How much is Netflix in 2023? A breakdown of the monthly prices for every subscription plan

With a vast library of TV shows, movies, and original programming, most people would agree that Netflix is an essential part of the entertainment landscape and easily one of the best streaming services you can sign up for. Like its competitors, the price of Netflix varies depending on which subscription tier and features you choose.

Netflix plans start at $7 a month, but to get the best video quality without ads you have to pay $20 a month. And due to Netflix's recent crackdown on password sharing in the US, it now costs an additional $8 a month to add an extra user to your account. The fee will only apply to users who live outside of an account holder's household.

This year, Netflix announced another major change to its subscriptions: After 25 years, the streaming service is shuttering its DVD-rental services in September — an early part of Netflix's history that became synonymous with its red envelopes. The platform also recently removed its ad-free Basic plan, which means the its cheapest ad-free plan now starts at $15.49 a month.

To help you decide which Netflix plan is right you, we've put together a guide detailing how much Netflix charges for each of its membership tiers.

How much Netflix costs per month

Netflix currently offers three streaming plans: Standard with Ads, Standard, and Premium, starting at $7 a month and ending at $20 a month.

It will cost more to add another user to a subscription plan. Standard and Premium subscriptions are the only plans that offer extra member additions. Standard offers only one extra member slot for $8 a month. Premium offers up to two extra members slots for $8 each per month.

Here's what you get with each plan, and how much each one costs.

While the lowest tier, Standard with Ads, does not allow you to download movies and shows to your device for times when you don't have internet, the remaining plans let you download content. The Standard plan allows you to download to two devices, and the Premium plan lets you download to six.
