The prices of Netflix plans in Brazil will increase from this Thursday (22). The readjustments on the streaming platform come two years after the last time the service raised prices in the country, in March 2019. Now, subscriptions will cost from R$ 25,90, for the basic plan, to R$ $55,90, on the premium plan.
Netflix argued, in an official note, that the increase in the value of the service happens to offer a better experience for users. The company also added the expansion of the platform's catalog of original series and films, both made in Brazil and abroad. In addition, the company must invest in the games sector, games related to original titles, 'Stranger Things'.

"We know that subscribers have never had so many options when it comes to entertainment - and we are more committed than ever to deliver an experience that not only meets, but exceeds their expectations," says the streaming platform's unified statement.

It is worth mentioning that the increase is both for those who were already subscribers and for those old accounts. Those who already had the streaming service will be notified about the new values within the next 30 days. Within an additional 30 days, these customers may decide to change plans or cancel the service. The exact date, however, depends on each billing date.

The announcement of the increase comes after Netflix sent shareholders a statement talking about the second half of 2021. In the letter, even with good revenue and growth figures, the platform fell short of what was desired and blamed the Covid-19 pandemic.
