Learn more about Arlo security subscription plans and what each option offers your family.
There are currently two options for Arlo security subscriptions: Arlo Secure Plus and Arlo Secure Premium. Both plans offer 60-day video history, customizable detection alerts (for packages, people, and animals), and notifications.
The Arlo Premium plan offers additional features, including 24/7 professional monitoring, a discount on home insurance premiums (up to 20%), and one-tap 24/7 emergency response.
Aside from live feed monitoring, this Arlo subscription comes with 60 days of video history — securely stored in the cloud — along with customizable alerts and notifications.
Set activity zones within your security camera’s range and you’ll receive notifications only about events taking place in the set zone. That way you won’t get a ping every time a squirrel crosses a road or your neighbor across the street gets a package.
Arlo Plus lets you set alerts for:
Arlo security plan subscriptions come with additional benefits, including priority 24/7 customer support via the app, as well as live chat and phone call options.
You’ll also enjoy a 15% discount on all Arlo products purchased on our website as well as free of charge replacement in the event of your Arlo camera being stolen.
The Plus plan works great for anyone who wants an easy-to-use, reliable, customizable security plan. If you’re looking to keep an eye on pets or kids, check on elderly family members, or are concerned about package theft, the Plus plan is a good choice.
The Premium plan includes everything in the Plus plan (like the customizable detection alerts), but comes with extra layers of security:
With the Premium plan, Arlo’s live Safety Agents monitor your Arlo camera footage around the clock and dispatch first responders if an emergency or a breach is taking place.
Similarly, if you’re notified of an emergency through an alert, you can request help with one tap. First responders, including law enforcement and the fire department, will receive your request with pre-filled details like address and any access codes, saving time when it matters most.
You’ll receive a 15% discount on Arlo products at arlo.com, much like Plus members, but you may also qualify for a 20% discount on your home insurance premium if you purchased an Arlo Home Security System. You’ll be able to download and show a Professional Monitoring certificate to your insurance provider.
Premium members short on time can use event captions to get an overview of an event (like someone arriving at your house) without watching the actual footage.
This Arlo security subscription also comes with the ability to search and filter video footage by time ranges.
Frequent travelers, people with multiple properties, or business owners who are too busy to constantly monitor their locations will enjoy the 24/7 white glove security service the Premium plan offers. Note that if you want to use an Arlo security subscription for more than one property, you’ll need to purchase an individual plan for each address.
The Premium plan is also a great choice for anyone particularly concerned about safety and wants an additional layer of security with professional monitoring.
If you’re on a monthly plan, you can switch anytime and your pricing will change at the end of the billing cycle. Annual plan members may need to wait for plan renewal time before switching.
