Netflix New Zealand now costs roughly between NZ$17.99 and NZ$33.99 per month, depending on the plan you choose.

Current Netflix NZ prices

Recent price rises in 2025 bumped all the ad‑free plans up for Kiwi subscribers. As of early 2026, you can expect about:

  • Basic (1 screen, lower resolution): around NZ$17.99/month.
  • Standard (HD, 2 screens): usually NZ$20.99–25.99/month depending on when your account moved to the latest pricing.
  • Premium (4K, up to 4 screens): about NZ$33.99/month.

Netflix NZ does not currently offer a cheaper ad‑supported plan and remains fully ad‑free.

Mini “Quick Scoop” sections

1. Why prices went up

  • In April 2025, Netflix increased NZ prices by up to NZ$6 per month across plans.
  • The company framed this as funding more original shows, movies, and tech improvements.

Some Kiwi subscribers on forums say they’re now questioning whether they keep Netflix or switch to other streamers because of the repeated hikes.

2. How Netflix NZ compares

Other major services in NZ (like Disney+) have also pushed prices up in the last couple of years, so Netflix is no longer the automatic “cheapest big streamer.” Tech and entertainment sites still list Netflix among the top streaming options here, but often note its higher cost versus some rivals.

3. Tips before you sign up

If you’re mainly watching on a single TV and don’t need 4K, Standard is usually the sweet spot for most households. If you’re solo or mostly watch casually, Basic at ~NZ$17.99 can be enough, and you can cancel any time if you’re not getting value.

TL;DR: Netflix NZ is around NZ$17.99 (Basic), NZ$20.99–25.99 (Standard), and NZ$33.99 (Premium) per month as of 2025–2026, with no ad‑supported tier in New Zealand.
