Woodpecker pricing: three plans, free seats, priced add-ons

Woodpecker Email costs $39 a month, and the price holds for any number of seats. Every plan includes unlimited team members. LinkedIn costs $29 and Multichannel costs $68. Scale has no public price and sends you to a sales call.

Seats are free, so the extras decide your bill. Lead Finder credits, mailboxes, domains and API access each carry their own line. Hit the email cap and new prospects stop getting mail.

The contract is strict. A refund needs an unused account and a fast request. Annual billing can’t be refunded at all.

Founders with a few reps and one channel should start on Email. Use the free trial and price your extras before you pay. Agencies pay a per-client fee on top, so they should total it early.

One catch on the figures. Woodpecker never says which billing toggle its prices sit under. Annually shows a saving but no annual price.

Email has no seat charge, so add-ons and contract terms set the bill

Email caps you at 5,000 emails sent, whatever your team size. A founder and five reps see the same card. Mailshake Email Outreach charges per seat, and 5 seats cost $245 a month there.

Email also includes unlimited contacts storage, unlimited email verification and 3 warm-ups. You get 100 Lead Finder credits and unlimited email accounts too. Multichannel keeps that cap and adds 1 LinkedIn account.

Go over the cap and the campaign won’t send new emails to new prospects. Woodpecker never bumps your plan. You choose: upgrade, or wait.

Every stalled day is a day you send nothing new.

Extras priced on top of the plan

Woodpecker prices optional extras separately and adds them to your plan. These are the lines most sending setups touch:

• Additional Lead Finder credits start at 500 credits for $10.
• Additional warm-ups cost $5 a month per email account.
• Google or Microsoft email addresses cost $6 a month each.
• Maildoso, Mailforge, Infraforge or Azure addresses cost $4 a month each.
• New domains cost about $1 a month each, billed annually.
• Dedicated Infraforge servers cost $59 a month each.
• Azure domain hosting costs $20 a month per domain.
• Integrations, API, webhooks, MCP and CLI cost $20 a month.
• Active clients cost $27 a month each, and White Label adds a fee per client.

Run more than 3 mailboxes and every extra one needs its own warm-up line. Count your mailboxes before you pick a plan.

Agencies feel the client lines most. An in-house team can skip them.

Outbound workshops are optional too. The minimum is 4 sessions of 2 hours, and each extra session costs $500.

A refund needs an unused account within three days, and annual plans get none

Woodpecker’s terms of service renew you automatically and let it change prices. Its own words:

• Renewal: “Our Premium Subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing cycle, whether on a monthly, annual or custom-based basis.”
• Cancelling: “To cancel your subscription, please visit the Billing section within our app.”
• Refunds: “If you fail to cancel within three days after a payment has been processed, you may request a refund, provided that your account has not been used.” The same terms add that the Pause Plan and Annual Plan are non-refundable.
• Price changes: “We reserve the right to change Our prices and/or pricing models including the metric that You are charged for during the term of this Agreement.”

A cold-email tool is in use from the first campaign. In practice the free trial is your real refund policy.

The Annual Plan saves 33% but you can’t get it back. If you are unsure, pay monthly.

Woodpecker’s terms also say the website price is for reference only. The binding price is the one inside the app. Check it there before you pay.

Woodpecker’s pages give no contract term for Scale. Ask on the sales call.

Each plan suits one channel mix

Pick by channel. If you send only email, Email fits. If you work only on LinkedIn, LinkedIn fits. Multichannel runs both in one campaign.

Email. Choose it for cold email at volume with several people sending. You get 3 warm-ups and unlimited verification. A founder plus a couple of reps can share one account.

LinkedIn. Choose it if your outreach lives on LinkedIn. It covers 1 LinkedIn account.

Daily limits are 250 direct messages, 30 connection requests and 500 profile visits. You also get 50 InMail messages a month. It lists no email allowance.

Multichannel. Choose it to mix email and LinkedIn in one campaign. It has the same email cap and 1 LinkedIn account with all LinkedIn actions. Woodpecker marks it the most popular plan.

Woodpecker does not say whether Multichannel beats buying Email and LinkedIn apart.

Scale. Choose it if you need more emails or LinkedIn slots than the standard tiers. Scale shows a Book a call button and no figure.

Agencies should read the add-on block closely. The Agency Panel is an add-on, and each active client costs extra.

35 Trustpilot reviews show a 2.5 rating and repeated refund complaints

Woodpecker holds a 2.5 rating across 35 Trustpilot reviews, as of 2026-11-05. Of those, 21 are one-star and 9 are five-star. Three are two-star and 2 are four-star. None is three-star.

Six of the 10 newest reviews give one star. Two of the six say there are no refunds, dated 2026-04-13 and 2026-02-05.

The 2026-02-05 reviewer also wrote that “it’s very easy to end up paying for things you didn’t clearly intend to buy”. That is one reader’s claim. It points at the add-on lines, so read them first.

A one-star review dated 2026-08-31 describes spending many credits on 250 company details. The reviewer was then told they could not add emails. Check what Lead Finder credits cover during the trial.

Praise exists too. A five-star review dated 2026-02-25 praised MCP, which builds campaigns through a chatbot. MCP sits on the integrations add-on. A four-star review dated 2026-04-21 praised stats export and lead management.

Smartlead wins on email volume and Saleshandy on refunds, while Woodpecker wins on seats

Smartlead Base lists 6,000 emails and 2,000 contacts for $39 a month. Woodpecker Email lists unlimited contacts storage and fewer emails.

If email volume decides, Smartlead Base gives you more. Its terms give no refunds if you cancel mid-period. See Smartlead’s plans.

Saleshandy Starter costs $41 a month, with 1 seat and 1,500 credits. It gives you a 10-day refund window and a 7-day trial. Woodpecker gives 3 days and 14 trial days.

If a longer refund window beats a free seat, see Saleshandy’s pricing.

Instantly Growth costs $47 a month and lists 5,000 emails and 1,000 uploaded contacts. That is more than Woodpecker Email for the same email count. Instantly calls all fees non-refundable. See Instantly’s plans.

Mailshake Email Outreach costs $49 per seat a month. Three seats cost $147 on monthly billing. Woodpecker Email stays flat.

Mailshake also sells a $29 Starter plan with 1,500 emails. Read the Mailshake plans if you send little.

The widest gap sits in multichannel. For $68 you get unlimited seats at Woodpecker. Reply.io Multichannel costs $99 per user a month, so 5 seats cost $495.

Reply.io also bills LinkedIn Automation at $69 a month per account. See the Reply.io plans.
