1Password is set to raise its subscription fees, with individual plans now priced at $48 per year, an increase from approximately $36, and family plans escalating to $72 from $60. This change will take effect for users at their next renewal after March 27th.
The password management service communicated these adjustments via email to its current users earlier this week. Despite this significant price hike, 1Password has not implemented gradual increases over time, which is a common trend among similar platforms.
In recent years, 1Password has introduced several enhancements, including features like phishing protection, which aim to justify the increased costs. Subscribers should also be mindful of potential discounts available during seasonal sales, such as Black Friday.
