Quicken Classic Starter (US) Renewal Cost?

Received an e-mail a few days ago reminding me that my Quicken subscription will renew in January. UNHELPFULLY, the message doesn't state what my renewal cost will be! Every other similar renewal message I get from vendors will provide that information. So Quicken, how I am I supposed to BUDGET or plan for this expense? Simply wait for the SURPRISE renewal cost to appear on my credit card bill? The irony of this situation is ridiculous.

Quicken does have a page with prices on it, but not for "Quicken Classic Starter (US)", which is what I have according to their e-mail.

I've been using quicken since the DOS days. It was a MUCH better product then with WAY fewer problems. And don't get me started on TurboTax. They are selling the 2024 edition now, but nothing involving form 1099 works yet.

    Here’s the page for the Starter Edition. It says 3.99/ mo so that’s 3.99x12= 47.88

    Thank you VolvoGirl! Not happy about the price increase for buggy software. For example, I can no longer sync with the web due to problems it has with certain transactions which I can't correct. Database repair doesn't fix it either. Many other frustrations too numerous to mention, despite being a Quicken user since the 1980's. You might be able to stay on Quicken 2013, but it may not install on newer Windows versions.
