Netflix subscription: the price increase in France concerns (almost) everyone – Frandroid

The rise in the price of Netflix subscriptions in France concerns all users and not only new customers.

It probably did not escape you as the news had caused such a stir: the price of all Netflix subscriptions in France is increasing. The announcement dates from August, but so far, people already subscribed to the SVoD service had not necessarily yet seen this increase reflected on their bill. Gold, if you haven’t canceled since, you are paying more.

As a reminder, this is an increase of 12.5% ​​for all the formulas offered by Netflix, even the cheapest:

• Netflix Essential: 8.99 euros per month;
• Netflix Standard: 13.49 euros per month;
• Netflix Premium: 17.99 euros per month.

As recalled 01Net, you are spared the price increase if you access Netflix through an offer from your ISP or a bouquet Canal +.

Amortizing Netflix Investments

At the time of the announcement in August, two reasons had been put forward. Netflix no longer expects to recruit as many new users as in the past and therefore seeks to generate cash inflows with subscriptions already taken out. In addition, the company is planning very large investments in the future, whether to offer new visual content, but also to to establish itself in the video game market.

Netflix recently bought a video game development studio. and extended the experimentation of its gaming offers to more countries (not yet France).
