Livestorm Review (2026)€2.50 Per Attendee, Per Session

Pricing (2026)

✓ Pricing re-verified 22 Oct 2026

There is still no plan price. Pro is sold as attendee credits, bought as a yearly pack up front, with sessions up to 4 hours and unlimited team members; Enterprise is quote-only with sessions up to 12 hours. The rate depends on the currency you pick on the page, and the two are not conversions of each other: €2.50 per attendee in euros, $3.00 in dollars.

Their own definition, worth reading twice because it decides your bill: one credit is spent for each unique participant, per session, over a 12-month period. Someone attending two different sessions costs 2 credits; the same person joining live and later watching the replay of that session counts once. Registrants who never show up cost nothing, and your own team members never consume credits.

Plans change — always verify the live price on their site.

What the price did

We capture Livestorm’s own pricing page every month and keep the figures, so this is our record of the page — not a forecast, and not someone else’s summary.

The honest knock

You buy credits up front — €2.50 each in euros, $3.00 in dollars, set separately rather than converted — and a credit is spent per unique participant per session, so a four-part series to the same 200 people is 800 credits, not 200, which is €2,000. A webinar that does better than expected runs you out, and the page is now clear about what that means: new attendees cannot join until you buy a higher tier.

The page publishes the per-attendee rate but never a total. Before you commit, count sessions times expected attendees for the whole year, and plan to use them within the billing year, because Livestorm's help centre (read 22 October 2026) says unused credits do not roll over. There is no pause option either, and cancelling after the renewal date brings no refund.

What a credit actually costs you

There is no plan price. Pro is sold as attendee credits bought as a yearly pack up front, at EUR2.50 each in euros or $3.00 in dollars — two rates set separately rather than one converted into the other, so the currency you buy in is part of the decision. The definition of a credit is the whole of the rest of it: one credit is spent for each unique participant, per session, over a twelve-month period.

Per SESSION. A four-part series to the same 200 people is not 200 credits but 800 — EUR2,000 rather than EUR500. The rules that work in your favour are worth knowing too. No-shows cost nothing. Someone who joins live and then watches that session's replay counts once. Team members never consume credits, so internal dry runs are free. What moving up cannot fix is the timing, because you buy a year of attendance in advance.

Run the pack out and the page is now explicit: new attendees cannot join until you buy a higher tier. Enterprise behaves differently at the limit. The help centre says Enterprise plans can go beyond their quota by default and that attendance past the included credits may result in overages, so the hard stop applies to Pro. Both plans received the rebuilt event Room announced on 20 October 2026 at no extra cost, rolling out that day on Free, Pro and Premium plans and from 27 October on Business and Enterprise plans.

Against WebinarGeek, which sells Premium by viewer tier (€59 a month billed annually for up to 75 viewers, read 3 October 2026), the credit model favours infrequent events. A pack of 400 credits at €2.50 is €1,000 a year, enough for four sessions of 100 attendees; WebinarGeek's 75-viewer tier is €708 a year and is not consumed per session. A team running a weekly webinar to the same 60 people spends credits every week on Livestorm, while the viewer tier only caps how many can join at once.

Questions we are still checking

How to actually use Livestorm

Count sessions multiplied by expected attendees for the whole year before you buy anything, because you buy the pack up front and the unit is not what most people assume. One credit is spent per unique participant, per session, over a twelve-month period — so a four-part series to the same 200 people is 800 credits, not 200. Check which currency you are quoted in before you compare this to anything.

The page sells the same credit at €2.50 in euros and $3.00 in dollars, and those are separate prices rather than one converted into the other. Two parts of the definition work in your favour: registrants who never show up cost nothing, so budget on expected attendance rather than sign-ups, and your own team never consumes credits. Spend the pack inside the year. Livestorm's help centre (read 22 October 2026) says unused credits do not roll over to the next billing period; the one exception is an upgrade, which carries the remaining credits into the bigger plan.

Run out mid-year and new attendees are turned away until you upgrade, although people already counted can rejoin and registration stays open. On the free plan, test inside its limits: 30 attendee credits a year, sessions of up to 30 minutes, 10 events per organisation and 10 automated actions per event, with no expiry date on the plan itself. Email editing and custom templates are switched off on Free, so the reminder and follow-up emails can only be judged on a paid plan.

The natural comparison is Zoom Webinars or Demio — the usual alternatives — both price per host per month, so compare that against your credits divided across a year. Weigh it against Zoom Webinars on the job you actually need done.

Frequently asked questions

How does Livestorm's pricing actually work?

You buy a yearly pack of attendee credits at €2.50 each and spend one credit per unique person per session over a 12-month period. Two sessions attended by the same person cost two credits; joining live and then watching that session's replay costs one. Read on 17 August 2026; the €2.50 rate (and $3.00 in dollars) was unchanged on 30 September 2026.

Do I pay for people who register and never turn up?

No. Livestorm states that only real participants count — people who join live, watch a replay or watch on demand — so no-shows cost nothing. That is the meaningful difference from seat-based webinar tools, where you buy a room size and pay for it whether it fills or not. Your own team members are also free.

Is there a Livestorm coupon or lifetime deal?

We have found neither, and both are searched for. Because the product is sold as prepaid credits rather than a subscription, the lever that exists is volume: you buy the pack that matches your expected attendance, and unused credits sit in the 12-month window. Size the pack from last year's actual attendance rather than from registrations.

Do unused Livestorm credits expire?

Yes, at the end of the billing period: the attendee-credits article (read 22 October 2026) says unused credits don't roll over. Upgrading during the year is the one route that keeps them, because remaining credits are carried into the bigger plan. Downgrades take effect at the end of the current period, there is no pause option, and there is no refund if you cancel after the renewal date. Plans renew automatically each year on the same day and month.

What does the Livestorm free plan include?

30 attendee credits a year, events of up to 30 minutes, 10 events per organisation with up to 20 sessions each, and 10 automated actions per event, with no time limit on the plan. Editing emails and adding custom email templates are not available on Free. Livestorm describes the plan as intended for evaluation. Read 22 October 2026 in its help centre.

What happens to my Livestorm events if I cancel Pro?

The account drops to Free and you keep access with a limited view of your data and statistics. Livestorm says it deletes events and their sessions, external speakers and registrants, chat messages, polls and questions, and instant meeting rooms, and that all event data is permanently deleted 30 days after the cancellation takes effect. Download replays and run exports before the subscription ends.

Which Livestorm add-ons need a bigger pack?

On Pro, the paid add-ons become available once the plan includes at least 1,000 attendee credits. Livestorm AI Studio, the add-on that turns replays into short clips, announced with the acquisition of Qlip on 2 June 2026, is also a paid Pro add-on. Multiple workspaces, a premium SLA and video hosting are Enterprise-only. Add-ons are switched on through a Customer Success Manager or sales@livestorm.co, and their prices are not published.

Can Livestorm be run from Claude or ChatGPT?

Since 31 August 2026 Livestorm is a verified connector in Claude's directory. The announcement says it works in Claude's web and desktop apps, Claude Code and ChatGPT, is available on every Livestorm plan including Free, signs in with OAuth rather than an API key, and can be connected by workspace owners and admins; if the Public API is not yet enabled on a workspace, support has to switch it on.
