## Plans

| Plan | Monthly | Annual | Billing | Notes | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| IdentityWorks Free | $0 | — | flat | Free tier included with Experian free membership. Provides single-bureau (Experian) credit monitoring and basic dark web surveillance. No identity theft insurance or restoration included. | experian.com |
| IdentityWorks Plus | Quote-only | — | flat | Mid-tier paid plan; monthlyUsd left null because current pricing is genuinely unconfirmed. Evidence is conflicting as of 2026-06-14: some 2026 reviews (Security.org, SafeHome) report Experian has consolidated to Basic/Premium/Family with no standalone Plus tier, while other reviews still list a Plus tier at $9.99/mo with dark web surveillance and $500K insurance. The official experian.com page surfaces only the Premium plan price, so no Plus figure can be verified from a primary self-serve source. | experian.com |
| IdentityWorks Premium | $24.99 | — | flat | Confirmed on official Experian page at $24.99/mo after 7-day free trial. Credit card required to start trial. Includes three-bureau credit monitoring, $1M identity theft insurance, dark web surveillance, social security monitoring. | experian.com |
