- MoviePass is officially back: The company announced Thursday it's relaunching nationwide.
- It's offering four monthly subscriptions, starting at $10 to watch one to three movies per month.
MoviePass is back nationwide.
The company $4 Thursday its movie subscriptions are now available across the US. For the past several months during $4, MoviePass was only available to people on its waitlist.
"By opening up MoviePass to film lovers nationwide, we are expanding our support of the movie theater industry by helping drive traffic to all theaters during the critical summer season," MoviePass CEO and co-founder $4 said in a $4. "Our newly designed service offers our members greater choice and flexibility for how they use their monthly credits, while continuing to encourage them to watch movies in theaters."
With its relaunch, MoviePass is offering four subscription plans. The standard plan costs $10 a month and lets you see one to three movies a month. With the basic plan, which MoviePass says is a best seller, you can see three to seven movies for $20 a month. The premium plan costs $30 per month for 5-11 movies. The pro plan, which is the most expensive, lets you see 30 movies a month for $40.
Subscriptions cost more for members in the Southern California and the New York metro area. All plans are good for standard 2D screenings at more than 4,000 theaters nationwide.
Each plan comes with a set number of credits, and users spend credits to see movies. The number of credits a movie costs depends on factors like whether the movie is in the morning or evening, or whether it's on a weekday or weekend.
Former MoviePass users will know its subscription offerings now aren't nearly as generous as they used to be. The company used to permit customers to $4 in a deal that struck many as too good to be true. The unsustainable model led MoviePass to burn through cash quickly, and its parent company $4 in 2020.
As for its comeback, its beta waitlist has been met with great interest, with MoviePass saying "overwhelming demand" $4 after it opened. The company later said it $4 in the first 24 hours.
