Published · Updated
Brevo prices by how many emails you send each month, so the same list can cost very different amounts.
Brevo's paid plans start at $9 a month on Starter and $18 on Standard, each for 5,000 emails. You pay for sends, not contacts, though the smallest tiers cap your list at 500, 1,500 and 2,500 contacts. For 10,000 contacts emailed four times a month (40,000 sends), Brevo costs $46 on Starter or $89 on Standard. Starter's automations stop at 2,000 contacts.
Spreeflo Starter
$52/month($520/year billed annually)
Brevo Standard
$89/month($961/year billed annually)
Spreeflo Starter is $52 a month for 10,000 marketing contacts and 100,000 emails, with the visual journey builder, segments built from unlimited AND/OR conditions and a CRM included. The fair match is Brevo Standard: Starter caps automation at 2,000 contacts and has no A/B testing.
| Spreeflo Starter | Brevo Starter | Brevo Standard | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly price at 40,000 sends (10,000 contacts x 4) | $52 | $46 | $89 |
| Monthly price at 100,000 sends (10,000 contacts x 10) | $52 | $82 | $139 |
| Marketing automation | Yes, whole list | Up to 2,000 contacts | Unlimited |
| A/B testing | Yes | No | Yes |
| Marketing seats | 1 (unlimited on Professional, $76) | 1 | 1 included, up to 3 ($12/mo per extra seat) |

Each paid plan includes a monthly email allowance (one credit per email per contact), and each tier caps your list: 500 contacts at 5,000 emails, 1,500 at 10,000, 2,500 at 15,000 and 500,000 from 20,000 (help center, price list). So 10,000 contacts need at least the 20,000-email tier, and the rest depends on how often you email. Pass a tier's contact cap and Brevo moves you up automatically. Unused emails don't roll over; run out mid-month and campaigns pause until you buy credits or the month resets (Email Tool Tester).
| Emails a month | Sending habit at 10,000 contacts | Starter | Standard |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5,000 | Too small (500-contact cap) | $9 | $18 |
| 10,000 | Too small (1,500-contact cap) | $17 | $35 |
| 20,000 | Fortnightly newsletter | $32 | $69 |
| 40,000 | Weekly newsletter (our benchmark) | $46 | $89 |
| 60,000 | Weekly newsletter plus automations | $65 | $104 |
| 100,000 | Spreeflo's full allowance (10x contacts) | $82 | $139 |
| 150,000 | Not offered | $179 |
Monthly billing, US dollars, from Brevo's price list (generated 29 September 2026). Email Tool Tester is lower above 10,000, so we used Brevo's figures. Spreeflo's price doesn't move with send volume up to 10x your marketing contacts.

Seats are rationed below Professional. Standard tops out at three users, at $12 a month per extra seat (the help center quotes $9, so check at checkout). Three people on Standard at 40,000 sends pay $113 a month; Spreeflo Professional, with unlimited seats, is $76.
Sending more. Two emails a week instead of one (80,000 sends) takes Standard from $89 to $119. Spreeflo has no per-email charge, but sends beyond 10x your marketing contacts don't go out until you upgrade.
Logo removal on Starter. $12 a month, taking Starter at 40,000 sends from $46 to $58.
SMS and WhatsApp. Credits are sold separately; WhatsApp needs Professional.
Sales CRM seats. Sales Essential is $31 and Sales Advanced $65 a month per user (price list). Spreeflo's CRM is included in Starter.
What brings it down: paying yearly saves 10%, and pay-as-you-go credits don't expire.

Brevo holds 4.5 out of 5 on G2 from 2,772 reviews and 3.8 on Trustpilot from 7,249 (27 October 2026). G2 reviewers cite missing features more than price; Trustpilot complaints center on account suspensions, slow support and billing disputes.
Brevo is the better buy for a big list that hears from you rarely (twice a month to 10,000 contacts is $32 on Starter), or if you need landing pages, SMS, WhatsApp or phone support (Spreeflo has none of the last three). If your automations reach 2,000 contacts or fewer, Brevo Starter at 40,000 sends is $6 a month cheaper than Spreeflo Starter.
Spreeflo fits better once you automate for more than 2,000 contacts or send more than about once a week. Starter's journeys react to form sign-ups, segment changes and email activity; Professional ($76, unlimited users) adds product-event and website-activity triggers.
With automation for all 10,000 contacts, Spreeflo Starter costs $37 to $87 a month less than Brevo Standard at 40,000 to 100,000 sends. We'll move your contacts, segments, templates and automations from Brevo free while migration slots last.
