Pricing collected from hunter.io/pricing (May 2026). Credits are a single unified pool shared across Domain Search, Email Finder and Email Verifier — not split per tool. Hunter prices its plans by combined finder + Campaigns + verifier; Campaigns isn't sold standalone.
Hunter Campaigns bills actions in credits with non-equal costs. A 5,000-credit plan does NOT mean 5,000 lookups.
Hunter Campaigns pricing is bundled into Hunter's overall plans (priced in EUR). Hunter Starter at €49/month (€34 annual) includes both the email-finder + Campaigns with 2,000 credits and 3 mailboxes. Hunter Growth at €149/month (€104 annual) scales to 10,000 credits and 10 mailboxes. Scale at €299/month (€209 annual) adds 25,000 credits, 20 mailboxes and API access. Credits are a single unified pool shared across finder, search and verifier.
The combined finder + verifier + Campaigns subscription is materially cheaper than buying separate tools (Hunter €49 + Smartlead $39 + warm-up tool = $100+/mo). For solo SDRs doing < 1,000 emails/month, Hunter's bundle is the cheapest serious finder + sender combo.

| Bundled finder + sender | Yes (Hunter + Campaigns) | Pair with any sender |
| Warm-up engine | Not included — BYO | N/A |

| Best for | Solo SDRs on Hunter, < 1K emails/mo | Spreadsheet-native enrichment |

Hunter Campaigns's strongest included features (verified from G2 + Capterra buyer reviews) — the capabilities that make the platform worth its price :
Hunter Campaigns is the right tool for solo SDRs and small teams already on Hunter for email finding who want a simple bundled sender at low cost. At $49/month for finder + verifier + sender, the stack-collapse is genuine — separate finder + cold-email tools cost $80-$120/mo combined. The platform fails versus dedicated cold-email tools (Smartlead, Instantly, Saleshandy) on deliverability infrastructure (no warm-up engine), AI features (no icebreakers), and multi-mailbox UX (no master inbox). For its narrow ICP — solo Hunter users doing < 1K cold emails/month on warmed mailboxes — Campaigns is the cheapest finder + sender combo available. For scaling beyond that, dedicated tools are materially better.

Campaigns volume scales with Hunter tier — solo SDRs on Starter can hit the 500/day-per-mailbox cap during heavy campaign weeks. No AI personalization or auto-icebreakers — Hunter's Campaigns is intentionally basic on that surface.
