New Netflix mobile plan for a cheaper rate

More Filipinos watch Netflix on-the-go

Netflix is taking steps to meet the Philippines' mobile streaming demand with a new plan that comes at an attractive price point. It rolls out a new mobile plan that is designed for those who stream only on their phone or tablet.

It can be availed for 149 pesos only

Netflix's director of product innovation Patrick Flemming described that plan as super competitive and compelling. He stated,

We’re enthusiastic to introduce the Mobile plan in the Philippines to make it even easier for anyone with a smartphone to enjoy Netflix. At home or on the go, now more people can watch all the shows and movies Netflix has to offer, wherever and whenever they want.

Flemming also explained that the new plan is not available to all regions. They only choose which countries they think would need or suit the plan. Based on their research, Filipinos use their phones when consuming online content twice as much as the rest of the world does. He pointed out that two out of three Filipinos use downloads on their phones to watch Netflix on the go.

For those who are interested, you may download the Netflix app or visit its official website to register for the mobile plan for PHP 149 per month.

The Netflix Mobile Plan lets users stream shows and movies on smartphones and tablets only, with unlimited access to Netflix's library of content. There will be no ads, and a user can create up to 5 accounts as mentioned. The Kids profile is still available, in case the user prefers parental controls when his/her child watches with the account.

Features of the new mobile plan from Netflix

Moreover, this plan is also equipped with a feature called Smart Downloads. This is for users who download content before their commute since it always recommends the next title that should be in their queue. 

This Mobile Plan has rolled out in other countries like India, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia.

There other three plans: basic for PHP 369/month, standard for PHP 459/month, and premium for PHP 549/month.
