TIDAL Pricing Comparison

TIDAL Cost for 12 Months: $143.88 vs a $39.90 Account

By:

Quick take

The $143.88 figure is 12 monthly payments at the current Individual rate, not an official prepaid annual package. The $39.90 option gives you a separate activated account, so price and account continuity both matter.

$143.88 vs $39.90: what changes?

Compared with 12 months at the regular Individual rate, the Jaideepass account costs $103.98 less. The official option lets you keep your existing TIDAL account and manage monthly billing directly; Jaideepass delivers separate login details for a fixed 12-month term.

Both are paid listening options. For a breakdown of lossless, HiRes FLAC and the old HiFi names, see what current TIDAL plans include.

Which plan fits your listening?

Choose by the number of accounts you need and whether keeping your existing account matters.

  • Individual: direct monthly billing on your own account.
  • Student: discounted direct billing if you qualify. Our Student discount comparison explains verification and cost.
  • Family: the official group plan when you need several member accounts; follow the Family plan rules.
  • Jaideepass: one ready-to-use account at a fixed price for 12 months, without managing a full Family group.

Before you switch to a separate account

If you have playlists you want to keep, plan the transfer before switching. You can move playlists with services such as TuneMyMusic, but listening history and recommendations do not transfer.
