What Klaviyo actually costs over a year
A monthly price is not the same thing as a monthly contract. These are the plans above resolved both ways, per seat or unit where the plan is charged that way. Where a vendor quotes only a yearly figure it is divided by twelve rather than left out, and the Quoted column says which figure the vendor actually publishes.
| Plan | Quoted | Monthly | Over 12 months |
|---|---|---|---|
| per month | $20 | $240 | |
| Email and SMS | per month | $20 | $240 |
Klaviyo pricing against its competitors
Compared on the smallest invoice each vendor will accept, not on the advertised per-seat rate. Where a product has a seat minimum, the figure below is the minimum times the rate, because that is the cheque you would actually write.
| Product | Cheapest paid entry | Free plan | Against Klaviyo |
|---|---|---|---|
| Omnisend | $16 a month | Yes | −$4 a month (−20%) |
| Klaviyo | $20 a month | Yes | This product |
| Mailchimp | $20 a month | Yes | Same |
Which Klaviyo plan should you buy?
| Your situation | Recommended | Why |
|---|---|---|
| You are testing with a tiny list | Free | Up to 250 profiles and 500 sends. Enough to connect your store and see the flows work. |
| You run a Shopify or WooCommerce store | From $45 a month, scaling with active profile count. Revenue attribution per flow is what you are buying. | |
| You want SMS in the same journeys | Email and SMS | Messaging credits are billed by region and carrier on top of the plan. |
| Your list is large | Check the profile-count tier first | Price scales with active profiles, so the $45 figure is an entry point. Suppressed profiles still count if active. |
| You have no product catalogue | Do not buy Klaviyo | The entire value is modelling purchases and products. Without those, use Brevo or MailerLite. |
Active profiles are the billing unit
Klaviyo charges on active profiles, meaning contacts who can receive marketing. The free tier allows 250 profiles and 500 email sends a month, and paid plans begin at $45 and rise with profile count.
The practical consequence is that suppressing unengaged contacts directly reduces your bill. On a 30,000-profile list where a third never open anything, cleaning it is worth real money every month as well as improving inbox placement. Treat list hygiene as a budget task with a calendar reminder.
Attribution is the actual product
Any tool can send an abandoned-cart email. Klaviyo tells you that the flow generated a specific amount of revenue in a specific period, because it holds the order data rather than receiving a webhook about it. That single capability is why stores tolerate the price difference against Mailchimp, and it is the thing to test during evaluation: connect your store, let real data flow for a fortnight, then look at whether the numbers tell you something you did not already know.
SMS is a separate cost
Mobile messaging is billed on credits that vary by country and carrier, and it sits on top of the profile-based subscription. The free plan includes $5 of mobile messages a month, which is enough to test the mechanics and nothing more. If SMS is central to your plan, model it separately rather than assuming it is bundled.
Where it is the wrong tool
If you do not sell products, most of Klaviyo’s advantage disappears and you are paying for a data model you cannot populate. A B2B company running nurture sequences will be better served by a marketing automation tool built around leads and deals, and a newsletter publisher will find Klaviyo’s pricing hard to justify against creator-focused platforms.
