In the title compound, C13H11N2+·C12H2Cl2N4.−, the N‐methylphenazinium cations have a dimerized structure with an interplanar distance of 3.42 (9) Å without effective overlap between the dimers. On the other hand, the 2,5‐dichloro‐7,7′,8,8′‐tetracyanoquinodimethanide radical anions form a one‐dimensional columnar structure along the a axis. In the column, there are two different kinds of modes in the overlap of the molecules: one mode has a slipped structure along a longer molecular axis of the molecules, whose six‐membered rings are shifted by 2.14 (8) Å, and in the other mode, the C(CN)2 groups are only overlapped with each other. The modes have interplanar distances of 3.11 (4) and 3.19 (2) Å, respectively.
