How Much Does Close Cost?
Updated August 6, 2026· every figure checked against the vendor’s own pricing page
Close costs $19 per user a month on Solo, $49 on Essentials, $109 on Growth and $149 on Scale, if you pay month to month. Commit to a year and those become $9, $35, $99 and $139. All figures verified on Close's own pricing page on August 6, 2026. The page opens with the annual toggle already selected, so the first figure most people see is the committed rate. Two things worth knowing before you compare: Solo is capped at one user and 10,000 leads and excludes workflows, and calling and SMS are named in the product from the Essentials tier rather than sold as an add-on.
RangeYourself has no affiliate relationship with any CRM on this page as of August 6, 2026: every link here goes straight to the vendor’s own site and earns us nothing. We may pursue one in this category, and if we do we will say so here. Either way the ordering follows published prices and each vendor’s own stated terms, and a vendor that pays nothing is listed on exactly the same basis as one that does.

Every Close tier, on both billing terms
Read from https://www.close.com/pricing on 2026-08-06. Close publishes a price for every named tier on both billing terms and lists the per-tier limits that matter operationally, including connected email accounts and call-recording retention. The page opens with the annual toggle already selected, so the first figure a visitor sees is the annual rate presented as a monthly one.
| Tier | Month to month | Billed annually | What the tier adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Solo | $19/user/mo | $9/user/mo | Limited to 1 user · Limited to 10k leads · Workflows not included · 3 connected email accounts · 30 days call recording retention |
| Essentials | $49/user/mo | $35/user/mo | Unlimited contacts & leads · 3 connected email accounts · 30 days call recording retention · Workflows not included |
| Growth | $109/user/mo | $99/user/mo | Automated workflows · Power dialer · 10 connected email accounts · 90 days call recording retention |
| Scale | $149/user/mo | $139/user/mo | Role-based access & permissions · Predictive dialer · Unlimited call recording retention · 10 connected email accounts |
Close advertises “SAVE UP TO 50%” for annual billing. On its cheapest paid tier the arithmetic on its own two published figures is 111% more to stay monthly, the largest monthly premium of any CRM in this index.
What Close costs a real team in year one
Arithmetic on published figures only: the cheapest paid tier’s annual per-seat rate, times twelve, times the seats, plus any required one-off fee the vendor states. A row says not calculable rather than estimating a missing component.
| Year one for a team of 3 | Total | How that is made up |
|---|---|---|
| Close | $324 | $9/user/mo billed annually on Solo, times 12 months, times 3 seats. |
| Pipedrive | $504 | $14/user/mo billed annually on Lite, times 12 months, times 3 seats. |
| Zoho CRM | $504 | $14/user/mo billed annually on Standard, times 12 months, times 3 seats. |
| HubSpot Sales Hub | $252 | $7/user/mo billed annually on Starter, times 12 months, times 3 seats. The rate used is a current discount against a struck-through $20 per-seat list price rather than a standing rate, so this total assumes the discount holds for twelve months. |
Close’s cheapest paid tier is Solo, which the vendor caps at one user, so a three-person team cannot actually buy at that rate. The row above is the arithmetic the published figures produce; the tier a team of three would buy is Essentials, and the index page prices that separately.
What is included that other CRMs charge for
Close's pricing page states “Built-in forms, email, calling & SMS” on Essentials, and “Make/receive calls worldwide within Close” in its feature table. That puts it in a small group: 3 of the 8 CRMs in this index name a calling capability anywhere on their own pricing page. For the others, the absence is an absence from the page and not evidence that the product lacks calling.
| Tier | Call recording retention | Connected email accounts |
|---|---|---|
| Solo | 30 days call recording retention | 3 connected email accounts |
| Essentials | 30 days call recording retention | 3 connected email accounts |
| Growth | 90 days call recording retention | 10 connected email accounts |
| Scale | Unlimited call recording retention | 10 connected email accounts |

This page compares what each vendor publishes about price and terms. It makes no claim about which CRM is easier to use, faster to implement or better supported, because those are not things a pricing page can establish and we have not tested them.
What is not on this page
- Any commission. RangeYourself has no affiliate relationship with Close, and the link here goes to close.com.
- Any figure Close does not publish. Close names a custom-priced option for larger teams; it publishes no figure for it, so neither do we.
- Any claim about how Close performs. This is a price and terms comparison.
Worth saying plainly, because it shapes what you are reading: RangeYourself currently has no affiliate relationship with any CRM on this page, and every vendor link here goes straight to the vendor’s own site. If that changes, this line changes with it. Either way nothing here is written to push you towards a demo, no vendor pays for placement, and the ranked tables sort on published prices rather than on anything we are paid.
Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest Close plan?
Solo, at $19 per user a month month-to-month or $9 billed annually, verified on August 6, 2026. Close caps it at one user and 10,000 leads and excludes workflows, so a team needs Essentials at $49 month-to-month.
Is the price on Close’s pricing page monthly or annual?
The page loads with the annual toggle already selected, so the first figures shown are the annual rates presented as a monthly per-user price. Switching to monthly raises every tier. Both sets of figures are in the table on this page.
Does Close include calling?
Yes, and its own pricing page says so: "Built-in forms, email, calling & SMS" appears on the Essentials tier and "Make/receive calls worldwide within Close" in the feature table. The power dialer arrives on Growth and the predictive dialer on Scale.
Does Close have a free plan?
Not a free tier. Close states a free trial with no credit card needed, plus a 30-day money-back guarantee on paid plans. If a permanently free tier is what you need, Zoho CRM and Attio both publish one, and HubSpot publishes a free tier for up to two users.
How much does Close cost for a team of five?
On the tier a five-person team can actually use, Essentials, that is $35 per user a month billed annually, which is $2,100 for the year, or $245 a month if you stay monthly. The published Solo rate is cheaper but is capped at one user.
How we verify this
Every figure on this page was read from the vendor’s own pricing page and is stored with that page’s URL, a verbatim quote, and the date it was checked (most recent: August 6, 2026). Most of these pages render their prices in the browser rather than in the served HTML, so they were read in a browser at the same URL, with both billing toggles set in turn. Where a vendor publishes no number, we say so instead of repeating a figure from elsewhere. A blank in the calling column means the vendor’s pricing page names no calling capability, which is a statement about the page and not a claim about the product. Percentages and totals are arithmetic on published figures only. See our editorial standards and how we verify.
