Netflix has announced the launch of the Netflix Card, a new pay-as-you-go option, allowing you to continue using the service beyond the free trial or enjoy your favourite films and TV shows without the hassle of using a debit or credit card, or a Paypal account.
Similar to gift cards for Amazon, Google Play or iTunes, Netflix’s Card offers £15, £25 and £50 credit, which can be redeemed via a unique code on the back. It can be used against any one of Netflix’s three streaming tiers, which include an SD option, HD service and a 4K plan (think House of Cards in Ultra HD).
Netflix says:
“Don’t have a debit/credit card or PayPal account? As of now that’s no obstacle. Simply buy the card and start streaming.”
If you’re currently signed up to a monthly plan but feel Netflix’s à la carte option would better suit you, the Netflix Card can be used on new and existing accounts. Argos, Currys, PC World, WH Smith, GAME, Morrison’s and Asda already selling the Card and more newsagents and supermarkets are expected to follow suit over the coming months.
