Premium Membership worth it?

I am a beginner player, but I have been playing chess my entire life. I have been wanting to improve as a player. Is a premium membership worth it?

Yes it has lot of features especially if you analyse your games. Membership offers unlimited analysis of your games, more lessons and insights if you upgrade to diamond. Insights tell you about your weakness from the games you play.

Worth it if any of these are what you want to do.

YES!....the lessons are great and absolutely worth the $, they ideas come explanations and not just a move list.......before Chess.com I read chess books and Jeremy Silman was my favorite author as he explained the ideas behind everything. I own all of his books. If you play well and see alot of end games, having a good understanding of just end game basics such as philidor/lucena position and how to draw a position will seriously put you in another echelon

I just got it 2 minutes ago! In my mind I literally use it every single day and always wanna analyse more games than I can AND I'd love access to more puzzles and stuff so felt worth it for something I've used and wished for for a couple years now 😊

It won't make you better.  But could be worth it still, up to you! happy.png

Yes, it is for me. I use the side every day without a single thought about how many tactics I´ve left for today or "would like to learn this lesson/video, but are not allowed to do so" or something like that. If you are really interested in learning it´s the best thing you can do. If you come here just sometimes and mainly would like to play it´s just a waste of money. It depends on your goals.

Not really.  Now they want an extra $15 to be "verified."

that´s not really true! Up to know this verification thing did not exist, so nobody could get verified and ok. Now it´s existing and who WANT can be verified. I don´t want, so no extra pay at all. It´s your decision! Nothing to complain about.

IF you fork out an extra $15.  What I said is entirely true.

Yeah, IF. Don´t do it, that´s it.
