Why Use This Email Marketing Pricing Calculator?

Side-by-side monthly cost for up to three email marketing plans, with contact and send overages charged in whole blocks above each plan's included allowance.
Separate contact, send and seat lines show which meter drives the bill, so a low base price cannot hide a small allowance or a steep block rate.
Year one applies an annual prepay discount to all recurring charges, with monthly and year-one verdicts shown side by side.
A scale check reports the cheapest plan at 2× and 4× contacts, sends and seats, plus the first contact and send counts where the leader changes.
Copy-ready summary; all inputs stay in the browser and the static worked example remains readable with JavaScript off.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does email marketing software cost?
It depends on contacts, monthly sends, seats and the plan’s included allowances. The calculator combines those inputs into a monthly total and a year-one cost; it does not assert vendor prices.
What is a contact overage?
Plans include a contact tier and charge per additional block, usually per 1,000 contacts. The calculator charges whole blocks above the included count.
What is a send overage?
Plans include a monthly send allowance and charge per additional block, usually per 10,000 sends. The calculator charges whole blocks above the included allowance.
Why does the cheapest plan change at 2,001 contacts?
Plan A has the lowest base price but a smaller contact and send allowance. At 2,000 contacts the two plans tie at $79.00/mo, and Plan A still wins year one because its annual discount is larger; at 2,001 contacts Plan B wins.
Why does Plan C take over at 20,001 contacts?
Plan B includes 10,000 contacts and charges $8 per extra 1,000; Plan C includes 50,000 at a higher base. At 20,000 contacts both cost $159.00/mo; above that, Plan B’s contact overage makes Plan C cheaper.
Does the annual discount apply to overages?
In this model the discount applies to all recurring charges, including contact, send and seat overages. Some vendors exclude add-ons; enter the discount that reflects the subscription-only saving.
Are these real email marketing prices?
No. Every rate is user-entered; the presets are example rates, not vendor quotes.
What is not included?
Taxes, currency conversion, SMS credits, landing pages, ecommerce sync, app-marketplace add-ons, agency services and enterprise custom quotes are out of scope.

Methodology

Monthly total = plan base + contact-block overage + send-block overage + extra-seat charges; the annual discount applies to all recurring charges. Overages use whole blocks above the included allowance. All prices are user inputs.
