Overview of the premium accounts
Advantages of a premium account
- Unlimited download speed
- No waiting before download
- Unlimited simultaneous downloads
- Download files up to 80GB in size
- Download manager supported
- No ads, no captcha
These limits exist
If you decide to purchase a Rapidgator premium account, you will enjoy mostly advantages. However, you should be aware that the traffic limit of the purchased premium account can be used up in just a few days, regardless of the duration. This means that you will enjoy your premium status either until the term of your premium account expires or the entire traffic (bandwidth) is used up.
A small example: The one month premium account of Rapdigator includes one terabyte traffic (this would be 34GB/day). If you download one terabayte within two days, your one month premium status ends after two days. In view of the lush bandwidth sizes of the respective premium account, this is not to be considered negative. In contrast to well-known premium accounts of other providers (e.g. ddownload-premium.com) which credit their premium users with several gigabytes per day, Rapidgator Premium allows you to download large amounts of data in a short time.

- Price / performance in comparison -
At first glance, Rapidgator's prices seem higher than those of other hosters, but you should keep in mind that the prices are given in US dollars and converted to euros they don't seem that high anymore. As usual in the industry, the premium accounts with the lowest runtime/traffic contingent are the comparatively most expensive. But which premium account is worth it? The following table gives you an overview of the costs of the individual premium accounts:
As you can see from the table, the premium accounts where you get the most for your money are the 6 and 12 month premium accounts. However, we recommend you to choose a 6 month premium account from Rapidgator, because there are no price advantages between the 6 and 12 month premium account. HINT: The 6 month premium account costs half of the 12 month account and also offers half of the traffic. So you are on the safe side. If you have used up the 6TB, you can buy another 6 months/6TB at any time.
Upload and download files up to 80GB
Rapidgator offers a variety of features and options to meet the needs of users who need to download or upload large files. Premium users can download files up to 80 GB, which is especially handy when it comes to sharing or receiving large files such as videos, audio files, or software programs. This feature is only available to Premium users and is a distinct advantage over other file hosting services.
Another advantage of Rapidgator is the storage period of uploaded files. Normally, files are only stored for 30 days, but as a Premium user you can store your own uploaded files for 60 days without having to download them. This means that you don't have to worry about losing your files if you don't download them right away. Rapidgator allows you to upload files with all common file extensions, including .exe, .mp4, .mp3, .jpg, .pdf and many others. To upload or download your files quickly and securely Rapidgator provides a fast and reliable connection.
The full Rapidgator speed
There are many reasons for buying a Rapidgator premium account. On the one hand, you don't have the annoying hourly limit where you can only download one file per hour. On the other hand, the use of a premium account also increases the download speed enormously. Instead of 80KB/s now more than 12MB/s are possible, of course this requires a 100Mbit connection. This corresponds to a 250x faster download than without premium account! Even if you don't have a high-speed connection, a premium account makes perfect sense for you. The following chart shows the speed differences of a download with and without Rapidgator premium account in combination with your DSL, cable or fiber connection:
As you can see from the graph, you can already download 125x faster with a 50Mbit connection at home, with a premium account than with the free variant (Free). The time you would otherwise spend in free mode waiting for a slow download is already divided by 125. So you can download 1GByte with a premium account in ~ 2min and 45 seconds, instead of 3 hours and 30min.
Avoid waiting time and captcha
One of the main complaints users have when using Rapidgator is the annoying captcha solving that is required every time they want to download a file. This can be very time-consuming and frustrating, especially if you want to download multiple files. With Rapidgator Premium, this problem is now history. Users with a premium account have the option to download files directly without a captcha solution. This not only saves time, but also nerves and makes downloading files on Rapidgator a much more pleasant experience.
Another advantage of Rapidgator Premium is that users do not have to wait before and after each download. Often, when using free file hosts, users have to wait for a certain amount of time before they can download another file. With a premium account, this waiting time is completely eliminated, which makes downloading files even faster and more efficient.
