Runescape Membership Price: Plans, Monthly Cost & Price History

RuneScape membership is the paid subscription for Jagex's two games, RuneScape 3 and Old School RuneScape. A single membership applies to your account in both games, which unlocks members-only content that free accounts cannot access. The price depends on how long you pay for in advance, and Bonds offer a second way to cover membership.

The prices on this page are published by OSRS Wiki and were checked on Oct 12, 2026. Jagex adjusts membership and Bond prices from time to time, so confirm the current rate on the official RuneScape website before you pay.

A 1 Month Membership costs $14.99/mo. A 12 Month Membership works out to $10.99/mo.

The 12 Month figure above is an effective monthly rate. At checkout, the plan is a single yearly charge.

Monthly vs. Annual Membership

The 1 Month plan suits players who are testing the game, returning after a break, or only planning to play for a short stretch. It costs more per month, but you can stop whenever you like.

The 12 Month plan lowers the monthly rate. It makes sense if you already know you will play for the full year, since you pay for the whole period at once.

Here is what the annual plan costs in one payment:

The 12 Month Membership costs $131.88/yr. Compared with paying the 1 Month rate twelve times, it is the lower-cost option for a full year of play.

A Bond is a tradable item that provides 14 days of membership. Jagex sells Bonds, and a Bond can be redeemed for membership time on an account. Here is the Bond price:

A Bond costs $9.99 each. The rules for buying, trading and redeeming them are set by Jagex, so read the official Bond information before you buy.

• Plan length: The 1 Month and 12 Month plans have different effective monthly rates.
• Payment method: Membership paid directly, through a Bond, or through a third-party platform may have different terms.
• Taxes: Sales tax or similar fees may be added depending on your location.
• Price changes: Jagex has changed membership and Bond prices before, so check the current rate before you pay.

The prices listed here are in US dollars. Depending on your state and country, taxes may be added to the final charge. Jagex may also list different prices in other currencies, so the amount you see at checkout could differ from the figures above.

Free accounts can play both games, but members-only content stays locked. Jagex decides what is limited to members, and the list differs between RuneScape 3 and Old School RuneScape, so look at the official membership page for each game before paying. If you only want to try the members-only areas, the 1 Month plan gives you a short window without committing to a full year.

• Choose the 12 Month plan if you will play for the whole year.
• Use the 1 Month plan if you are unsure, so you do not pay for time you will not use.
• Compare the Bond price with the cost of membership before choosing a payment method.
• Review your plan before each renewal, since subscriptions continue billing until you cancel.
