Netflix on Comcast: Pricing, Bundles, and More
If you're a Comcast Xfinity customer wondering about Netflix integration and pricing, you've come to the right place. This comprehensive guide will walk you through everything you need to know about Netflix on Comcast, from pricing and bundles to how to access your Netflix account through your Xfinity cable box.
Netflix Pricing: What You Need to Know
Before we dive into Netflix on Comcast, let's first understand Netflix's standalone pricing. Netflix offers three main plans:
- Basic: $9.99/month, includes SD streaming on one screen at a time.
- Standard: $15.49/month, includes HD streaming on two screens at a time.
- Premium: $19.99/month, includes UHD streaming on four screens at a time.
These prices are subject to change and may vary depending on your location. Now, let's see how these plans integrate with Comcast Xfinity.

Netflix on Comcast: Integration and Pricing
Comcast Xfinity offers a seamless integration with Netflix, allowing you to access your Netflix account directly through your Xfinity cable box. Here's how it works:
- Netflix is integrated into the Xfinity X1 guide, making it easy to find and access your favorite Netflix shows and movies.
- You can search for Netflix content using the X1 voice remote or the Xfinity app.
- Netflix on Comcast uses your existing Netflix account, so you'll still be charged by Netflix, not Comcast.
While Comcast doesn't charge extra for Netflix integration, it's important to note that you'll still need a Netflix subscription to access its content. The pricing remains the same as the standalone Netflix plans mentioned earlier.
Comcast Xfinity Bundles: Netflix Included?
Comcast Xfinity offers various bundles that include premium channels and services, but Netflix is not typically included in these bundles. However, Comcast does offer a service called Xfinity Flex, which is a 4K streaming device that comes with a free Netflix subscription for the first year.
After the first year, you'll need to pay for your Netflix subscription separately. Here's a breakdown of the Xfinity Flex service:
| Service | Price |
|---|---|
| Xfinity Flex (first year) | Included with Xfinity Internet |
| Xfinity Flex (after first year) | $5/month |
| Netflix subscription (after first year) | Starting at $9.99/month |
Remember, the Netflix subscription you get with Xfinity Flex is a basic plan, which includes SD streaming on one screen at a time.
