Lifetime Plex Pass price change
Dear Plex Community,
We're reaching out with an important pricing update. Starting July 1, 2026, the price of a new Lifetime Plex Pass will increase to $749.99 USD*.
When we started Plex, we were movie and TV fans who wanted to make something great for people like us. We chose to offer a Lifetime subscription early on because we knew many of our customers would rather pay a higher one-time fee for software that they can depend on every day.
We've considered eliminating the Lifetime Plex Pass in the past, given that recurring subscriptions help us sustain long-term development, but we know it's still a valuable option for many in our community. So instead of retiring it, we're keeping it available at a price that reflects the real, ongoing value of the software we're committed to building and maintaining for years to come.
What's changing:
The price of a new Lifetime Plex Pass will increase to $749.99 USD* on July 1, 2026, at 12:01 AM UTC.
What's not changing:
All current Lifetime Plex Pass holders will continue to have access to all benefits and perks associated with a Plex Pass. (Nothing will change for you.)
Monthly & annual subscription pricing for Plex Pass and Remote Watch Pass will remain unchanged.
You have until 12:01 AM UTC on July 1, 2026, to

And no decent AppleTV client, other than the paid Infuse...
But they're shooting themselves in the foot...
These guys are truly high.
Honestly skip Plex if you don't have lifetime and buy Infuse Pro Lifetime for $100 from App Store (if you have citi double cash back, you can buy 20% off iTunes gift cards with your points). That'll net it for $80 lifetime.
Infuse Pro is hands down the BEST for iOS / Mac / AppleTV / iPad OS. No Android or PC support though, so take that into account. It also supports JellyFin, SMB streaming, Emby Pro and Plex, among others.
