Hunter.io pricing overview

Hunter.io operates on a tiered subscription model, spanning a Free plan, plus Starter, Growth, Scale, and custom Enterprise options. Charges are structured according to credits (search and verification), email outreach functionality, team usage, and priority support.

You can bill monthly or save ~30% with annual billing¹. Hunter also sells credit packs (add-on bundles) and lets you buy additional email accounts as an extra.

Plan	Monthly price	Monthly price (billed annually)
Free	£0	£0
Starter	£41	£28
Growth	£125	£87
Scale	£251	£175
Enterprise	Custom	Custom

Free plan pricing

Hunter's Free plan costs £0, making it a low-risk way for UK teams to test core workflows before committing budget. Because it's perpetually free (not a time-boxed trial), it's ideal for validating data quality, evaluating deliverability with a single sender, and pressure-testing your internal cold-email process without procurement friction.

Free plan features

The Free plan includes 50 credits per month you can spend across Email Finder, Domain Search, and Email Verifier, plus one connected email account for Campaigns and up to 500 recipients per campaign², which is enough to run lightweight experiments.

You also get access to Discover (with basic filters), API access, popular integrations (e.g., Google Sheets, HubSpot, Zapier²), basic tracking, and unlimited team members so multiple colleagues can explore the interface together. Support is regular, which suits evaluation and low-stakes usage.

Is the Free plan right for my business?

Pick the Free plan if you're validating fit, like testing one market, one sender, and a handful of templates. Once you're comfortable with results (or you hit credit and recipient caps regularly), move to the Starter plan.

Starter plan pricing

The Starter plan is built for consistent, small-scale outreach. At £41/month on monthly billing (or £28/month when billed annually)¹, it gives you predictable capacity without overbuying.

Starter plan features

You get 2,000 credits per month (or 24,000/year if you pay annually), plus 3 connected email accounts and 2,500 recipients per campaign¹, which is a noticeable step up from the Free plan.

Features include Auto-verification (to keep lists clean), Lead enrichment, Advanced Discover filters, AI Writing Assistant for faster copy iteration, CSV export, reporting, and unlimited team members, all with priority support. This bundle is purpose-built for repeatable weekly campaigns while keeping overheads modest.

Is the Starter plan right for my business?

The Starter plan fits solo sellers and small UK teams sending steady volumes and wanting deliverability-friendly rotation across a few inboxes. If you're bumping into credit ceilings or juggling multiple brands/regions, you'll outgrow it quickly.

Growth plan pricing

The Growth plan is the pragmatic middle ground for scaling SDR pods. Priced at £125/month (or £87/month when billed annually)¹, it increases monthly credits and sender capacity without the price jump of Scale.

Growth plan features

The Growth plan includes 10,000 credits per month (or 120,000/year) to fuel robust list building and verification. It raises limits to 10 connected email accounts and 5,000 recipients per campaign¹, while preserving all the productivity perks (Advanced Discover filters, enrichment, CSV export, AI Writing Assistant, tracking/reporting, and priority support) alongside unlimited team members.

For many teams, this is the first tier that comfortably supports multi-rep, multi-market outreach without constant juggling.

Is the Growth plan right for my business?

Choose the Growth plan if you're a growing sales org or agency running multiple concurrent sequences, or if you consistently exceed a few thousand monthly credits.

Scale plan pricing

The Scale tier is designed for high-volume programs. It's £175/month (or £251/month annually)¹, which makes sense when your team would otherwise overrun Growth's credits or sender/recipient ceilings every month.

Scale plan features

Scale lifts you to 25,000 credits per month (or 300,000/year), allows 20 connected email accounts, and increases audience reach to 15,000 recipients per campaign¹.

You keep the full Hunter toolset, including Auto-verification, enrichment, Advanced Discover, AI Writing Assistant, CSV export, tracking/reporting, evergreen campaigns, and priority support with unlimited team members. If you're orchestrating large multi-brand or multi-region programs with strict sending hygiene, Scale's quotas reduce friction dramatically.

Is the Scale plan right for my business?

Pick the Scale plan if you're an agency or enterprise business unit executing sizeable, always-on outbound with multiple senders and frequent list refreshes. It's the tier where volume, deliverability, and ops efficiency align.

Enterprise plan pricing

The Enterprise plan is custom-priced¹ and built around your exact throughput: credits, connected mailboxes, and recipient caps, plus commercial requirements like procurement, security reviews, and SLAs. It's the route to tailor limits far beyond standard tiers while layering on higher-touch support from an account manager.

Enterprise plan features

You'll work with Hunter to configure custom credit pools, custom numbers of connected email accounts, and custom per-campaign recipient caps. All core functionality (Finder, Verifier, Discover, Campaigns with AI Writing Assistant, tracking/reporting, CSV export, integrations) stays in play, with priority support + account manager¹ to smooth rollouts and keep deliverability and governance tight at scale.

This is especially helpful if you have compliance needs, aggressive seasonality, or very high monthly credit consumption that doesn't fit stock plans.

Is the Enterprise plan right for my business?

Go Enterprise if you need bespoke quotas, SLAs, or governance. It's made for global teams coordinating across many domains, brands, and markets, or companies whose usage routinely eclipses Scale and want guaranteed capacity.

How much do Hunter.io add-ons cost?

Hunter offers two notable extras for the all-in-one plans. If you need more connected mailboxes than your paid tier includes, you can add additional email accounts for +£8 per account per month³. This is useful when you want to rotate senders for deliverability and volume scaling.

If you hit your credit ceiling, you can buy credit packs as one-off add-ons. These cost £8.40 each and are available to Starter, Growth, and Scale customers (not Free)⁴. The credits you receive depend on your plan (e.g., 100 for Starter, 300 for Growth, 500 for Scale). Credit packs expire after 3 months and don't auto-renew (you can enable an auto-purchase with a cap if you want).

What is the pricing currency?

Hunter accepts payments in USD, EUR, and GBP. The correct currency is auto-selected based on your billing address. VAT is not charged, since Hunter is registered in the US⁵. In case you are paying in another currency, you will also be charged additional FX fees. While this may seem insignificant at first, these fees can quickly compound across all your SaaS subscriptions.

With a Wise Business account, you can hold over 40+ currencies, and pay subscriptions at the mid-market rate with low fees*.

How to save on your Hunter.io bill next month

Getting a handle on your SaaS subscriptions can make or break your budget. If you wish to optimise your Hunter subscription, here are a few things to keep in mind:

• Pick the plan aligned with your actual usage (credits, team seats, campaign volume)
• Run frequent usage audits and ask your team if features like Signals, Campaign attachments, AI Writing Assistant, or custom tracking domains are fully leveraged
• Avoid unnecessary add-ons and unused seats
• Avoid unnecessary foreign transaction fees by using the Wise Business multi-currency card to pay in over 40+ currencies

Get Wise Business for smart savings

Paying vendors in the right currency matters, especially when a tool like Hunter charges the same price in GBP/EUR/USD. With Wise Business, you can hold 40+ currencies, pay subscriptions with a multi-currency card, and easily reconcile your spending – no hidden markups, low fees*, and the mid-market exchange rate.

Hunter.io vs. Snov.io – price comparison

Hunter.io's paid tiers start at £41/month for the Starter plan (or £28/month when billed annually, ~30% off) and scale through Growth and Scale, with a perpetual Free plan if you're just testing.

Pricing is credit-based and includes unlimited team members, and you can optionally add extra sending mailboxes and occasional credit packs when your usage spikes.

By contrast, Snov.io starts at $39/month for its Starter plan (around £28.82/month), while Pro plans begin at $99/month⁶ (around £73.16/month). It offers a 25% discount on annual billing and also uses a credit/recipient model that scales with outreach volume.

In practice, teams focused on email-only outreach often find Hunter's lower entry price and simple packaging cost-efficient, whereas Snov.io can make sense if you want a broader engagement toolkit and are comfortable with the higher Pro starting point.
