'''Subscriptions''' are optional contributions that any user can make to the [[Star Citizen]] Project. Subscriptions contribute to the Star Citizen project development by funding behind-the-scenes [[:Category:Video series|shows]] like [[Inside Star Citizen]] in addition to [[Jump Point (magazine)|Jump Point]], the monthly digital magazine about Star Citizen.

This is not to be confused with any kind of subscription to play the game itself, as playing the game only requires a one-time buy of the game and doesn't require any subscription to play.

There are two ways to become a subscriber: through a '''Plan''' or through '''Passes.'''

A '''Plan''' is a recurring payment that you subscribe to through your Payment Processor. It can be a monthly-recurring payment or an annually (12 month) recurring one. Every time a payment is processed, your subscription is automatically expanded by one period (month or year, depending on the plan).

A '''Pass''' is a one-off payment that grants you Subscriber access for a limited time. They're an excellent alternative if you can't or don't want to subscribe to a recurring payment plan. Passes don't require a cash purchase, as you can buy them with Store Credit.

A Pass gives you exactly the same perks as a regular Plan and also contributes to your subscriber history.<ref name="subfaq" />
