The basic subscription now costs CHF14.90, according to the company’s website. The new tariffs apply first to new customers, while existing subscribers will see the change introduced gradually, depending on their billing cycle. Netflix said it reviews prices “occasionally” as it continues to expand the value of its offering.

The last price adjustment in Switzerland took place in April 2024. Other streaming platforms, including Disney+ and Apple TV+, have also recently raised prices, citing rising production costs and greater investment in local content.

Under Switzerland’s Film Funding Act, which took effect last year, streaming services must invest four percent of their Swiss revenues in local productions. That amounted to CHF30.1 million in 2024, according to federal figures.
