Plans & Pricing (per monthly active contact)

When you first sign up for Livestorm, you will get the Free plan. You'll be able to create and publish as many test events as you want for free. 

Then, you can upgrade to the Pro, Business, or Enterprise plans, either by yourself or by contacting our Sales team, depending on the plan you want.

We don't have license fees: you only pay for the amount of active contacts you need each month. You can choose between annual or monthly billing.

Customers who subscribed to Livestorm before June 13, 2022, should refer to their own plan and billing.

Active Contacts, Workspace Owner, Admins, Members, Registrants, Guest Speakers & Attendees

Each role, including the workspace owner, the admins, and the members, counts as an active contact.

Active Contacts

• An active contact is someone who has interacted at least once a month with Livestorm, regardless of the type of interaction. It could be by:

  • Registering to an event (no matter by which means).
  • Joining a live event or watching a replay (including on-demand).

  Examples:

  • If an active contact registers on the 1st of March but attends the event on the 1st of April, that will count as one active contact for March and one for April.

  • However, if an active contact registers on the 1st of March, participates in an event on the 10th of March, and watches a replay on the 15th of March, that will only count as one active contact for March.

  Deleting a registrant from your dashboard will not add an active contact to your account.

  • The active contacts number is computed from the first day of the month to the last day of the month.

  Example: If you subscribe to the Free plan on the 14th of October, you will have 30 active contacts until the 31st of October. Between the 1st of November and the 30th of November, you will have 30 active contacts.

  Livestorm Tip 👉 To know how many active contacts you will need, here's a quick calculation: for 4 events with 40 unique registrants each time in one month, you will have 4*40=160 active contacts. You will thus need the 200 active contacts/month plan. In addition, you will get a margin of 40 active contacts for other types of events, like meetings.

  Workspace Owner

  • It's the person who owns the account.
  • There is only one workspace owner by workspace.
  • The workspace owner is an admin by default.
  • This is the only one who can delete the workspace and the other team members.

  If you need to change the owner's email address, you can do it in your Account settings. All you have to do is click to edit and then enter the new email. Once the new email is confirmed, the account transfer will be complete.

  Admins

  • This role gives access to all the features of the workspace, except deleting it and the members.
  • The admin is the only one who can start and end an event.

  Members

  • The member is someone who has access to the dashboard and can enter the Event room before it starts.
  • This person can view and moderate the events assigned to them.

  Registrants

  They are all the people who register to an event:

  • People who don't belong to the workspace hosting the event, and who have no access to the workspace. They can be invited on stage to speak.

  Our platform works on a  first-come, first-serve basis. Registrants can reserve their spot before the event starts by clicking on their access link. We will count live attendees starting from 4 hours before the planned start of your event. 

  Anyone in your People tab of the event room with a grey dot next to their name would be someone who has reserved their spot, but is not currently online. They may not show up to the actual event, but if they've connected at least once, we'll save their seat in case they'll be back. We've opted for this logic because the majority of our customers need this "reservation" system.

  Guest speakers

  • Guest speakers are not part of the workspace and don't have access to the dashboard.
  • They are present at the event and can help moderate it, with a restricted access to the features of the room.
  • They can enter the room before the beginning of the event.

  Attendees

  • An attendee is someone who steps into the event room (or the waiting screen) at least one time.
  • They cannot share their webcam or audio.
  • However, they can be invited on stage at any time by members and guest speakers.

  Manage Your Subscription

  In your Account settings > Billing, you can check your active contacts usage and see how many left you have and for which period.

  

  If you’re close to the limit of active contacts, the workspace owner will be warned by e-mails, once 50%, 80%, and 100% of your active contacts for the month are reached. A banner will also be displayed in your Dashboard, visible to your whole team, warning you when 80% and 100% of your active contacts are used.

  When you reach the limit of active contacts, there are two possibilities:

  • If the contact has already registered or attended another event during the ongoing month, that person will be able to register to the event, even though the limit is reached.
  • If the contact is new, registering, attending an event, or watching a replay won't be possible.

  Upgrade

  You can upgrade your plan to add more active contacts. In that case, you will be charged based on a pro-rata computation until the rest of the month. If you upgrade, the changes will be applied immediately, and thus additional people will be able to enter the room without any problem.

  

  Example: you initially have subscribed to a monthly Pro plan for 100 active contacts at 99€. Halfway through the month, you decide to upgrade to 200 active contacts (which is 198€/month).

  • First, you will be charged half the new amount (since you will use this new plan for half of the month).
  • Then, you will be refunded half the amount you paid for the 100 active contacts plan (as you will not use this plan for the second half of the month).
  • For the next month, you will be charged 198€ since you are on the new plan.

  To have more than 1000 active contacts, you can contact our Sales team.

  When the limit is reached, and you choose not to upgrade, the registration of more active contacts (members as participants), manual, or through the API, is blocked. The additional people who try to enter will be redirected to a page stating that the room is already full. They won't be able to enter the room.

  Downgrade

  If you downgrade your plan, the price of the new plan you have chosen will be applied after the end date of your billing cycle. Just so you know, no additional charges will be applied.

  Downgrading from a yearly plan to a monthly plan is not possible. The downgrade is applicable at the end of the billing cycle.

  Cancel My Subscription

  Go to your  Settings > Billing > Manage plan > click on Cancel plan.

  All your event data will be deleted upon canceling so we recommend that you back it up beforehand.

  But before, make sure there's not something we can do to make you stay. Everything is possible 😉

  Billing & Payment

  Subscription Renewal

  Our plans are subscriptions, so they automatically renew each month (for monthly plans) or each year (for annual plans):

  • Monthly subscription: it will renew on the same day each month (if you sign up on March 3rd, your plan will renew on the 3rd of each month). 
  • Annual subscription: it will renew on the same day and month each year.

  We have a message right inside the Billing menu when you sign up, so there are no surprises 🙂

  You are free to cancel your plan at any time to avoid renewing, you can see more here: Manage Your Subscription.

  Hidden Fees

  There are no hidden fees! 💸 

  We cannot charge you unless you have accepted our consent checkboxes for the related subscription/add-ons.
