Greece’s streaming market pairs a strong free public service (ERTFLIX) with two telecom-backed pay-TV platforms, Cosmote TV and Nova, that split the Super League between them — priced in euros. ERTFLIX does a lot of the everyday work for free, and you mostly pay for football and the global catalogue. Here’s the setup that makes sense in a Greek living room in 2026 — tested per our methodology with Greek accounts and apps.

The Services Worth Paying For in Greece

ERTFLIX — The Free Public Layer

ERTFLIX is free, licensed and better than outsiders expect: ERT’s channels live, Greek drama and series, documentaries, films, news and a deep archive, plus events ERT holds rights to. It’s the main no-cost layer and covers a real share of everyday Greek viewing before you pay for anything.

Cosmote TV — Best for Premium Sport

Cosmote TV, from telecom OTE/Cosmote, is Greece’s premium sport home: much of the Super League, Champions League and international football, plus films and series, from ~€10. It’s essential if your football team’s matches sit with Cosmote; casual viewers can skip it.

Nova — Entertainment and Sport

Nova mixes entertainment, series and its share of Super League clubs, from ~€10. Because Greek football rights are split, Nova versus Cosmote often comes down to which platform carries your team — many committed fans reluctantly need both.

Netflix — Best General Catalogue

Netflix Greece offers the global library with Greek subtitles and a growing set of local originals, with an ad tier from €6.99. It’s the default all-round service; paired with the free ERTFLIX layer, most non-sport households need little more.

How to Build Your Greek Streaming Setup

  1. Device: Fire TV Stick 4K Max (≈ €69) via amazon.de or a local retailer.
  2. Free layer: ERTFLIX — €0.
  3. One core subscription: Netflix for the global library.
  4. Football: add Cosmote TV or Nova based on which platform carries your team — or both if you follow the whole Super League.
  5. Traveling: your Greek subscriptions follow you in the EU under portability rules; add a VPN for streaming for privacy on hotel Wi-Fi.

Football tip: before subscribing, check which of Cosmote TV or Nova holds your club's home matches this season — the split is by club, so the "right" platform depends on your team. See how geo-blocking works for why catalogues change abroad.

For Greece in 2026: a Fire TV Stick 4K Max, the free ERTFLIX layer, and Netflix as your paid core is the strongest value stack.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best streaming device in Greece?

The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max — ERTFLIX, Cosmote TV, Nova, Netflix and Prime Video all have apps on it, it works in Greek, and Greek buyers order it on amazon.de, which ships to Greece. It plays every major Greek service smoothly, which makes it the easiest all-round pick for a Greek living room.

Is ERTFLIX free in Greece?

Yes. ERTFLIX is public broadcaster ERT's streaming platform, free and licensed, with ERT's channels live, Greek series and drama, documentaries, films, news and a large archive. It is the main no-cost licensed layer in Greece and the anchor of any Greek streaming setup, alongside the paid telecom platforms for sport.

How can I watch the Super League in 2026?

Greek Super League football rights are split between Cosmote TV and Nova — most clubs' home matches sit with one platform or the other, so following every game can need both. Rights are set per club and cycle, so check which platform carries your team before subscribing, from around €10/month per service.

What is the difference between Cosmote TV and Nova?

Both are Greek pay-TV platforms with sport and entertainment. Cosmote TV (from telecom OTE/Cosmote) is strongest for premium sport including football and Champions League, while Nova mixes entertainment, series and its share of Super League clubs. Which you pick usually depends on which platform holds your football team's matches.

Does my Greek subscription work abroad in the EU?

Yes — under EU portability rules your Greek Netflix, Cosmote TV or Nova account keeps working temporarily when you travel elsewhere in the EU, with your Greek catalogue. For privacy on hotel or public Wi-Fi while travelling, add a VPN — it does not change which apps work.
