X Pro

Legacy US web Premium+

US$40 monthly or US$395 annually

  • Legacy X help explicitly includes Pro in Premium+
  • Confirm the existing account's renewal amount and access

The X Subscription Premium

$30 monthly or $300 annually; currency unconfirmed

  • New Premium includes full Premium+ benefits for eligible connected personal accounts
  • Pro access follows from the documented benefit mapping; account access has not been tested
  • Organization-managed and affiliate accounts cannot use this personal-account connection route
  • Pro is bundled with subscription benefits. Legacy Premium and new Premium are different packages; the plan name alone does not establish Pro access.
  • Legacy US web Premium+ lists US$40 monthly or US$395 annually. The new Premium document displays $30 monthly or $300 annually before sales tax without explicitly naming the currency.
  • Within the legacy US option, twelve monthly payments total US$480 versus US$395 annually. Within the new displayed-dollar option, twelve monthly payments total $360 versus $300 annually. Confirm currency and eligibility before comparing the two options.
  • Existing subscribers may keep their current plan; the official overview says a completed switch is permanent. Confirm renewal and refund treatment, including any store-billed subscription.
  • The new subscription excludes organization-managed and affiliate accounts from personal-account connection. It should not be purchased on the assumption that it will unlock a client's managed account.
