t by fees are being asked to pay more than was charged in initial tests -- that is, the fees got pricier during Netflix's official rollout. In Chile, Costa Rica and Peru, where these fees were first tested since last year, the average charge for an extra member subaccount was priced at roughly 25% the cost of a Standard plan in each country, on average. That means if Netflix were to stick to that practice, then each extra member subaccount in the US would cost between about $3.50 and $4 per month.
But Wednesday, Netflix launched the fees in the first wave of countries as part of its official worldwide rollout of account sharing. And in these countries -- Canada, New Zealand, Portugal and Spain -- the prices for extra members are meaningfully higher, sometimes twice as much. On average, Netflix set the fee for extra members in these first-wave countries at 43% the price of a Standard plan in each country.
And Canada, which is the market most closely linked to the US, is being charged the most: Each extra member is priced at nearly half what you pay for a Standard plan there.
