Whether you’re joining Netflix for the first time or returning after some time away, you will no longer be able to pay for a subscription to the streaming service through an in-app purchase on iOS. After experimenting with this big change earlier in the year by giving iOS users a way to bypass iTunes when paying for a subscription, Netflix confirmed this week that it has eliminated the ability to purchase a subscription within the iOS app altogether.
“We no longer support iTunes as a method of payment for new members,” a Netflix spokesperson told VentureBeat on Friday. Existing members will be able to continue using that method to pay for their subscription if it is currently active, though, but anyone signing up for a new subscription will be redirected.
