Here’s how to gift a Netflix subscription quickly and easily to make a friend or relative happy.
If you want to give a Netflix subscription for Christmas, a birthday or a special occasion, here’s how you do it.
It is certainly an original idea for a gift and above all useful and appreciated by fans of films and TV series, there is no better gift than a Gift Card that gives access to streaming services of the most popular platform and with the richest catalog on the market: Netflix.
Gift Cards to give a Netflix subscription are an excellent alternative to last minute gifts and above all they are very useful and allow those who receive them to save on entertainment costs.
How does a Netflix gift card work?
Giving a Netflix subscription is simple, the only prerequisite that the recipient of our gift must meet is to have an Internet connection and a device connected to the network. In fact, versatility is a great strength given that Netflix is accessible from a multitude of devices, not necessarily from the classic living room television.
Additionally, gift cards can be used both to open a new account and gain access to any of the three available plans (Basic, Standard and Premium), both to apply it to an existing subscription; in short, regular users of the platform will not be left out. The voucher then allows you to watch unlimited movies and series alone or in company using the Netflix Party function.
However, there are different types of cards depending on the amount we choose to allocate.
There are currently three solutions on the market:
- Gift Card worth 25 euros;
- Gift Card at the price of 50 euros;
- Gift Card up to 100 euros.
In all cases, Netflix will deduct the established amount from the Gift Card each month until the amount is used up and the voucher is suspended, which must be recharged to continue to have value.
Where to buy the Gift Card?
The Netflix Gift Card can be purchased online through the Euronics and StartSelect websites by receiving the code without having to go to a physical store, but it is also possible to buy it in-store by going to the points of sale of the main retail stores and electronic shops.
How to activate Netflix gift card?
Once you have purchased the Netflix gift card, all you have to do is hand it to the recipient who will have to scratch the silver band on the card to obtain the PIN code to enter on the site and, finally, activate the voucher long awaited.
At this point the practical steps to be performed are the following:
- Sign in to your Netflix account
- click on the profile icon at the top right
- click on “Account”
- click on "Redeem gift card or promotional code"
- enter the code on the Gift Card
At this point, the credit will be immediately reversed and it will be possible to use the subscription immediately by changing the selected plan at any time.
Warnings and useful information for use
In addition to the activation steps, it is good to know the Gift Card regulation to get further benefits from this purchase.
A very important thing to know is that Netflix Cards do not expire and can be used indefinitely. However, the Netflix gift card is disposable and therefore can only be applied to one account. However, if you want to renew it at the end of the balance, you can share the Premium or Standard subscription with other people.
Another important note: Netflix Gift Cards are non-refundable. If you reevaluate your gift nonetheless, you can safely keep the Gift Card for yourself since there is no obligation to enter any name when purchasing, it can also be redeemed by the buyer himself.
