1Password pricing, price hikes and cheaper alternatives

1Password (1password.com) is a password manager. Flat per-plan monthly prices for Individual and Families (cheaper billed yearly), a flat price for a 10-member Teams Starter Pack, and per-user pricing for Business.. No free plan.

What 1Password costs

  • 1 person: $4.99/mo (Individual billed monthly: $4.99, the list price from 27 Mar 2026 (was $3.99). No free plan; 14-day trial only. The monthly price comes from March 2026 news reports, not the vendor page, which showed only yearly billing ($3.99/mo, or $2.99 with the 25% first-year offer).)
  • 10 users: $24.95/mo (Teams Starter Pack, 10 members included: $24.95/mo billed yearly (vendor FAQ: "$24.95 per month when billed annually"). The monthly-billed price was not read, so the yearly rate is used and understates the monthly cost. Business at $8.99/user/mo billed yearly x 10 = $89.90, so the Starter Pack is cheaper. Its admin scope is not fully confirmed on the captured page.)

Plan compared: Individual plan, 1 user, billed monthly. Prices are the subscription in USD per month on monthly billing (annual-only plans divided by 12) at the regular list price, ignoring first-year discounts, for one person using it on a computer and a phone, and for a 10-person team sharing passwords under central admin. Free plans count as $0 only when they cover the whole scenario.
