Managing your Subscriptions - Updated pricing plans

Alert
There are changes in the pricing plan on October 18, 2022. Please refer the comparison document to understand these changes.
Notes
Notes:
  1. There will be no changes in pricing for existing users unless you cancel your plan and resubscribe.
  2. A few features will be restricted in the Pay as you go plan accounts if you change the number of credits in this plan.
 
For some small businesses, the free version of Zoho Campaigns has all the features they require, such as creating and sending email campaigns and viewing reports. However, when your business starts to expand, upgrading your account to a paid plan brings many benefits and advanced features, such as automated email series and email polls.
 
This guide will introduce you to our subscription structure and help you review your subscription preferences.
Depending on your requirements, you can choose either a monthly or yearly subscription, and a professional or standard plan. There is also pay as you go plan for users who send email campaigns occasionally or users whose market is active for a short span over a year.
 
Users who are creating an account after December 1, 2021 will get a trial period of 14 days. You can access all the features, add up to 2,000 contacts and send up to 6,000 emails in this period.
 
After 14 days, you'll be moved to the free plan, in which some features are restricted. If you want access to features, you can upgrade to any one of the following pricing plans:
 
Professional plan : This plan is based on the number of contacts in your account. Purchase the plan for a specific number of contacts and then send those contacts unlimited emails, set autoresponders, and use workflows. You can add upto 20 users in your organization under this plan.
 
Standard plan : This plan is also based on the number of contacts in your account. The major difference between this plan and the Professional plan is that some features like contact scoring, abandoned cart follow-up, and webhooks are not available in this plan.  You can add upto 10 users in your organization under this plan.

Pay-as-you-go : This plan is based on email credits. Purchase email credits, which will determine how many emails you can send. You can add as many contacts as you like.
