Features available on each Buffer plan
Buffer offers both paid subscriptions and a Free plan.
- The Free plan is ideal for individual users looking to schedule content on up to 3 social channels.
- The Essentials plan offers more features than the Free plan and includes access to Buffer’s advanced analytics, reporting, and engagement tools.
- The Team plan includes the same features as the Essentials plan but includes unlimited users and collaboration features so you can work alongside your team.
- The Agency plan is identical to the Team plan with a pricing twist! It includes a base rate of $120/month or $1,200/year for 10 channels, and then each channel from 11 on is priced at $6 a month or $60 a year.
How much does it cost to upgrade?
All of our paid plans are on a per-channel pricing model, so you pay for each channel you have connected to Buffer. To calculate the cost of your plan, you can check out our pricing calculator.
What counts as a channel?
Each social account you connect is a channel. For instance, a Facebook Page, Facebook Group, X/Twitter profile, Linked Page and Linked Profile would count as 5 channels.
Do you offer a free trial of your plans?
Yes, we offer a free 14 day trial so you can explore our paid features. If you start a free trial, you'll be placed on a trial of our Team plan, which includes access to our publishing, engagement, and analytics features. It also allows you to explore our paid features, including team functions such as inviting other users, setting up posting permissions, and draft/post approvals.
