Basic with Ads Users, How to Download Netflix Titles Offline
Nov 3, 2022, Netflix launches ‘Basic with Ads’, just $6.99 a month, which is seen as the platform’s much anticipated ad-supported subscription plan.
The new tier will cost $6.99 a month in the United States where it is now available, as well as in Canada, Australia, Brazil, France, Italy, Germany, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Spain, and the United Kingdom at various price points.
The company has said that “current plans and members will not be impacted” and that “‘Basic with Ads’ complements our existing ad-free Basic, Standard and Premium plans.”
The new tier will have most of what’s available with Netflix’s current $9.99 a-month Basic plan. However, the "Basic with Ads" option will include an average of four to five minutes of commercials per hour. Those ads will be 15 or 30 seconds in length and will play before and during TV series and movies.
