What is ESO Plus?

• Access to all DLC game packs
• Free crowns for the in-game Crown Store
• Access to the Craft Bag
• Double bank space
• 10% increase to Experience & Gold acquisition, Crafting Inspiration, Trait Research, and Archival Fortunes acquisition rates
  
• Bonuses to progression
• Increased Furniture placement limits
• Costume dyeing
• Double Transmute Crystal capacity
• Exclusive access to unique Crown Store deals

You can sign up for either a 1-, 3-, 6-, or 12-month membership, and you can find more information on each unique bonus or perk below.

Access to all DLC game packs in the Crown Store

With an ESO Plus membership, you'll have full access to all DLC game packs currently available in the in-game Crown Store. This means you can enjoy all additional dungeons, zones, game modes and other cool stuff without having to spend any crowns!

With an ESO Plus membership, you'll have full access to all DLC game packs currently available in the in-game Crown Store. This means you can enjoy all additional dungeons, zones, game modes and other cool stuff without having to spend any crowns!

You can play every one of over twenty released DLC game packs right now – and more are on the way!

If your ESO Plus membership expires, you will lose access to the DLC game packs that you haven't purchased with crowns, but you will not lose any of the items, achievements, gold, or experience you earned while playing them. That rare armor set that you earned for completing White-Gold Tower? Don't worry, it's yours for life.

Note: Non-ESO Plus members can still gain access to the DLC game packs by purchasing them through the in-game Crown Store. An ESO Plus membership does not provide access to content that is not available in the in-game Crown Store, such as a current Chapter offering.

Free Crowns

As an ESO Plus member, you'll receive 1650 crowns for each month of your membership to spend in the in-game Crown Store. With crowns, you can purchase convenience and cosmetic items such as mounts, costumes, pets, XP scrolls, potions, race change tokens, DLC game packs, and more.

Is there a fancy costume or fierce mount you've got your eye on? Grab it with your ESO Plus bonus crowns.

You'll receive all of your due crowns instantly and upfront. For example, if you purchased a 6-month membership, you will receive 9900 crowns to spend in the Crown Store as soon as you log into the game, rather than receiving 1650 crowns every month for the duration of the membership period.

Access to the Craft Bag

To help you manage your crafting materials, an ESO Plus membership gives you access to the Craft Bag, a special storage option that allows you to store nearly infinite amounts of crafting materials, freeing up space in your inventory and bank.

When you log into the game with a Craft Bag, your crafting materials are instantly moved to the bag, and they are automatically removed from the bag when crafting. To access your Craft Bag, navigate to the Craft Bag icon while viewing your inventory.

If you choose to cancel your ESO Plus membership, you will still retain your Craft Bag and everything stored inside of it. However, you will not be able to add new materials to the bag while your membership remains inactive.

Double Bank Space

We know there's no such thing as “too much free space" when it comes to hoarding items. Luckily, ESO Plus membership doubles the size of your account's bank space. Now you can store all those weapons, pieces of armor, and – of course – those delicious Sweet Rolls, without hassle.

If you choose to cancel your ESO Plus membership, your bank space will revert to the standard size. You will not lose any items that put you over the bank storage cap, but you will not be able to store new items until space is available.

Bonuses to Progression

To help you make the most out of your time in Tamriel, ESO Plus members receive a host of bonuses to their in-game character progression. This includes:

• 10% increase to Experience gains
• 10% increase to Gold gains
• 10% increase to Crafting Inspiration gains
• 10% increase to Trait Research rates
• 10% increase to Archival Fortunes Acquisition
  

With these bonuses, your character will acquire levels and riches faster than ever before.

If you lose access to your ESO Plus membership, don't worry. Any progress made using the progression bonuses during the time of membership will remain.

Extra Furniture Space

Wish you could add just one more Trophy to your home's mantelpiece in ESO? You're in luck: an ESO Plus membership also grants you double the space for home furnishings, allowing you to decorate your abode to your heart's content!

If your membership is no longer active, the items will remain in your homes, but you will not be able to add new ones until you are back under the furnishings cap.

Costume Dyeing

ESO Plus members have the exclusive ability to dye their costumes at dye stations, allowing you to truly show off your unique style. (It's a surefire way to get whispers of adoration.)

Non-ESO Plus members are only able to dye regular pieces of armor. If your ESO Plus membership is no longer active, your costumes will remain dyed.

Double Transmute Crystal Capacity

When you have an ESO Plus membership, you are able to hold twice as many Transmute Crystals as you would otherwise. This means you can save up more crystals between trips to the Transmute Station. 

If you lose ESO Plus membership, you are able to retain or spend any crystals you have at the time, but you will not be able to acquire new ones until you are back under your normal limit. 

Exclusive ESO Plus Deals

With ESO Plus membership, you will have access to exclusive Crown Store deals, including sales, free items, unique deals and more. The items available can change often (and some might only be available as part of a limited-time offer), so be sure to check the ESO Plus tab within the Crown Store UI on occasion to see what is available. ESO Plus-only sales and free or exclusive items will be indicated by gold text and the Chalice icon.

Note that it will not be possible to Gift an item acquired for free, purchased at a discount, or purchased exclusively due to your ESO Plus membership. However, you can still purchase items as Gifts at full price.

How do I sign up?

Easy! To acquire an ESO Plus membership, head over to the ESO Plus web page. From there, you can choose from membership options based on your platform. You can also find ESO Plus in the Steam Store (if your ESO account is Steam-enabled), PlayStation Store, and Xbox Store. You can also purchase ESO Plus membership via the ESO Plus menu in the in-game Crown Store (it will take you to the appropriate store).
