How do I use Netflix secret codes to unlock new content?

Good question, and thanks for asking it! Luckily you are in exactly the right place to find out more as we here at Screen OD can guide you through this simple process to ensuring you get to the good stuff fast.

First up it’s worth noting a few things before you get started… you need to have an active Netflix subscription in order to use the Netflix secret codes. This is not a way of getting free Netflix or of hacking free content, it’s simply a way of searching and filtering the content that is already on the streaming service in order to get you to what you want faster.

Secondly, depending on what country you live in you will get different selections of content on the Netflix secret codes. This is because Netflix has different catalogues in each territory and although much of the content may be Netflix originals, when there is licensed and bought-in content, this tends to vary a lot more from region to region. Therefore if you find there’s not much content in a certain section where you live, don’t despair, try another Netflix secret code and see what comes up – hopefully, there’ll be plenty to keep you going.

Adding a Netflix secret code

In order to add a Netflix secret code, you need to start with a base URL in Netflix.

Type the following: www.netflix.com/browse/genre/

After this, you can add any of the secret codes from the list below in order to create a filtered page only containing the types of TV shows and movies that are in that category. For example, if you want action thrillers you would add the code 43048 making https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/43048. If you type this into your browser (or for a shortcut just click on the links we’ve provided) you’ll see that you are instantly transported to a page that gives you only action thrillers like Crank, Under Siege and The Hunt For Red October.

Try a different code like 11714 and you are on a page that is entirely comprised of TV dramas like The Fall, The Stranger and Baptiste.

Clever right?

So now you have the formula to create your own Netflix secret codes, here are the numbers to use should you wish to filter your favourite content.
