Instantly's sending plans cost $47 a month (Growth, 5,000 emails), $107 (Hypergrowth, 125,000 emails) and $358 (Light Speed, 500,000 emails) on monthly billing, or $37.60, $85.58 and $286.30 a month billed yearly, about 20% off. Hypergrowth went from $97 to $107 since our October check. Mailboxes are a second purchase: $5 a month for each done-for-you Google account, $10 for a pre-warmed one and $4 for an AirMail SMTP inbox. Warmup is included in every plan, and the CRM is now included from Hypergrowth. Domains ($15 a year), placement tests and lead credits are billed separately.

Prices below are from instantly.ai/pricing and its pricing.md, checked November 4, 2026; help-center details were read October 2, 2026.

The monthly and yearly cards and the feature table now all say 125,000 emails for Hypergrowth. The contact limit is not monthly: "The uploaded contact limit is a fixed limit across all campaigns, not per month." Instantly's pricing summary says you upgrade instead of paying an overage charge. When you pass a limit, you move up a plan, or on Hypergrowth and Light Speed you buy an Outreach add-on at $87 a month for 125,000 more emails and 25,000 more contacts.

Instantly also sells bundles of an Outreach plan and lead credits: Starter $94 a month, Scale $194 and Agency $555 on monthly billing, or $85, $175 and $500 billed yearly ("Save 10%").

Instantly discounts

The published discount is yearly billing: Growth $37.60 instead of $47, Hypergrowth $85.58 instead of $107 and Light Speed $286.30 instead of $358, about 20% off, paid a year ahead; bundles are 10% off yearly. The pricing page and pricing.md list no coupon code or promotion. Credits bought on yearly plans expire a year after purchase, on monthly plans after 2 months.

Monthly list prices with done-for-you Google accounts at $5 and the cheapest Outreach plan that covers 25 emails a day per mailbox (method). Warmup is in the plan, so the total is a full setup. Domains are left out.

25 mailboxes send 13,750 emails a month, above Growth's 5,000, so Hypergrowth is the first plan that fits; 1,000 send 550,000, above Light Speed's 500,000, so one $87 add-on goes on top. With AirMail inboxes at $4 instead of Google accounts, the totals are $207, $507, $1,794 and $4,445. With pre-warmed Google accounts at $10, they are $357, $1,107, $4,194 and $10,445. Yearly billing lowers the plan part by about a fifth. Outreach2day is $2.50 a mailbox up to 99, $1.50 from 100 and $0.50 from 1,000.

With SmartSenders mailboxes at $4.50, 25, 100 and 400 mailboxes cost $206.50, $544 and $2,179 a month on Smartlead (Smartlead pricing).

Instantly Cost per 1,000 Emails

Cost per 1,000 emails = monthly price ÷ monthly emails × 1,000. Growth is $47 ÷ 5,000 × 1,000 = $9.40 for the sending plan alone. These figures assume you use every included email; the mailbox bill is added below.

An annual price paid up front is shown here as its monthly equivalent.

For a full setup, the denominator is the capacity of the mailboxes: mailbox count × 25 cold emails a day × 22 working days. At 25 mailboxes that is 13,750 emails, so $232 ÷ 13,750 × 1,000 = $16.87. At 100 it is 55,000; at 400, 220,000; at 1,000, 550,000.

Outreach2day is $2.50 ÷ 550 × 1,000 = $4.55 at 25 mailboxes, $1.50 ÷ 550 × 1,000 = $2.73 at 100 and 400 (the volume price from 100 mailboxes) and $0.50 ÷ 550 × 1,000 = $0.91 at 1,000. This includes the mailbox, warmup and sequencer. If you send half the modeled volume, cost per 1,000 doubles. Follow-ups consume part of the same capacity; count the whole sequence when using the cold email capacity calculator. The cold email cost guide also includes domains and the first checkout, and the cold email cost calculator prices Instantly with its own accounts or with Google Workspace, Maildoso, Mailforge or Zapmail mailboxes for any daily volume. What one email costs by provider and mailbox type is in our cold email cost per email report.

Is Instantly Worth It? Who Each Plan Fits

Choose a plan by monthly emails and stored contacts, then decide which separately billed tools you need. A mailbox is assumed to send 25 cold emails a day for 22 working days: 550 a month, including follow-ups.

Dedicated server/IP rotation and lead-priority sequencing

Growth fits a smaller campaign whose full sequence stays within 5,000 emails and 1,000 stored contacts. Ten mailboxes at the modeled volume would send 5,500, so they would exceed that allowance. For a three-step sequence, 1,000 contacts can consume up to 3,000 emails before replies and removals reduce later steps.

Hypergrowth covers the 25- and 100-mailbox examples. Its contact allowance is fixed across campaigns, so a contact list can hit the limit before monthly sends do. The $87 add-on raises both limits by 125,000 emails and 25,000 contacts. At 400 mailboxes, Hypergrowth plus one add-on covers the modeled 220,000 emails for $194; Light Speed costs $358 and adds the server/IP features. Choose those features separately from the arithmetic.

Actual capacity also depends on the number of working days, the sending schedule and whether each mailbox is ready to send. Warmup traffic is separate from the cold-email model used in these tables.

Lead discovery, verification credits, placement testing and the CRM each have another bill. A team with its own contacts and mailbox provider can pay for Outreach alone. A team buying Instantly's done-for-you Google accounts pays the plan plus $5 per mailbox; pre-warmed accounts raise that line to $10. Review the total at your mailbox count before choosing a plan.

Differences to know: Instantly sells Google accounts (ours run on our own infrastructure and land in the inbox), has a free trial (we have none) and lead data in the same tool.

For the full picture, the Instantly review prices Instantly as a complete setup at 1,000, 5,000 and 10,000 emails a day, and Instantly vs Smartlead, Instantly vs Apollo and lemlist vs Instantly compare it with each rival on the same volumes.

FAQ

How much does Instantly cost a month?

$47 for Growth, $107 for Hypergrowth and $358 for Light Speed on monthly billing, or $37.60, $85.58 and $286.30 a month billed yearly. Mailboxes bought from Instantly are extra: $4 to $10 each a month.

How much is the Instantly Hypergrowth plan?

$107 a month on monthly billing or $85.58 a month billed yearly, for 125,000 emails a month and 25,000 uploaded contacts, with the CRM, Unibox replies and webhooks. It was $97 when we checked on October 2, 2026. The $87 Outreach add-on adds 125,000 emails and 25,000 contacts.

Does Instantly have a discount or coupon?

The discount Instantly publishes is yearly billing: about 20% off the Outreach plans and 10% off the bundles. Its pricing page and pricing.md list no coupon code.

Does Instantly include warmup?

Yes. Every Outreach plan includes unlimited warmup. Done-for-you and pre-warmed Google accounts join the premium pool at no extra cost. The premium pool contains Google and Microsoft accounts; access for eligible third-party accounts starts at $500 a month per workspace.

Can I use Instantly's done-for-you accounts in another tool?

No. The help center says: "Instantly DFY email accounts are exclusively configured for use within the Instantly platform." Instantly also keeps the domains: "We currently retain domain ownership and administrator access for any purchases and are unable to transfer them over."

Can I use my own mailboxes in Instantly?

Yes. Every Outreach plan allows unlimited email accounts. With Outreach2day mailboxes at $1.50 (the price from 100) and Hypergrowth, 100 mailboxes cost $257 a month instead of $607 with done-for-you Google accounts.

Does Instantly have a free plan?

Instantly lists a 14-day free trial with no credit card, 250 uploaded contacts and 1,000 emails. It does not list an ongoing free Outreach plan. Its trial credits are separate from the sending allowance. When the trial ends, choose a paid Outreach plan to keep sending and using purchased mailboxes.

Is Instantly.ai worth it?

For campaigns below 5,000 emails and 1,000 contacts, Growth is $47 a month plus mailboxes. Higher volumes, in-app replies or webhooks require another plan. Compare the full plan, mailbox and add-on bill at your volume; the 100-mailbox Google setup above is $607 a month.

Instantly is sending software; the sender must comply with the rules that apply to the message and recipient. The FTC's CAN-SPAM compliance guide requires accurate headers, non-deceptive subjects, commercial-message identification, a valid postal address and an opt-out honored within 10 business days. It also covers business-to-business commercial email. Other jurisdictions have different consent and privacy rules; check those before sending. Software does not supply permission to contact someone.

How much does Instantly cost per email?

At the full included allowance, Growth's $47 plan is $0.0094 per email, or $9.40 per 1,000. With 100 Google mailboxes and Hypergrowth, $607 ÷ 55,000 is about $0.01104 per cold email, or $11.04 per 1,000 at the modeled volume. Sending less raises the unit cost.

Does Instantly offer refunds?

No. The terms say all fees are non-refundable, including done-for-you and warmup services. You can cancel at the end of the billing cycle.
