How does Popl’s pricing work for teams?
Popl’s pricing is designed to be simple, flexible, and value-driven. You only pay for the leads your team captures, ensuring your costs are directly tied to the value you receive. Every lead collected is an opportunity, and you never overpay for what you don’t use.
This model is a breath of fresh air compared to traditional event lead capture pricing, which is often complicated, unclear, and based on factors like event attendance, integration needs, and team size - none of which truly reflect the value you receive.
Why does Popl charge based on leads captured?
Leads drive business growth, and Popl ensures every in-person interaction turns into a real opportunity. Our pricing is designed to align with the value you receive - paying based on leads captured means you’re only charged for results, not arbitrary fees. This performance-based model makes lead capture simple, scalable, and directly tied to your success.
What makes Popl’s pricing model better than traditional event lead capture tools?
Most event lead capture pricing is complex, full of hidden fees, and difficult to scale. Popl simplifies this with:
- Transparent, usage-based pricing - pay for the leads you capture, not confusing licenses or seat restrictions.
- No rigid seat assignments - teams can capture and manage leads seamlessly.
- Simple purchasing options - buy exactly what you need, without complicated contracts.
- Popl’s approach means companies focus on maximizing ROI, not managing complicated lead capture logistics.
What happens if my team captures more leads than we originally purchased?
- For enterprise customers, any additional leads captured beyond your pre-purchased amount will be charged as overages. Our team will ensure clear communication on usage so there are no surprises.
- For self-serve customers, lead capture is pay-as-you-go, meaning you’re automatically billed for the leads your team collects each month.
