How to access Netflix with a Canal+ subscription?

You hesitate to subscribe to a Canal+ subscription because you fear losing Netflix. Don't worry, you can absolutely take the plunge to take advantage of the streaming platform.

How to access Netflix with a Canal+ subscription?

Let's answer the question right away:yes, it is quite possible to have access to Netflix through a Canal+ subscription . But you will have to opt for a specific offer whose prices may differ depending on your age and your desire to commit or not. A short summary of what you should choose depending on your situation.

What Canal offer to get Netflix?

If you want to enjoy Netflix with your Canal+ subscription, not all offers are suitable. To tell the truth, there is only one:the Canal+ pack with Ciné Séries +. This offer not only gives you access to Netflix but also to other interesting platforms:

  • Canal+ :with cinema and series channels and access to original Canal creations;
  • Netflix :access to the whole catalog;
  • Disney+ :access to the whole catalog;
  • OCS :access to the Orange platform which has an exclusive contract with HBO new releases, available 24 hours after the US broadcast.

What is the price of the Canal subscription with Netflix?

The price of the subscription including access to Netflix depends above all on your desire to commit and in some cases, on your age.

Offers with commitment

All the offers with commitment on Canal+ are available both on TV and digitally . Once you have subscribed to the offer, you can take advantage of it on all the media available to you. Prices vary depending on the length of the commitment and you can get the first month free:

  • 12-month commitment:€39.90 per month (instead of €54.90)
  • 24-month commitment:€34.90 per month (instead of €49.90)

Non-binding offers

The non-binding Canal+ offer may be a little cheaper, but there is one major difference:it is only available in 100% digital. You will therefore not be able to see your content on your TV, unless you are equipped with certain tools.

  • Without commitment:€34.90 per month (instead of €49.90)
  • Without commitment - 26 years old:€24.95 (instead of €39.95)

How can Netflix be activated with this subscription?

Regardless of your situation, once the offer is subscribed, you must go through the activation link which is sent to you. You can find it in several ways:

  • in a confirmation email to your subscription;
  • via an SMS activation;
  • on the activation link in your customer area;
  • with the button "Enable Netflix" located on the Canal+ decoder.

If you already have a Netflix subscription, you must absolutely go through this email so that your billing is stopped, given that it is already included in your Canal offer. If you don't have a Netflix account or are using it for free, then you will need to create one with credentials.

Is the offer available on all media?

As seen above, the media on which you can enjoy Netflix depends entirely on the offer you have chosen. If you have opted for a 100% digital subscription in order to save a few euros, you will only be able to stream your content on smartphone, tablet or computer. However, the use of a Chromecast can allow you to overcome this small inconvenience.

If, on the contrary, you preferred the all-inclusive offer, you can then watch Netflix on the platform of your choice, television included. All you have to do is use the Chromecast for other platforms like Disney+, which is not yet available with all operators.
