Why does my statement show NETFLIX MX* instead of just Netflix?

The 'MX*' suffix indicates the charge was processed through Netflix Mexico's billing entity. This is normal if your account is on a Mexican plan or billed in Mexican pesos (MXN).

Why does the NETFLIX MX* amount look different from my usual Netflix charge?

Netflix Mexico bills in MXN, so if your card is in USD, EUR, or another currency, the converted amount may look unfamiliar due to exchange rate fluctuations on the billing date.

Can I get a refund for a NETFLIX MX* charge?

Netflix Mexico does not typically offer prorated refunds, but if the charge was unauthorized or a billing error, contact Netflix support at netflix.com/contactus to request a refund review.

How do I cancel Netflix Mexico to stop NETFLIX MX* charges?

Log into your Netflix account, go to Account > Cancel Membership, and follow the prompts. Your access continues until the end of the current billing period, and no further NETFLIX MX* charges will occur.

How do I stop future NETFLIX MX* charges if I didn't sign up?

If you don't recognize the charge, log into netflix.com and sign out of all devices, change your password, then cancel any active Netflix Mexico membership and contact your bank to block further charges.

Why this shows on your statement

Netflix Mexico processes its subscription billing through a regional payment system that truncates the full company name into a standardized merchant code format, which is why "NETFLIX MX*" appears on your bank statement rather than the complete name. The "MX" portion is the ISO country code for Mexico, identifying this as a charge from Netflix's Mexican billing entity, while the asterisk is a standard separator used by payment processors to distinguish the merchant identifier from any additional transaction reference data that may follow. If you are a subscriber paying the monthly fee of approximately $219 MXN for your Netflix suscripcion mensual in Mexico, this shortened descriptor is the expected and legitimate way this charge will appear across most Mexican and international bank statements.
