Pricing analysis Tier-by-tier Hunter Campaigns pricing for 2026 : what's included, what scales the bill, and where Derrick App's €20/month entry plan fits as a cheaper web app + Sheets alternative. Buyer-side analysis based on real G2 + Capterra reviews + the vendor's published pricing.
Plans
Hunter Campaigns ships 5 tiers. Per-seat pricing combined with a credit system for data lookups - the listed price is rarely the real cost.
Hunter Campaigns ships 5 pricing tiers that map to specific buyer profiles - solo SDRs through enterprise procurement. Hunter prices in EUR (€), not USD.
| Plan | Price (monthly) | Price (annual) | Best for | Limits / Inclusions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | €0 | €0 | Evaluation only | 50 credits/mo · Campaigns with 1 mailbox |
| Starter (bundled with Hunter Starter) | €49/month | €34/month (-30%) | Solo SDR cold outreach | 2,000 credits/mo · 3 mailboxes · A/B testing |
| Growth (bundled with Hunter Growth) | €149/month | €104/month (-30%) | Active small-team cold outreach | 10,000 credits/mo · 10 mailboxes · advanced workflows |
| Scale | €299/month | €209/month (-30%) | High-volume sales teams | 25,000 credits/mo · 20 mailboxes · API access · priority support |
| Enterprise | Custom | Custom | Procurement / very high volume | Custom credits + mailboxes · dedicated CSM · SSO |
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.
Credits
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.

Side-by-side : Hunter Campaigns versus Derrick App on the cost lines that drive total spend, not just the headline tier price :
| Dimension | Hunter Campaigns | Derrick App |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing entry | $49/month (bundled with Hunter Starter) | Free plan · from €20/month |
| Bundled finder + sender | Yes (Hunter + Campaigns) | Pair with any sender |
| Warm-up engine | Not included - BYO | N/A |
| AI personalization | Not available | Via LLM enrichment |
| Multi-mailbox UX | Weak - no master inbox | N/A |
| Best for | Solo SDRs on Hunter, < 1K emails/mo | No-install enrichment (web app, Sheets, Claude, API) |
Hunter Campaigns wins on stack-collapse for solo SDRs on Hunter. Dedicated cold-email tools (Smartlead, Instantly, Saleshandy) win on deliverability infrastructure, AI features, and multi-mailbox UX. Derrick is the enrichment layer (web app, Sheets, Claude, API) for Hunter-driven outbound workflows.

The verdict
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.

Hunter Campaigns starts at $49/month (bundled with Hunter Starter) (Hunter prices in EUR: €49/mo, or €34/mo annual - 2,000 credits/mo · 3 mailboxes · A/B testing). Higher tiers scale to Scale at €299/month (€209 annual, 25,000 credits, 20 mailboxes, API), plus a custom Enterprise tier. For a credit plan whose unused credits roll over, Derrick App starts at 20 EUR/month for 10,000 credits spent in the web app, Google Sheets, Claude or the API.
Hunter Campaigns's free tier provides Free Hunter tier includes Campaigns (limited) - useful for evaluation but rarely enough for production use. Paid plans start at $49/month (bundled with Hunter Starter). For a genuinely free entry point, Derrick App offers a free tier with 100 credits/month.
Hunter Campaigns's headline price ($49/month (bundled with Hunter Starter)) is the floor. No warm-up engine - you bring your own warmed mailboxes. For new domains, you'll need Mailwarm ($29/mo), Warmup Inbox ($19/mo), or InstantlyWarm separately. 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.
Hunter Campaigns starts at $49/month (bundled with Hunter Starter) and scales with usage + seats. Derrick App runs on credits : a free plan with 100 a month, then 10,000 for 20 EUR, spent row by row in the web app, Google Sheets, Claude or the API, and what you do not use rolls over. For solo sdrs already on hunter that don't need the full cold email outreach platform feature surface, Derrick is the lower-friction comparison anchor.
Tier-by-tier flexibility on Hunter Campaigns depends on the plan. See the plans table above for per-tier credit caps, seat counts, and upgrade triggers. Annual billing typically saves ~15-30% versus monthly across the category. The free tier (Free Hunter tier includes Campaigns (limited)) is genuinely free, but caps usage tightly.
For web app or spreadsheet workflows, Derrick App from 20 EUR/month is the most direct lower-cost alternative. For broader B2B database access at low entry cost, Apollo has a generous free tier (10K credits/month). For pure email finding, Hunter starts at €34/month.
