lemlist Pricing Explained (2026): Email vs Multichannel, Credits and Yearly Cost
lemlist pricing, in short: two self-serve plans — Email at $69 a month for the whole workspace (unlimited users and senders, 50,000 emails a month), and Multichannel at $109 per user a month. Yearly billing cuts them to $55 and $87 (20% off); quarterly saves 10%. Lead data is an add-on from $20 a month for 2,000 credits.

lemlist changed its pricing model in 2026, which is why the guides that rank for it disagree: some still list per-user Email Starter and Email Pro plans at $39 to $99. The current page has one email plan priced per workspace and one multichannel plan priced per user. This guide covers both, the data add-ons, and what a year costs for a small team.
Key takeaways
- Email plan: $69 a month, or $55 a month billed yearly, for unlimited users and email senders at 50,000 emails a month.

The Email plan's price depends on the monthly email volume you pick; $69 is the 50,000-emails setting the page showed by default. If you send more, choose a higher volume and the price rises with it.
Is lemlist priced per user?
Only on Multichannel. The Email plan is priced per workspace with unlimited users and unlimited email senders, so a five-person team sending only email pays $69 a month, not five times that. Multichannel charges each user $109 a month.
That makes the plan choice the biggest cost decision on lemlist. For an email-only team, lemlist is now one of the cheaper ways to give several people access to a shared outreach tool. The moment you need LinkedIn, SMS or calling steps, the bill becomes per person.
| Team | Email plan, yearly | Multichannel, yearly | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 user | $660 | $1,044 | $384 |
| 3 users | $660 | $3,132 | $2,472 |
| 5 users | $660 | $5,220 | $4,560 |
On monthly billing the Email plan is $828 a year, and Multichannel $1,308 per user. Annual figures are 12 months at the yearly rate.
What do lemlist credits cost?
lemlist credits cost $20 a month for 2,000 on monthly billing, or $16 billed yearly. 2,000 credits find about 400 email addresses or 100 phone numbers, so an email costs about 5 credits and a phone number about 20.
| Data add-on | Monthly | Yearly (per month) | Allowance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lead data enrichment | $20 | $16 | 2,000 credits a month (400 emails or 100 phones) |
| Buying intent signals | $29 | $21 | 100 signals a month |
Two details are in lemlist's favour: you are charged credits only for successful results, and unused credits roll over for as long as your subscription stays active. At the entry pack, though, a team that finds 1,000 emails a month needs about 5,000 credits, so price a larger pack before assuming $20 covers it.

What does lemlist cost for a year?
A small email team pays $660 a year on lemlist's Email plan billed yearly, plus about $192 for the entry data pack. Mailboxes and domains come from your own provider on top.
| Line item (3 people, email only, yearly) | Per month | Year one |
|---|---|---|
| Email plan | $55 | $660 |
| Lead data enrichment, 2,000 credits | $16 | $192 |
| 6 Google Workspace mailboxes (your provider) | Check your provider | — |
| lemlist total | $71 | $852 |
Six mailboxes at a careful 30 emails a day each send about 3,960 emails over 22 working days, well inside the 50,000 allowance. The constraint on lemlist's Email plan is usually your mailboxes, not the plan. See how many cold emails to send per inbox for that maths.
Adding one LinkedIn step to a sequence moves every person who runs it to Multichannel. For three people that is $3,132 a year instead of $660. Decide whether the extra channel earns $2,472 before you build it into the playbook.
Is lemlist cheaper than Instantly or Smartlead?
For email only, lemlist's Email plan at $69 a month for 50,000 emails sits between Instantly Growth ($47 for 5,000 emails) and Instantly Hypergrowth ($97 for 125,000), and above Smartlead Base ($39 for 6,000). It includes a lead database and finder that Smartlead does not.
| Tool | Entry email plan (monthly) | Users | Multichannel |
|---|---|---|---|
| lemlist | $69, 50,000 emails | Unlimited | $109 per user |
| Instantly | $47, 5,000 emails | Check plan | Email-focused |
| Smartlead | $39, 6,000 emails | Check plan | Email-focused; calls on higher plans |

What does lemlist not include?
lemlist does not include a sales CRM with deals and pipeline reporting, landing pages or booking pages; it connects to CRMs such as HubSpot, Salesforce and Pipedrive instead. Mailboxes can be bought in the app, but they are a separate cost.
- CRM: replies and leads sync out to a CRM you pay for separately.
- Compliance: the unsubscribe link is built in, but the legal basis for each region is yours to check — see whether cold email is legal.
- WhatsApp is an add-on even on Multichannel.
Scalry, which publishes this guide, takes the other route: cold email sequences sit inside the CRM on its $29, $79 and $199 workspace plans, with your own connected mailboxes, per-mailbox daily caps and an automatic CAN-SPAM footer. It does not automate LinkedIn and is not a substitute for lemlist's Multichannel plan.
Questions to ask before you commit
Whichever way you are leaning, these are the questions that change the answer. Work through them against your own numbers rather than anyone's feature matrix — including this one.
- Email only, or other channels? That alone decides workspace or per-user pricing.
- How many emails a month? Pick the Email plan volume from contacts times steps.
- How many contacts will you look up? Price credits at about 5 per email.
- Where will deals live? Budget for the CRM.
- Yearly or monthly? Yearly saves 20%.
If you cannot answer the first three, you are not ready to choose between Scalry and lemlist yet — you are still deciding what you need, which is a cheaper problem to solve first.
