Understanding Subscription Plans on njlegalize.me

njlegalize.me offers two public subscription tiers for cannabis businesses: Free and Premium. Every business starts on Free when they claim or create a listing. Premium unlocks directory visibility, profile enhancements, monthly event boosts, and analytics. Premium subscribers can also add optional Γ  la carte add-ons for custom branding and extra photos.

Here's exactly what each option includes.

The Plans page shows Free and Premium side by side β€” Premium subscribers can add optional enhancements below

Free β€” $0/month

The Free tier gives your business a solid foundation in the Directory at no cost:

  • Basic business listing with name, description, address, contact info, and website
  • 1 photo
  • Ability to submit events to the Events Calendar
  • Standard support

Free is a good starting point for businesses that want a presence on the platform without an ongoing commitment.

Premium β€” $99/month or $1,069/year

Premium is designed for businesses that want consistent visibility and engagement tools:

  • Everything in Free
  • Up to 10 photos
  • Business logo on your profile
  • Video embed on your listing (YouTube or Vimeo)
  • Featured placement in Directory category pages and on the Directory Map (top 3 positions)
  • 1 free event boost per month (30-day duration)
  • Basic analytics dashboard β€” view listing impressions and event performance
  • Social media links on your profile (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter/X, TikTok, LinkedIn)
  • Priority support

Annual billing saves 10% ($1,069/year vs $1,188/year if billed monthly).

Premium Add-Ons β€” Enhance Your Listing

Already on Premium? Subscribe to individual add-ons from the Plans page. Each add-on is a separate monthly PayPal subscription you can cancel anytime:

  • Custom Banner Image β€” $20/month. Upload a custom hero banner to the top of your business profile (min 1,200Γ—300px).
  • Brand Color Customization β€” $15/month. Apply your brand hex color to profile accents and card styling.
  • Extra Photos (+10) β€” $15/month. Raise your photo limit from 10 to 20.
  • Brand Pack β€” $39/month. All three add-ons bundled together (~22% savings vs subscribing individually).

Add-ons require an active Premium subscription. Once subscribed, the corresponding editor fields unlock on your business profile immediately.
