Netflix Gift Card in Germany?

Re

My mother was recently in the US and has bought me a $ 25 Netlix GHift Card I'm just wondering if I can redeem them easily in Germany can it?

Me

Yes, why should not it?

Re

Other currency

Me

Go anyway. Companies do not care in which currency you give them money.

Ap

If i can just redeem them in germany, is that possible?

you'll have to try that!
It may be, but it also speaks against it.

Ap

Why should not it work?

because Netflix in the US is a different company than Netflix in Europe and must act accordingly economically and tax independently and therefore can't simply accept "foreign" gift card, as this does not flow into the revenue account and therefore not taxed here, as well as Netflix acts independently in terms of licenses for the films and series offered and these licenses must also be paid with the money that is taken here, but a gift card from the US is not taking any here

Me

I think you are wrong.
If I buy 100 euro credit on Amazon, Spotify or even Netflix, it does not matter in which country I make use of it. The internet is barrier-free and border-independent.
Am I wrong?

is "country" in this case a European country? Or a third country like the USA, Canada, Brazil, Japan etc? Already in the case of Amazon, I doubt this statement already, do you have your own practical experience?

YES!

As I said: Netflix is NOT the same as Netflix! These are completely different companies! The licenses, the offers and above all the economic is something completely different! Netflix Europe is a separate economic company that makes profits here in Europe, independently of other Netflix companies, and then has to pay these profits independently. Just because the data on the Internet can be accessed worldwide does not mean that a company that has a permanent headquarters would be "unlimited", that is nonsense. A company is a company! It has a company headquarters, has employees and always has to observe the laws, taxes and all other things that are in the exact country where the company is located. There are no limits!

PS:

just read in the terms of use at Amazon:

"Gift certificates can only be up
https://www.amazon.de/...amazon.de/ or
https://www.amazon.de/...zon.de/ref = rd_www_amazon_at /? Site redirect = at for products approved for coupon purchase. They are not on other Amazon websites e.g. Redeemable at Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.fr, Amazon.it, Amazon.co.jp, Amazon.com, Amazon.ca or Amazon.cn. "

This confirms my assumption that that does not work on Amazon, with all other companies, this will certainly be the same

Me

Right. I'm too old for this stuff!
When I was 20 years old, I was able to understand many things better. Today, a year later, it is not what it once was.
