Pricing at a glance

Front’s pricing is straightforward on the surface but can change materially once teams add channels, AI, or service packages. The official pricing page is organized around three annual, per-seat plans: Starter for smaller teams, Professional for omnichannel workflows, and Enterprise for organizations that want the broadest control and the most included AI capabilities. That structure makes Front easy to evaluate if you are comparing base license cost, but the real budget question is often what your team needs beyond the core seat price. Front publicly lists add-ons for AI assistance, AI quality assurance, customer satisfaction automation, WhatsApp connectivity, and higher API limits, so the total monthly spend can rise depending on how much automation and scale you want. The company also offers a free 14-day trial with the Professional feature set, which helps teams test the product before committing. For buyers that need onboarding or payment flexibility, Front’s notes around contracts over $25k and annual-only wire or ACH payments are also worth factoring into procurement planning.

◇ Pricing model

Per-seat subscription with annual billing shown publicly; some add-ons are usage-based or per-seat add-ons, and Enterprise includes selected AI features.

↻ Billing notes

Front publicly presents annual billing as the default pricing mode and advertises “Save 24%” when billed annually. The company offers a free 14-day trial, and the FAQ says the trial includes all features from the Professional plan and does not require a credit card. Front also says plans are assigned at the organization level, seats can be added or removed within a single plan, and contracts over $25k require an onboarding package purchase. For payments, wire transfer or ACH is available only on annual purchases where the total contract value exceeds $12K.

Hidden and indirect costs

Worth budgeting for
⚠  Front publicly notes that some features are add-ons rather than included by default, which can raise the effective price above the base seat rate. Examples include Copilot, Smart QA, Smart CSAT, Autopilot, Native WhatsApp, and API rate limit increases. The pricing page also says services add-ons are available for Professional and Enterprise plans, and it requires an onboarding package for contracts over $25k.
⚠  Billing can be more expensive for teams that need annual commitments, because the page emphasizes annual billing and offers a 24% annual savings message. Front also states that wire transfer or ACH payment is available only if you purchase annually and the total contract value is over $12K.
