Comparison
HubSpot vs Brevo pricing
These products do not share a billing shape. Brevo sells Starter and Standard on send volume bands that also cap stored contacts. HubSpot Marketing Hub sells edition bases, Core Seats and marketing-contact packs from the Product and Services Catalog. This page keeps catalog USD beside Brevo LIVE cells under the weekly send assumption and does not invent a HubSpot eight-breakpoint matrix.
The bill shapes are not the same
- HubSpot Starter base
- $20
- Per Core Seat. 1,000 marketing contacts included.
- Brevo Starter at 1k
- $17
- Brevo Standard is $35 at the same size. Both sit on the 10,000 send band, which caps stored contacts at 1,500. Confidence derived.
- HubSpot Professional base
- $890
- 3 Core Seats. Onboarding $3,000 one-time.
Brevo sells Starter and Standard on monthly send volume bands, and each band caps how many contacts can be stored. HubSpot prices an edition base, then Core Seats, then marketing-contact packs on top. Comparing a HubSpot Starter seat sticker to a Brevo Starter cell without saying which seats and which contact packs are in play mixes two meters.
HubSpot cells on this page prefer the Product and Services Catalog. The Marketing pricing UI can show suite or Customer Platform packaging, but its Marketing Hub list prices match the catalog, as do those on HubSpot's pricing calculator, read 26 September 2026. Only promotional prices, such as the new customer Starter seat, stay out.
Brevo Starter by list size
LIVE ladder from the dated Brevo calculator under the weekly send assumption. Brevo Standard sits in the notes. Sizes where Brevo does not publish a figure are left out.
Prices are compiled from public vendor pages and can lag behind a change. Cells marked Der are calculated from published rules and cells marked Est are rough figures. Neither is an invoice or a quote, so confirm with the vendor before you spend.

HubSpot catalog edition bases
Verified catalog stickers for new customers after 5 March 2024. Not a contact ladder.
| Edition | Base | Core Seats | Extra seat | Included contacts | Onboarding | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $20 / seat | 1 | $20 | 1,000 | not required | Verified |
| Professional | $890 | 3 | $50 | 2,000 | $3,000 one-time | Verified |
| EnterpriseBilled annually | $3,600 | 5 | $75 | 10,000 | $7,000 one-time | Verified |
Enterprise is billed annually only at $3,600 a month equivalent, with 10,000 marketing contacts included and onboarding at $7,000. Starter and Professional marketing-contact packs live on HubSpot marketing contacts pricing.
Worked examples at four list sizes
HubSpot Starter assumes one Core Seat. Professional uses the edition base plus catalog contact packs. Onboarding fees are one-time and sit outside the monthly figures. Pack totals are derived from verified catalog rates.
| List size | HubSpot Starter | HubSpot Professional | Brevo Starter | Brevo Standard |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1,000 Starter included contacts cover this size. Professional base includes 2,000 contacts. | $20 Derived pack math | $890 Derived pack math, plus $3,000 onboarding | $17 Dataset cell, derived | $35 Dataset cell, derived |
| 5,000 Starter packs from catalog bands. Professional adds one 5,000 contact pack above its 2,000 included. | $210 Derived pack math | $1,140 Derived pack math, plus $3,000 onboarding | $32 Dataset cell, derived | $69 Dataset cell, derived |
| 10,000 Starter packs continue. Professional needs contact packs above 2,000. | $410 Derived pack math | $1,390 Derived pack math, plus $3,000 onboarding | $46 Dataset cell, derived | $89 Dataset cell, derived |
| 25,000 Starter and Professional pack math from catalog bands only. | $1,010 Derived pack math | $2,115 Derived pack math, plus $3,000 onboarding | $82 Dataset cell, derived | $139 Dataset cell, derived |
At 1,000 contacts HubSpot Starter is $20 for one seat against Brevo Starter at $17, while Professional sits above Standard. At 10,000 contacts Starter pack math reaches $410 while Brevo Starter is $46 and Brevo Standard is $89. Professional stays far above both Brevo paid plans once the edition base is in the bill.
Paying yearly on Brevo and HubSpot
Per month at 10,000 contacts, paid month to month and paid for a year up front.
| Plan | Paid monthly | Paid yearly, per month | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brevo Starter | $46Der | $41.42Ver | Brevo's pricing page has a Yearly billing switch labeled 10 percent off, and its calculator prints the yearly price per month at every email volume stop on Starter, Standard and Professional. |
| HubSpot Professional | $1,390Der | $1,250Der | Billed as 12,000 contacts. Monthly payment still carries a 12 month commitment. |
| HubSpot Enterprise | Not sold monthly | $3,600Ver | Billed as 10,000 contacts. Sold billed annually only. |
Sources: the Brevo pricing page and HubSpot's pricing calculator.
Brevo's yearly switch and HubSpot Professional's annual payment land close together, about 10 percent off each. The difference is the meter underneath: Brevo's bill follows monthly email volume, while HubSpot's follows marketing contacts, sold in packs of 5,000 on Professional.
Starter marketing-contact packs from the catalog
Verified pack rates. These bands feed the worked examples above. Midpoints between bands are not filled into an eight-stop matrix.
| Marketing contacts | Monthly add | Confidence |
|---|---|---|
| up to 1,000 | included | Verified |
| 1,001 to 3,000 | $50 | Verified |
| 3,001 to 5,000 | $45 | Verified |
| 5,001+ | $40 | Verified |
Sends and what each one counts
Brevo bills on monthly send volume. Each Starter and Standard band sells a number of emails a month and caps stored contacts underneath, so a larger list or more frequent sends can both move the Brevo bill. HubSpot marketing email send limits scale with the marketing-contact tier: Starter at 5 times, Professional at 10 times, and Enterprise at 20 times that tier. Those HubSpot multiples are catalog feature limits, not a separate dollar meter.
Brevo. Brevo bills send volume, so a blocklisted contact costs nothing to send to and Brevo says as much. It also says blocklisted contacts are still added to the total number of contacts, and since October 2025 that total is capped by the send band. So they do not cost sends and they do consume the cap.
HubSpot. For new customers after 5 March 2024, Marketing Hub Starter is priced per Core Seat, and Professional and Enterprise start at a base price that includes Core Seats. Marketing contacts sit on top of the edition: included contacts come with the base, and further contacts are sold in catalog bands. Non-marketing contacts are free up to an overall contact ceiling of 15 million (marketing plus non-marketing). Exceeding the marketing-contact tier bills immediately. Designating contacts as non-marketing takes effect at the start of the following month or contract renewal, whichever comes first, and contact-tier downgrades wait until renewal.
Storage is the generous part and sending is not. Brevo holds 100,000 contacts for nothing, which is more than any paid plan below the 20,000 send band allows, and removing the daily send cap is the main thing Starter buys. HubSpot Marketing Hub has no free edition on the recorded catalog ladder.
