If you haven’t seen it yet, we recently made the announcement that starting July 1, 2026, the price of “Jellyfin Premium+ One Super Unlimited (with Ads)” will increase to $0.00 USD*. There has been a lot of enthusiasm regarding charge backs, and we’re simply blown away by the community’s response.
As we’ve had a high volume of inquiries, I’d ask if you could please wait until I’m off the support email shift to reach out about this issue. I’ve attached our schedule so you’ll know when it is safe to reach out.
Thanks, and happy streaming!
*Example price in USD. Exact pricing in other currencies may vary.

Can I pay in installments?
Ham and cheese sandwich.
This is outrageous! Im four times madder about this than I was before!
Joking aside, I do have a lifetime subscription to Emby, which shares a lot of the same code as Jellyfin. But the lifetime subscription was $99 which I viewed as a thank you donation to the developer(s). In the past 5 years or so it has been an excellent value.
Wait til John Jellyfin hears about this!
huh, funny. if Plex did something like this all the jellies would lose their fucking minds.
but no, y’all keep rolling around in the toxic waste dump you call jellyfin.
Read the post title and rushed straight to the comments?
I know I’ll be downvoted to oblivion but I’ve never had good luck with jellyfin. Plex has a lot of issues but in terms of just working, it’s been far superior ime.
Have you tried trying again?
Actually yes, I’ve tried jellyfin like 3 times now. I’m sure I’ll try it again.
I’d rather donate $750 to Jellyfin than pay $750 to Plex for Lifetime.

See, Jellyfin is just as bad as Plex. /s
I remember I got Jellyfin Lifetime for only $0.00 back in like 2018 before that started unlocking all their new features behind a nonpaywall
This is how you capitalize on someone else’s mistake. Made me actually laugh.
It reminds me of Apple’s response to Vista’s pricing tiers in 2007.
During the Apple keynote that year they said there was going to be an OS X Basic for $129, an OS X Premium for $129, and OS X Business for $129, and an OS X Ultimate for $129.
Few people even wanted vista for free
Vista pricing tiers were absurd. It still is, but vista was extra.
Any changes to Jellyfin Premium+ One Super Unlimited (without Ads) this time? They just doubled it last year, if it goes any higher I’m out. I’m not gonna watch ads.
I heard that it was going 10x 🤪. My suggestion get a pihole and don’t pay the, checks calculation $0.00, plus you get ad blocking on a lot of the web.
I’m never paying for that. Another Open Source software enshit…
Wait, never mind, my wife canceled out JF subscription to be able to buy q new purse and some shoes.
Carry on boys.
dammit we have to donate even more now
