What SavvyCal costs over 36 months

Every figure below is SavvyCal's own published rate, annualised and multiplied out over 36 months at 10 users. Where SavvyCal publishes no rate, the row says so instead of guessing.

Plan Charged List rate At 10 users 36 months
Basic Per user, per month $12/mo $120/mo $4,320
Premium Per user, per month $20/mo $200/mo $7,200

The same plan at four team sizes

SavvyCal charges per user, so the 36-month figure scales linearly with headcount. These are Basic totals, on annual billing, with no fees added.

Team size36-month total
5 users $2,160
10 users $4,320
25 users $10,800
50 users $21,600

Renewal sensitivity: three scenarios, not a forecast

Nobody knows what SavvyCal charges in 2029. The table below is arithmetic on a rate you choose, not a prediction: it compounds the year-one total forward at 0%, 5% and 10% so you can see how much of the 36-month figure is exposed to a renewal you have not negotiated yet.

What sits outside the SavvyCal list price

4 lines, sorted by when in the contract lifecycle they land. Lines marked as derived are arithmetic on SavvyCal's own tier table rather than vendor prose.

Each line, what triggers it, and how to avoid it

Vendor-specific term

Stated on the pricing page: Annual pricing not displayed on page

What triggers it. A SavvyCal-specific term with no obvious analogue elsewhere in appointment scheduling. It matters because SavvyCal lists at $120 a month for 10 users and this clause sits outside that unit entirely.

How to avoid it. Raise it explicitly during the SavvyCal quote conversation and get the answer into the order form. What is not written into the contract is not part of the price you think you agreed.

Contract and commitment terms

Stated on the pricing page: Cancellation requires action within 30-day money-back window

What triggers it. Contract mechanics rather than a fee. They decide whether the $4,320 total is locked, and how expensive changing your mind in month 14 turns out to be.

How to avoid it. Read the auto-renewal and notice terms before the discount. A good rate on a contract you cannot leave is a worse deal than a fair rate on one you can.

Feature gated to a higher tier

Derived from the published tiers: Moving from Basic to Premium costs a further $2,880 over 36 months at 10 users, which is 1.7x the entry total.

What triggers it. Fires when a requirement lands that Basic does not cover. The jump is rarely proportional: you pay the higher tier across the whole 10 users basis to unlock one capability.

How to avoid it. List every gated capability you will plausibly need in three years, then price SavvyCal at that tier from the start. Comparing entry tiers you will not stay on is how a $4,320 plan becomes a much larger invoice.

Seat expansion

Derived from the published tiers: Five more users on Basic add $2,160 across 36 months, on top of the $4,320 above.

What triggers it. Triggered by hiring. Every figure above is priced at 10 users; this line is what each unit past that costs, and it compounds for the remainder of the term rather than the remainder of the month.

How to avoid it. Audit entitlements quarterly. On a three-year term, seats assigned to people who left are the most reliably wasted money in the whole appointment scheduling budget.

How that compares across scheduling and appointment booking

The median scheduling and appointment booking tool we track charges $12 a month at its cheapest paid tier. Re-expressed on the same basis as the figure above, 10 users for 36 months, that median works out at $4,320.

SavvyCal lands $0 below that figure, 0.0%, measured across 7 tracked tools. A gap either way is a question, not a verdict: cheaper often means fewer included seats or a thinner support tier, and the fee lines below are where that difference usually reappears.

What changes at enterprise scale

Everything above prices the self-serve ladder. Enterprise sits off that ladder, which means the $4,320 figure is a floor for a large deployment rather than an estimate of one.

No separate enterprise tier published; Premium covers most team needs.

Frequently asked questions

How much does SavvyCal cost over three years?

$4,320 on Basic at 10 users, billed annually, which is $120 a month held flat for 36 months. That figure covers the subscription only.

Does paying SavvyCal annually save money?

SavvyCal publishes the same effective rate either way on Basic, so there is no prepay discount to capture. Keep the monthly option unless the vendor offers something for the commitment.

What does SavvyCal charge for outside the plan price?

4 lines: vendor-specific term, contract and commitment terms, feature gated to a higher tier, seat expansion. Each one is broken down above with what triggers it and how to avoid it.

Could SavvyCal cost more at renewal?

Possibly, and nothing on this page predicts it. If the rate held flat the three-year total would be $4,320; at a hypothetical 10% a year it would be $4,766.40. Cap the uplift in the contract and the question stops mattering.

What does SavvyCal cost for a team of 25?

$10,800 over 36 months on Basic, billed annually. SavvyCal charges per user, so that scales directly with headcount.
