definition.
- Four screens to monitor simultaneously
- Of course, if you want to listen to unlimited downloads on up to 4 phones or tablets
Extra Subscription Charges and Factors Associated with Netflix
The above-outlined prices represent the monthly subscription charges within the United States; the company may, however, charge slightly different prices in other countries. For example, Canadians are charged an additional one to two U.S. dollars per month for similar plans.
It is also important to note that the monthly prices above are for Netflix streaming plans that are on-demand plans. Netflix also provides DVD rental plans as additional charges per month in addition to the existing monthly subscription. The DVD plans cost differently depending on the number of DVDs customers would like to rent at any one time.
The only other fees that Netflix users are likely to face are sales taxes in certain states. The user is most likely to read the taxes imposed on the services they use where some areas have what people call Netflix taxes that amount to less than $1 on top of the fees charged.
Lastly, it must be pointed out that Netflix has increased subscription fees sometimes in the past. At the moment, the streaming service firm has not publicly announced any proposed price adjustment for 2024, but it always retains the possibility of raising charges slightly for the original subscribers. Nevertheless, in broad terms, Netflix continues to be relatively cheap entertainment, costing $10-$20 per month.
Ways to Cut Costs at Netflix
If you want to reduce the cost of Netflix each month, here are some handy tips:
Choose the Basic or Standard plan: all single people and couples, who are not eager to spend much money on a monthly subscription, will find the necessary number of options and the quality of the stream in the Netflix cheaper plans. For ordinary users, it is not necessary to switch to Premium if you do not require 4 simultaneous streams.
Downgrade if you don't use Premium features: Just because the package is still within the affordable range does not mean you should stick with Premium when you are not streaming Netflix on four devices at the same time in 4K.
Share an account with family or friends: Perhaps one of the simplest methods of cutting costs is to cancel your Netflix membership if you don’t have friends or family members to share the account with. When a plan is split the monthly fees can go as low as under $10 per person.
In conclusion, although the prices are between 10 and 20 dollars a month, some tips can be given to decrease the Netflix cost and still watch lots of TV.
