DataCamp Premium drops to $1 for first month in new promo
What happened
Between the Sep 28, 2026 and Oct 5, 2026 captures of DataCamp's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Premium now shows a First Month Special: $1 for the first month ($35 monthly list), replacing the $28/month billed annually headline; course credits now apply only to the first month. Pulse files it as a pricing change (discount added) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Nov 2, 2026) lists Teams at $14 and Premium at $28.
It lands 56 days after DataCamp's previous change, "DataCamp: Premium and Teams plans double from $14 to $28/month" (Aug 10, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "DataCamp: course catalog expanded to 790+ courses" (Jul 27, 2026) and "DataCamp slashes Premium and Teams pricing 50%, from $28 to $14/mo" (Jul 13, 2026). DataCamp has been tracked since 2026-07-04.
