Netflix is doing everything it can to avoid the chaos caused by the end of shared accounts, which has enraged tens of thousands of subscribers who have threatened to withdraw their subscriptions and try other alternatives.
While Netflix itself isn't exactly clear on what it wants to achieve in the new accounts, additional profilesusers have to calculate in order to find out which is the most affordable subscription.
Computer Hoy's colleagues have discovered something quite unique: Netflix itself is hiding the plan that (probably) will make you more profitable. It may be the answer, and you may not realize it exists!
Basic without ads, the Netflix strategy you should not be aware of.
The following screen will be displayed when you join Netflix to create a new account: Basic with ads (a 5,49 euros), Standard at 12.99, and Premium at 17,99.
Surely you think they are all. But there are four possibilities, one of which is the Basic lifelong. Where is she?
To see it, you must read the fine print and give the option to See all plans.
If you see "all plans", which are the same plus one additional, the Basic is the one with a 7,99 euro at 720 video quality, no downloads, and, naturally, no ads.
Netflix has "hidden" its Basic plan with advertisements, which was first introduced in October 2022, with little enthusiasm from users.
The basic advertising package, which costs 5.5 euros, is much cheaper than the basic one, with 8.
Nevertheless, for 2.5 euros a month, isn't it worth it to get rid of annoying commercials? For many people it is, as they are able to quit watching Netflix series.
Netflix doesn't want us to know. Although it's cheaper, it's better off with advertisers' money... especially if you want to avoid the repeat subscription loss that you've experienced in 2022.
