Snap Inc, the parent company of the Snapchat photo messaging app, is testing a new subscription service called Snapchat +, which will give subscribers access to exclusive and advanced features, a Snap spokesman confirmed on Thursday.

The subscription feature, which Snap said was being tested internally, was first unveiled on Twitter by a user named Alessandro Paluzzi, a mobile developer and backup engineer according to his Twitter biography.

Snapchat + will cost 4.59 euros for a one-month subscription or 45.99 euros for a year, according to screenshots posted by Paluzzi on Twitter.

This will be the first Snapchat subscription product that allows users to post content stories, play games and scroll through a TikTok-like feature called Spotlight.
