Netflix doesn’t have a teacher discount that we could find. The route we could confirm for paying less is cash back: Fluz lists 7% back when you buy a Netflix gift card.
If you’ve been paying full price for the plan you use to wind down after a school day, here’s what Netflix says about its prices and its gift cards, and where the 7% sits.
How To Get The Netflix Teacher Discount
There isn’t a teacher rate to claim. Netflix’s home page and its Plans and Pricing help page have no teacher, educator or student wording in our read of them, and searching its help center for teacher discount brings up Plans and Pricing and an article on redeeming a Netflix promotion, with nothing for teachers in the results. We didn’t find a teacher program on Netflix’s own site.
What we did find is cash back on gift cards. Fluz says to buy a gift card to earn 7% cashback at Netflix, and the button below goes there. Netflix’s gift card terms say to redeem a card at netflix.com/redeem.
What Netflix Costs
Netflix’s home page says plans start at $8.99 and range from $8.99 to $26.99/month before tax. Its help page says it doesn’t offer annual, multi-month, or lifetime membership plans, so a gift card is paying for monthly billing, not a prepaid year at a lower rate.
What The Gift Card Terms Say
Fluz sells Netflix e-gift cards available for $50 that are redeemable online only, and its specifications say the card is non-refundable and does not expire. Netflix’s terms agree that gift cards and Netflix Balance do not expire and aren’t subject to any fees.
Two details in Netflix’s terms are worth reading before you buy. Gift cards cannot be redeemed for accounts that are billed through third parties, and Netflix Balances are limited to a maximum of $500.00 USD at any time. The terms also say some subscription plans, features or promotional offers may not be available for purchase using the Netflix Balance.
Other Cash Back Sources
Rakuten has a Netflix page, but it’s titled Netflix Coupons, Promo Codes & No Cash Back, so there’s no Rakuten rate to report. TopCashback’s address for Netflix loads its Entertainment & Hobbies category page instead of a store page. Rates change, so check the number on Fluz before you buy.
What We Couldn’t Confirm
We didn’t buy a Fluz card or redeem one, so we can’t say how quickly it arrives or whether it applies to every Netflix plan. If your account is billed through a phone, cable or streaming provider, Netflix’s terms say a gift card can’t be redeemed until that billing ends. Netflix may offer teachers something its help center doesn’t list, and the help center is the place to ask.
