How much do films cost at Pathé Thuis?
At Pathé Thuis you can rent or buy a film. When you rent a film, you can watch it for 48 hours after selecting the play button. Rental films are priced from €1.99 to €5.99. You buy a film if you want to watch it multiple times. After purchase, you can watch the film as often as you want in the Pathé Thuis apps. You pay a higher price for buying a film, as this film can be watched unlimitedly. The cost of a purchased film varies per film.
We offer films in both SD and HD quality and in most cases you pay €1.00 more for HD.
Our Premium films may differ from the (rental) price. These films have been added to the Pathé Thuis collection earlier and different rates apply to them. Any vouchers and discount codes are not valid for these films.

If there is insufficient balance on your bank account, you will receive a reminder from us per email after five days. You can use this email to pay the outstanding amount immediately. You can also find outstanding payments in your account.
In the meantime, your account will be blocked and you will not be able to rent or buy new films.
