Social Blade Pricing in 2026: Every Plan & Is It Worth It?

Social Blade's Personal Premium plans all bill annually. Bronze is $59.99 a year, which Social Blade shows as $5.00 a month. Silver is $149.99 a year, shown as $12.50 a month. Gold is $599.99 a year, shown as $50.00 a month. Platinum is $1,439.99 a year, shown as $120.00 a month. Stated annual savings are 17% on Bronze, Silver and Gold, and 20% on Platinum. There is also a free ad-supported tier and a separate prepaid Business API. These figures were verified on socialblade.com on August 6, 2026. Confirm current numbers before buying.

Yes, Social Blade has a free, ad-supported tier that shows public stats for any tracked profile across YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, TikTok and more, including rankings, grades, estimated earnings ranges and projections. The limits are that it's ad-supported, shows only about the last 14 days of tabular history, has no CSV exports, and requires login for some video-level data. Paid tiers remove ads and unlock years of history and exports.

All four paid tiers unlock the same core features: no ads, years of daily history, graphical charts, CSV/Excel exports and growth projections. The main thing that scales with price is how many favorite profiles you can track per platform (15 on Bronze, 25 on Silver, 100 on Gold and 500 on Platinum) plus larger bonus Business API credit allowances on higher tiers. For most individual creators, Bronze or Silver covers the real value; Gold and Platinum exist for agencies tracking many channels.

The Business API uses a prepaid credit model: you buy credits up front and each call deducts from your balance. A user-statistics call costs 1 credit per profile per platform, and a top-list page of 100 results costs 20 credits, with volume discounts on bigger credit packages. Calls that retrieve Social Blade's own accounts are free for testing. The catch is that the exact dollar-per-credit and package prices are only shown inside the logged-in developer dashboard, so you can't see them before signing up.

No. Treat them as rough ballparks. Social Blade calculates estimated earnings from public view counts multiplied by an industry-average CPM, which ignores actual RPM, geography, niche, sponsorships, merch and donations. The resulting ranges are very wide (a documented example spanned $44,000 to $700,000 per year for one channel) and geographic variance alone can shift the real figure several-fold. Subscriber and view counts are reliable; the money figures are not.

Social Blade is worth it if you want fast, cross-platform public stat lookups, long-term growth tracking and exports. Bronze at about $40/year covers that for most individuals, and Gold or Platinum suit agencies tracking many channels. It is not worth it if you need accurate revenue figures, competitor and outlier analysis, or content-strategy guidance, because it reports surface metrics rather than research signal.

If your goal is competitor and outlier analysis rather than surface stat tracking, OutlierKit is a focused alternative that starts at $29/month for the Hobby plan (about $16.58/month billed annually) and includes per-video outlier detection, channel similarity and AI metadata at every tier, with a free trial of 10 credits. Social Blade remains the quicker pick for cross-platform public stat lookups and rankings, so some people use both for different jobs.
