Prices change, so confirm with BetterContact before buying. ## Ways to pay less - **Two months free on yearly billing** (Annual discount): The pricing page says paying yearly means paying for 10 months and keeping all 12, and extends credit roll-over to 12 months. Source: https://bettercontact.rocks/pricing/ ## Key features - **Waterfall enrichment:** Requests a person's email or mobile number from more than 20 data sources one after another until valid data is found. - **Pay only for valid data:** One credit buys one verified email and ten buy a verified mobile number. The page says nothing is charged when no result is found. - **Verification built in:** Emails are checked by Bouncer. On Pro and above, catch-all emails are verified at no extra charge and mobile numbers are also verified. - **Connect Intelligence:** Scores each mobile number by likelihood to connect. Only the highest-scoring numbers are charged; scoring the low or bad ones is free. - **Waterfall lead finder:** Searches 7 or more contact databases in one query to build lead lists. - **API and integrations:** A REST API and native integrations, including HubSpot, Google Sheets, Make, Clay and Zapier, on the plans that list them. ## Good for - Reps who need mobile numbers as well as emails - Agencies that want many data providers behind one bill - Teams already building lists in Clay or HubSpot ## Worth knowing - A mobile number costs 10 credits, so 200 credits on Starter buys about 20 numbers. - Connect Intelligence, phone verification and catch-all verification are not on Starter. - Unused credits roll over, capped at twice the subscribed amount. - Yearly billing is offered as two months free, and extends credit roll-over to 12 months. ## ToolGPA grades **GPA: 2.4 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026. BetterContact looks for an email or phone across 20-plus data sources and charges only for valid results, from $15 a month. But a mobile number costs 10 credits, so the cheapest plan buys about 20 numbers, and phone verification isn't on it. - **Value for money: B.** $15 a month for 200 credits is inside the cheapest quarter on price, but the credits are few: about 20 mobile numbers. $49 buys 1,000. - **Free plan and trial: C.** 50 free credits at sign-up with no card, and no free plan after that. - **Features: C.** Waterfall enrichment, built-in verification, a lead finder and an API. Connect Intelligence and phone and catch-all verification aren't on Starter. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. It's a credit and enrichment-column tool you need to set up. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, with five integrations and an API. These are ToolGPA's own grades.

What you would give up is listed below. Whether that is worth the price is your call. It costs $180 a year. - You could make: It runs in a browser, which is where something home-made would run too. - You could not: Checking that an address exists without writing to it. - You could not: It plugs into other products, HubSpot, Google Sheets and Make among them, and has an API. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
