Vendor pricing page, bitwarden.com/pricing — read on 26 August 2026.
“Not published” means we did not find a renewal price stated by the vendor on the date we checked. It is not a claim that the price changes on renewal, and it is not a claim that it doesn’t.
Bitwarden Families is quoted as $3.99 a month, “Up to 6 users, billed annually at $47.88”. Filled to six people that works out at $7.98 per person per year, which is the cheapest per-head figure on this desk’s password-manager ledger.
The plan mechanic that matters: Families is $47.88 while Premium is $19.80 for one person, so the family plan stops being an indulgence and starts being arithmetic at three people. Two individual Premium accounts cost $39.60, which is less than $47.88. Three cost $59.40, which is more. Below three, buy Premium twice.
Bitwarden’s page describes the plan as six premium accounts with unlimited sharing, unlimited collections and organisation storage. Everyone in the household could instead use Bitwarden Free at $0, separately, and lose the shared vaults. Whether $47.88 buys anything you need is a question about shared logins, not about passwords.
Bitwarden Premium is $19.80 a year with no discount attached to it. 1Password's advertised price is a first-year rate, and the vendor's own footnote says so. Here is the ledger, the family-plan break-even, and the three prices we could not read at all.
