Constant Contact pricing starts at $12 a month, and 10,000 contacts cost $120 to $275 a month.

Constant Contact has three plans: Lite from $12 a month, Standard from $35 and Premium from $80, each for 500 contacts. The price climbs with your list. At 10,000 contacts you pay $120 on Lite, $160 on Standard and $275 on Premium every month, or up to 15% less if you prepay a year. Every plan caps your sends at a multiple of your contacts, and each email over the cap costs $0.002.

Spreeflo runs the same list for $52 a month, with branching journeys and a CRM included.

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. On Constant Contact, custom automations need Premium; for a team of two or three, the fair match is Spreeflo Professional (unlimited users) against Standard (3 users).

Here is what the Constant Contact pricing plans cost at each list size.

Constant Contact prices by plan and by how many contacts you store.

Starting prices from constantcontact.com/pricing, read 27 October 2026. Its contact slider hides the higher tiers, so those come from Email Tool Tester (August 2026) and Email Vendor Selection (Lite only, October 2026), which agree wherever they overlap. Monthly billing, US dollars.

What each Constant Contact plan includes, and where the limits bite.

All three share the email editor, templates, sign-up forms, social posting and live support.

Automation stops at templates until Premium. A welcome series that branches on whether someone opened the first email is a custom automation, and custom automations are Premium only. So real automation at 10,000 contacts costs $275, not $160.

Segments are rationed. One custom segment on Lite and ten on Standard run out fast once you talk differently to trial users, customers, people who clicked pricing and people who went quiet.

These are the fees that push a Constant Contact bill up.

• Send overages. Past 10x (Lite), 12x (Standard) or 24x (Premium) your contacts in a month, emails still go out and each extra one costs $0.002, or $2 per 1,000. Spreeflo includes 10x your marketing contacts, and sends beyond that don't go out until you move up a plan.

• List growth. The jumps are steep: Standard goes from $110 at 5,000 contacts to $160 at 10,000 and $310 at 25,000.

• SMS. US only: a paid add-on from $10 a month on Lite and Standard, 500 messages a month included on Premium.

• More users. Lite is one seat and Standard is three. A fourth teammate means Premium.

What brings it down: prepaying 12 months saves up to 15% (Standard's starting price drops to $29.75), and registered nonprofits save 20% on six months prepaid or 30% on twelve. There's no discount for paying monthly.

Spreeflo annual plans cost ten times the monthly price (pricing). Constant Contact prepaid figures apply the full 15% of its "up to 15%" prepay discount.

Where Constant Contact is worth the price, and where Spreeflo fits better.

Constant Contact, running since 1995, holds 4.1 out of 5 on G2 from 7,625 reviews and 4.0 on Trustpilot from 2,115 (27 October 2026). Reviewers praise ease of use and helpful support staff; complaints cluster around billing and cancellation, including price increases and refused refunds.

It's a good buy if you run events, want social posting and ads in the same tool, need SMS in the US, or value live phone support and one-to-one onboarding. Spreeflo does none of events, social posting or SMS, and its support is by email and chat (premium on Professional), not phone.

Spreeflo fits better when your marketing is about what people do: sign up, open, click, buy, go quiet. Starter's journeys react to form sign-ups, segment changes and email activity; triggering on events from your own product is on Professional ($76). Contacts you don't market to are stored free.

These are the questions people ask about Constant Contact pricing.

How much does Constant Contact cost per month?

Lite starts at $12, Standard at $35 and Premium at $80 a month for 500 contacts (constantcontact.com, 27 October 2026). The price rises in tiers as your list grows, and prepaying a year takes up to 15% off.

Is Constant Contact free?

No, there's no free plan. Constant Contact offers a free trial with no credit card, and every new paid plan has a 30-day money-back guarantee. Spreeflo has a free-forever plan (forms, web analytics and the AI assistant, no card), with paid email plans from $16 a month.

How does Constant Contact nonprofit pricing work?

Registered nonprofits get 20% off when they prepay six months and 30% off when they prepay twelve (constantcontact.com/pricing, 27 October 2026). There's no free nonprofit plan. At 10,000 contacts on Standard ($160 a month), a year prepaid at 30% off comes to $1,344, or $112 a month.

How can I lower my Constant Contact bill?

Prepay a year for up to 15% off, or, as a registered nonprofit, take the 20% or 30% nonprofit discount instead. Then check whether Lite is enough: it costs less than Standard at every list size, but has one user, one automation template and one custom segment. If you need branching automations without paying for Premium, Spreeflo Starter includes them.

What is a cheaper alternative to Constant Contact?

Spreeflo Starter costs $52 a month for 10,000 marketing contacts, against $160 on Constant Contact Standard, and includes branching journeys, segments and a CRM. For more than one user, Spreeflo Professional is $76. It doesn't do events, social posting or SMS, so if those are central, Constant Contact may still fit better.
