Before you choose
Confirm the current plan, features and renewal terms on the official website.
A changing on-demand catalog
Netflix offers original and licensed films, series, documentaries and other programming. Its recommendations and profiles help organize viewing around different interests, while the catalog changes as new titles arrive and licensing periods end.
Before subscribing for a particular show, check the current US availability and available seasons. A recommendation or title page from another territory does not guarantee the same access in your account.
Compare the features you need
Netflix plans differ in advertising, playback quality, simultaneous viewing and other account features. Choose according to the screens and devices you actually use rather than paying for a resolution your equipment cannot display.
Eligible titles can be downloaded on supported mobile devices under plan-specific limits. Kids profiles and parental controls help organize family viewing; review the ratings and profile settings after creating the account.
This is a paid offer
Netflix states that it does not offer free trials. You choose a paid plan and can manage or cancel online under the service’s terms. This page therefore does not describe the subscription as free or advertise a guaranteed introductory discount.
Review the total price and the household or extra-member rules for your selected arrangement. A subscription received through another company’s package may have different billing and management steps from a direct Netflix account.
Set up and test your account
Open Netflix’s official website, select the appropriate country and compare current plans. Create or sign in to your account, review the charge and complete signup if the plan fits your needs.
Create profiles, set parental controls where needed and add several titles to your list. Test playback on your main television and check download options on your mobile device. Keep track of the billing date and provider so changes are made in the correct place.

Can I start with a free Netflix trial?
