The streamer’s Standard plan will increase by $1.50, to $15.49 per month. The Premium plan is increasing by $2, from $17.99 to $19.99 per month for its U.S. customers. The Basic plan will go up by $1, to $9.99 per month.

In Canada, the Standard plan increased by $1.50 to $16.49 (CAD). The Premium plan increased by $2 to $20.99 (CAD), and the Basic plan is unchanged at $9.99 (CAD) per month.

The outlet notes that the streamer’s customer support site says that the new prices will apply to new members and will “gradually take effect for all current members.” Current subscribers will apparently receive an email “30 days before their price changes, unless they change their plan.”
