People will need to soon pay an extra $1 each month for one subscription service. Viz Media will raise the Shonen Jump manga app subscription price to $2.99 in January 2023. There’s no exact date as to when the price will increase, and the official site still shows the $1.99 price. Anime News Network reported that Paypal will also no longer be an option for payment. [Thanks, Anime News Network!]
Right now, the Shonen Jump manga subscription service is available in 10 countries, with Australia, Canada, Ireland, the UK, the US, and New Zealand among them. If people pay the fee, they get access to both currently running series like Chainsaw Man, My Hero Academia, and Spy x Family, as well as older Shonen Jump series and ones Viz has access to like past JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure arcs.
