Netflix increases prices for all plans by up to $2 per month
Netflix raised U.S. subscription prices by $1 to $2 across all plans to support expanded content and target $50.7-$51.7 billion revenue in 2026, the company said.
- On Thursday, Netflix updated its U.S. subscription pricing across all tiers: Standard with Ads to $8.99, Standard to $19.99, and Premium to $26.99, effective immediately for new members.
- Netflix justified the increases by citing its "wide range of entertainment" and plans to spend $20 billion on programming in 2026, roughly $2 billion more than 2025.
- Fees for adding an "extra member" also increased by $1, now costing $6.99 for ad-supported plans and $9.99 for ad-free accounts, expanding the per-household cost burden.
- New members see these rates starting Thursday, while existing subscribers will receive email notification a month before the new prices apply, rolling out over the coming weeks.
- Analysts project the hikes will lift U.S.-Canada average revenue per user 6% year-over-year in 2026, as Netflix repositions after abandoning its $83 billion bid for Warner Bros.
