New Daily DVD Rental Price

Redbox is making an announcement about its prices today, and we want to
make sure that you hear it from us first.

Starting on Monday, October 31, the daily rental charge for DVDs will
change to $1.20 a day.* The price change is due to rising operating
expenses, including new increases in debit card fees. Daily rental
charges for Blu-ray(TM) Discs and video games won’t change.**
Additional-day charges for DVDs rented before 10/31 won’t be affected,
either.

In order to make the transition easier, Redbox will discount the first
day of all online DVD rentals to $1.00 from 10/31 through 11/30.
Additional rental days will be $1.20.***

If you have any questions, please visit redbox.com/pricechange. There,
we’ve provided additional information.

This marks our first price change in more than eight years as we work
hard to keep prices low for our customers.

Thank you,

Redbox
