Which Plan Is Right for You?

Starter$15/mo

At $15/mo (1K contacts, annual), it's the cheapest entry with basic email automation. But 5-actions-per-automation limit is very restrictive: most real workflows need more. Push to Plus quickly.

Plus$49/mo

Unlimited automation actions and landing pages at $49/mo (1K contacts). The practical minimum for serious email marketing. Still limited on AI and tracking.

Pro$79/mo

The recommended tier: full Active Intelligence AI, predictive content, advanced segmentation, and attribution tracking. At $79/mo for 1K contacts, compare against Klaviyo ($45/mo) and HubSpot Marketing ($800/mo+).

Enterprise$145/mo

Custom objects, SSO, and dedicated account team. Worth it for large orgs with complex CRM requirements. Negotiate heavily: enterprise pricing is flexible.

Our Verdict

ActiveCampaign Pro at $79/mo is the go-to for sophisticated email automation with AI. Pricing scales with contacts: can get expensive at high volumes. Strong automation capabilities compared to Mailchimp. Compare against Klaviyo (better ecommerce) and HubSpot (better CRM integration) before Enterprise.
