Pricing at a glance

◇ Pricing model

Tiered subscription pricing based on contact count and email-sends volume, with publicly posted starting prices for core plans and a quote-only Teams tier.

↻ Billing notes

The public pricing page shows monthly starting prices for Lite, Standard, and Premium. The page does not disclose annual billing discounts for the core plans, but a third-party pricing reference says one plan can be $10.80 per month on a six-month plan and $10.20 when billed annually. Constant Contact offers a free trial and says no credit card is required. The pricing page also says overage fees may apply, and Teams is handled as a contact-us tier rather than a self-serve public price.

Add-ons and extras

Hidden and indirect costs

Worth budgeting for
⚠  Constant Contact says plan price is based on the number of contacts and email sends, so the displayed starting prices can increase as your list grows or usage changes. The pricing page also warns that overage fees may apply, which means customers should budget for sending beyond plan limits. In addition, some capabilities such as inbox preview are presented as add-ons rather than included features, which can raise the total monthly spend.
⚠  The pricing page does not publish a full public price card for Teams, and it does not disclose the exact pricing mechanics for that tier. Buyers that need multi-location or multi-account features should expect a sales conversation instead of an instant checkout price.

Pricing FAQ

No public free-forever plan is shown in the supplied pricing page text. The website does show a free trial, and it says no credit card is required to start. If a buyer needs a long-term free tier, that is not publicly disclosed in the supplied documents.

Lite is positioned for beginners and includes core email, social, reporting, and basic automation features. Standard adds scheduled and automated email sends, contact segmentation, subject line comparison testing, and pre-built automation templates. Premium adds the highest level of support and more advanced capabilities such as unlimited templates, custom automations, ecommerce templates, and ad-targeting tools.

No. The public pricing page labels Teams as ideal for teams with multiple locations and directs buyers to contact the company, but it does not show a public dollar amount. That makes Teams a quote-only tier in the supplied materials.

Yes. The pricing page says overage fees may apply, and it also shows inbox preview as a $10 per month add-on across the core plans. Buyers should treat those as potential extras on top of the base plan price.
