Traktor Pro plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Traktor Play | Free | 2 | Entry tier |
| Traktor Pro 4 | $149/month | 3 | +$149/month, 3 more features |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

What the product covers
The full Traktor Pro feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.

- Traktor Play
- Effects Ensemble
- Beatport integration
People bring Traktor Pro in for a dj who wants to own software outright rather than pay a recurring subscription like serato pro or rekordbox core, a performer who wants real-time stem separation and remix decks for improvised sets, a beginner testing traktor play for free before deciding whether to buy pro, a dj already invested in native instruments kontrol hardware wanting tight software-hardware integration. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Traktor Pro are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Traktor Pro badges page.
Before you pay for Traktor Pro
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 2 tiers between Free and $149/month, with the jump itemised above. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Traktor Pro runs on macos, windows, and is published by Native Instruments GmbH of Berlin, Germany. The full record is on the Traktor Pro review, and the rest of the category is under best music tools.
