It’s free after you pay for it.
It’s a one-time fee that you pay monthly. One-time in that you pay one time a month.

This is Kumail Nanjiani's best work.
Go ad-free for free! Just give us your credit card number so we can charge it when you're not looking!
Seriously, why isn't this illegal yet? Why has this fallen to the private sector? WHY DO I HAVE TO GIVE A COMPANY MONEY IN ORDER TO STOP GIVING MONEY TO COMPANIES WHOSE SERVICES I'M NOT USING?
That's why with modern payment systems they give you a code and you send them the money. Credit cards made more sense before cell phones.
I wouldn't be surprised if that was illegal in EU.
Just had my yearly car maintenance at the local VW shop. They've started passing on the credit card processing fees to the customer. It's only like 3 or 4%, but it made me use a debit card instead of a CC. Guess that's where we're at now.
On the one hand I completely understand and agree with businesses that do this. CC fees take a huge chunk out of your bottom line.
On the other hand, I'm less likely to go there a second time unless I really, really, really like your business.
For my barber, I will gladly pay in cash.
There's a convenience store that charged me the 3% at check out. I left everything on the counter and went the extra mile or so and went to a normal grocery store.
It's not "free" it's Free™
Maybe $11.99, they won't actually confirm that till checkout
This is normal though. I get 25% vat added whenever i shop online outside my country. Other countries have less or more vat. They can't tell for sure, before you checkout because you may be ordering while not at your home country.
The really interesting question is, are they removing revenue from channels? Are you really supporting them by going adfree? Do the users who pay this still count as viewers of ads even though they don't see them?
Nitro users count towards ad views and show as regular users.. basically to count as a viewer you have to have the video running, doesn’t matter if the player or tab is muted.

Yes, they still count as viewers of ads and the streamer gets a small cut of the twitch turbo subscription money.
"free" as in "available"
yea, but at the top of the email it says "go ad-free for free"
Yeah, honestly this logic doesn't make sense
“If you pay for this subscription, we will stop showing you ads for free!” like- this is part of the subscription, how is it free lmao
Didn't it used to be that at the grocery store, if an item is advertised on the shelf for a different price than what it scans for, they give you something like half the difference? But there's no code of ethics like that on the interweb.

twich is for billionaires
Sooo... onlyfans lite
Now how much goes to the content creators?
Ita worth it for me, I watch tons of twitch and ads are annoying. I don't have to mess with anything or deal with twitch updating stuff breaking extensions etc.
