Getflix: Price, features and plans

About Getflix

No prizes will be awarded for guessing which service Getflix are interested in connecting you with. Getflix is a VPN that specialises in connecting users with streaming video services that would otherwise be blocked. To be technical, it’s called Geo-blocking, and Getflix, like all other VPN providers, gets around it by re-routing your internet through a server in a different country, making the internet think you’re somewhere you’re not.

• Is using a VPN to access geographically restricted content legal?

  There are many legitimate uses for a VPN. However, the legality of using one to access geographically restricted content is a bit of a grey area. While you're not likely to attract the attention of the Australian Government, you do run the risk of having your VPN or streaming subscription cancelled. There is also the chance that a copyright holder may want to pursue legal action if you're found to be accessing that content in an unlicensed region. Keep in mind that the very nature of a VPN masks your IP and prevents your online activity, so it's not for us to say if and how the copyright holders would be able to identify you if you do choose to access their content without the proper licensing.

What are the benefits of using Getflix?

Getflix is very specific (hence the name) on getting you access to online video streaming services, so if that’s what you’re after then they might be the right fit for you.

How do I setup Getflix?

Getflix is easy to use, but the set up varies greatly depending on which device you want the service for. Thankfully, their website has really clear, easy to follow guides, so no matter which device you want Getflix on, there will be someone there to talk you through how to do it.

What operating systems can you use Getflix on?

Getflix is available on everything from the usual suspects (Windows, Mac and Android etc) to lesser used plug ins like Apple TV and Roku, and many of the latest generation of games consoles.

What are the pros and cons of Getflix?

They’re built around streaming, and since that is one of the most popular uses of VPNs, that is a huge tick in their column. Their website, however, is quite complicated and details a lot of information about what is and what isn’t available on certain devices. So if you know exactly what you want to watch with your VPN, then I would take a look at their website and make sure that what you want is completely covered.

What is a VPN and how does it work?

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a way to allow internet users to access content that is restricted by their location. In the case of Getflix, it can be used to access the US version of Netflix. It does this by re-routing your devices Internet Protocol (IP) address, through a server in a different country, which basically makes the internet believe you are in that country. It has a few other benefits outside accessing location restricted content, including increased security and no tracking.

  No. Getflix and Netflix are two completely separate companies. Netflix is the world's primary online only TV streaming service, and Getflix is a way for users in geo-blocked areas to access their content.

• Can I watch House of Cards on Getflix?

  No. It’s important to know that Getflix itself has no content, no shows and no movies, they are simply a route through which Netflix and other services can be access - If you want to actually watch Netflix then you would have to pay for a Netflix subscription on top of your Getflix subscription - Although Netflix operates in Australia now, meaning that you only need to subscribe to Netflix Australia to access their services.
