SavvyCal pricing is simple but easy to misunderstand because its free account is not a normal free public-booking tier. The live annual pricing page shows Basic at $10/user/month and Premium at $17/user/month, while Toollers research records monthly rates of $12 and $20. Annual billing saves two months, and paid plans are backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Quick verdict

Budget for Basic if you need public scheduling links. Premium is only necessary for custom domains, delegated assistant access, custom sending domains, removal of SavvyCal branding or Stripe paid bookings. Basic already includes team modes, workflows, CRM integrations, API/webhooks and SavvyCal's strongest availability controls.

Key takeaways

  • Free account $0 but public links inactive
  • Basic $10 annual-equivalent / $12 monthly
  • Premium $17 annual-equivalent / $20 monthly
  • Annual saves two months
  • 30-day guarantee
  • Per-user billing
  • Basic has team modes/API/workflows
  • Premium adds branding/delegation/payments

Pros
  • Free account supports meeting polls, calendar overlays and drafting/testing links.
  • Basic starts at $12/user/month or about $10/month on annual billing.
  • Invitees can overlay their own calendar on top of the host's availability.
Cons
  • Free users cannot activate their own public scheduling links.
  • Premium rises to $20/user/month monthly or about $17 annual-equivalent.

Free account

SavvyCal lets anyone create an account at no cost and explore meeting polls, calendar overlays and scheduling configuration.

The key restriction is that free users cannot activate normal public scheduling links. That makes the free tier useful for evaluation and setup, but not a complete free-forever booking solution.

Basic annual price

The live pricing page shows Basic at $10/user/month on annual billing and says annual customers save two months.

That corresponds to about $120 per user per year. Basic is the realistic entry point for anyone who wants active public scheduling links.

Basic monthly price

Toollers research records Basic at $12/user/month on monthly billing.

A full year of monthly payments would therefore cost about $144 per user, roughly $24 more than annual billing.

Premium annual price

Premium is shown at $17/user/month on annual billing.

That works out to about $200 per user per year, consistent with SavvyCal's 'save two months' annual model.

Premium monthly price

Toollers research records Premium at $20/user/month on monthly billing.

Paying monthly for a full year would cost about $240 per user, around $40 more than annual billing.

Annual savings

SavvyCal presents annual billing as two months free rather than a percentage discount.

The model is simple and transparent: Basic effectively saves about $24 per user/year and Premium about $40 per user/year compared with paying the monthly rate for 12 months.

30-day guarantee

Paid plans are backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee.

SavvyCal says customers can request a refund within their first 30 days, no questions asked. This is the main risk-reduction mechanism because there is no conventional full-feature paid-plan trial.

Company billing

SavvyCal bills teams per user. Adding or removing teammates adjusts the paid seat count to match current usage.

This makes budgeting straightforward, but total cost scales linearly with team size.

Basic core features

Basic includes unlimited scheduling links, meeting polls, calendar connections and teams.

It also includes collective, round-robin and group scheduling, which means a team does not need Premium just to distribute or combine availability.

Basic automation

Basic includes reminders and workflows, conferencing integrations, CRM integrations, Zapier, API access and webhooks.

That is a strong value point because core automation is not locked behind Premium.

Basic availability controls

Basic includes optimized availability, ranked availability, time blocking and frequency limits.

These are some of SavvyCal's most differentiated features, and they are available on the lower paid tier.

Premium custom domains

Premium adds custom domains for scheduling links.

This is useful for client-facing businesses that want booking URLs to feel like part of their own brand.

Premium delegated access

Premium includes delegated access to an assistant.

Executives, founders and teams with scheduling coordinators can justify the higher tier specifically for this workflow.

Premium custom sending domains

Premium supports custom sending domains for scheduling emails.

This improves brand consistency and can matter to businesses that want all client communication to originate from their own domain.

Premium branding removal

Premium removes SavvyCal branding from the booking experience.

The feature is valuable for premium agencies and consulting firms but unnecessary for many solo users.

Premium paid bookings

Stripe paid bookings require Premium.

That makes Premium the practical tier for users who want to collect payment during scheduling. Stripe processing fees remain separate.

One Basic user

One Basic user costs about $120/year annually or about $144 if paying $12 every month.

The $24 annual difference is small enough that monthly billing can be reasonable while the user is still evaluating long-term fit.

One Premium user

One Premium user costs roughly $200/year annually or about $240 across 12 monthly payments.

The $40 saving makes annual billing more attractive after the Premium-only workflow has been validated.

Five Basic users

Five Basic seats cost about $600/year on annual billing.

At $12/user/month, the same five users would cost roughly $720 over 12 months.

Five Premium users

Five Premium seats cost about $1,000/year on annual billing.

At the $20 monthly rate, the same team would spend about $1,200 across a full year.

Ten Basic users

Ten Basic users cost around $1,200/year annually.

Monthly billing for ten users would reach roughly $1,440 over 12 months, a $240 difference.

Ten Premium users

Ten Premium users cost about $2,000/year annually.

Monthly billing would total about $2,400 over a full year, making the annual saving approximately $400.

Free versus Basic

The most important Free-to-Basic change is that Basic activates SavvyCal as a real public scheduling product.

Anyone who relies on public booking links should therefore treat Basic—not Free—as the practical starting price.

Basic versus Premium

Premium does not unlock a different core scheduling engine. Instead, it adds custom domains, assistant delegation, custom sending domains, branding removal and paid bookings.

Choose Premium only when one of those Premium-only capabilities is required.

Payments cost

Stripe's transaction fees remain separate from SavvyCal's seat price.

High-volume paid-booking businesses should model processor fees before comparing Premium with service-business scheduling platforms.

Automation cost

Zapier and other connected services may have their own paid plans.

When SavvyCal is part of a broader automated workflow, total cost should include those third-party subscriptions and maintenance effort.

Security procurement

SavvyCal currently does not hold SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certification.

That may be more important than subscription price for larger companies, because paying for Premium does not change that certification status.

Cancellation

Canceling a paid subscription leaves the account active until the end of the current billing period.

Afterward, active scheduling links are deactivated while free-account capabilities remain. Teams should inventory public links before cancellation.

Compared with Calendly

Calendly Standard is $10/seat/month annually, essentially the same headline annual entry price as SavvyCal Basic.

Calendly offers broader enterprise routing and a usable Free public tier; SavvyCal offers stronger overlay scheduling and focus-time controls.

Compared with Acuity

Acuity Starter is $16/month annual-equivalent, making it more expensive than SavvyCal Basic.

Acuity's higher price buys deeper service-business capabilities such as intake forms, memberships, packages and staff/location calendars.

Compared with Doodle

Doodle Pro is about $11/month annual-equivalent, close to SavvyCal Basic at $10.

Doodle is stronger for group polls, while SavvyCal is stronger for recurring recipient-friendly scheduling and calendar defense.

Compared with YouCanBookMe

YouCanBookMe Individual is $8.10/month annual-equivalent, below SavvyCal Basic.

YouCanBookMe emphasizes lower entry pricing and customization, while SavvyCal emphasizes overlay scheduling and protecting calendar quality.

Best-value recommendation

Choose Basic if you need active public links and SavvyCal's core scheduling/time-defense features.

Choose Premium only when custom domains, assistant delegation, branding removal, custom sending domains or paid bookings are necessary. Use the free account to configure the product first, then rely on the 30-day guarantee to validate the paid workflow.
