The short answer

No. ActiveCampaign has no lifetime deal on any of the 7 marketplaces LemDeals tracks, verified 2026-09-20. We check this automatically every day against the public catalogs of AppSumo, PitchGround, DealFuel, Dealify, SaaSMantra, StackSocial, RocketHub, and the date in the table below is the last cycle that ran — not the date this page was written. ActiveCampaign has never appeared as a lifetime deal on the marketplaces we track; email-marketing lifetime deals usually come from smaller challengers.

ActiveCampaign is an email-marketing and automation platform for businesses that have outgrown basic newsletter tools.

What we checked, and when

Marketplace tracked	Refund window	ActiveCampaign listing found	Checked
AppSumo	60 days	No	2026-09-20
PitchGround	60 days	No	2026-09-20
DealFuel	30 days	No	2026-09-20
Dealify	30 days	No	2026-09-20
SaaSMantra	60 days	No	2026-09-20
StackSocial	15 days	No	2026-09-20
RocketHub	60 days	No	2026-09-20

Every "No" is an observation, not a prediction. On the date in the final column, ActiveCampaign was absent from that marketplace's public catalog. Deals that ran years ago, regional pricing and private offers all sit outside a catalog crawl's field of view, so treat this as "not buyable there right now".

Be careful what you buy instead

Be sceptical of anything selling a "lifetime activecampaign" outside the vendor's own checkout or a named marketplace. The recurring patterns are shared team seats, misused education accounts and relayed subscriptions — revocable, unrefundable, and worth nothing the day access is cut. If there is no stated refund policy behind the offer, treat the price as the whole risk.

What ActiveCampaign actually costs

ActiveCampaign lists its Starter plan at $15.00 per month. ActiveCampaign scales its price with contact count, so the entry figure applies at the lowest contact tier only. There is no free tier, so the subscription cost starts on day one. The table below shows what that adds up to, which is the number to hold a one-time-payment alternative against.

Time on ActiveCampaign	Cumulative subscription cost	Break-even lifetime price
1 year	$180	Any one-time price under $180 wins over 1 year
2 years	$360	Any one-time price under $360 wins over 2 years
3 years	$540	Any one-time price under $540 wins over 3 years
5 years	$900	Any one-time price under $900 wins over 5 years

The break-even column is deliberately blunt: lifetime deals are only good value if the tool survives long enough to pass the break-even line, and if you would genuinely have paid the subscription for that whole period. A $69 one-time deal that you stop using in month three cost more per use than a month of ActiveCampaign.

What ActiveCampaign costs as the team grows

Per-seat pricing means the number that matters is not the sticker price but the sticker price multiplied by headcount, compounded over however long you stay. At $15.00 a seat, a five-person team on ActiveCampaign spends $900 in year one and $2,700 across three years.

Seats on ActiveCampaign	Per month	Year one	Three years
1 seat	$15.00	$180	$540
3 seats	$45.00	$540	$1,620
5 seats	$75.00	$900	$2,700
10 seats	$150.00	$1,800	$5,400
25 seats	$375.00	$4,500	$13,500

Where ActiveCampaign sits on price against everything we watch

ActiveCampaign's $15.00 entry price ranks 18 out of 32 priced subscriptions in our watch list, which runs from Elementor at $4.92 to Semrush at $139.00. Inside email-marketing the median entry price is $15.00, putting ActiveCampaign exactly at the category midpoint — $0 a year per seat either way. Across every category we watch the median is $14.00. 2 of the 3 email-marketing tools we watch run a free tier, so for a small team the realistic comparison is often free plan versus one-time payment.

The table below is the price neighbourhood around ActiveCampaign — the six watched subscriptions closest to it on entry price, regardless of what they do. It is a sanity check on whether the money you are about to spend is normal for software of this size.

Priced near ActiveCampaign	Category	Entry plan, per month	Year one	Versus ActiveCampaign
Mailchimp	email-marketing	$13.00	$156	−$2.00/mo (−$24 a year)
Webflow	website-builder	$14.00	$168	−$1.00/mo (−$12 a year)
Pipedrive	crm	$14.00	$168	−$1.00/mo (−$12 a year)
Canva	design	$15.00	$180	same price
Kit (ConvertKit)	email-marketing	$15.00	$180	same price
Figma	design	$16.00	$192	+$1.00/mo (+$12 a year)

Price rank is not quality rank. What it does tell you is how much room a one-time-payment alternative has to be worth buying: the wider the gap between ActiveCampaign's annual cost and a lifetime price, the shorter the period you have to stay for the deal to pay for itself.

One-time-payment alternatives that are live now

If a one-time payment is what you are actually after, these are the email-marketing lifetime deals our tracker currently observes across the marketplaces above, cheapest first. Prices are the lowest observed tier on the most recent cycle. LemDeals is not the seller — every link resolves to the marketplace of origin.

Tracked lifetime deal	Category	Marketplace	Lowest observed price	Status
AI Powered Deals	AI	Dealify	$39.00	live
Agentica	AI	Dealify	$59.00	live
ListsGenie – Lifetime Subscription	AI	Dealify	$69.00	live
ZenCall - Lifetime Subscription	AI	Dealify	$99.00	live

Two things to check before buying any of them: the refund window on the source marketplace (shown per marketplace in the first table), and whether the tool covers the specific workflow you were using ActiveCampaign for. Category matches are directionally useful, not feature-equivalent.

What each of those prices is worth in ActiveCampaign months

Priced against ActiveCampaign's own $15.00/month entry plan, each one-time price below converts into a number of subscription months. If you would not have stayed on ActiveCampaign for at least that many months, the one-time deal is not a saving — it is a smaller purchase you did not need.

One-time alternative	Its price	Months of ActiveCampaign it equals	Share of one year on ActiveCampaign
AI Powered Deals	$39.00	3 months	22%
Agentica	$59.00	4 months	33%
ListsGenie – Lifetime Subscription	$69.00	5 months	38%
ZenCall - Lifetime Subscription	$99.00	7 months	55%

The same question, asked the other ways

People ask this in several phrasings that mean slightly different things. Answered separately, because the answers are not identical.

Does ActiveCampaign have a lifetime discount?

A lifetime discount is a permanently reduced recurring price, not a one-time payment — you still pay every month or year. ActiveCampaign scales its price with contact count, so the entry figure applies at the lowest contact tier only. On ActiveCampaign's $15.00/month Starter plan, even a permanent 30% cut would still cost roughly $126 a year, or about $630 across five years. We observe no one-time ActiveCampaign listing on the tracked marketplaces as of 2026-09-20. Recurring discounts, where they exist, come from ActiveCampaign itself at checkout, not resold by a deal marketplace.

Is there a ActiveCampaign one-time payment option?

ActiveCampaign publishes recurring pricing only, starting at $15.00 per month on its Starter plan — $180 in year one. The closest thing to a one-time payment in this space right now is a tracked AI listing — AI Powered Deals on Dealify at $39.00 — which is a different product, not a ActiveCampaign licence. Treat any "one-time ActiveCampaign" offer outside its own checkout as a resold or shared account.

Is there ActiveCampaign lifetime pricing or a perpetual licence?

Perpetual licensing means you keep using the version you bought, forever, with updates usually time-boxed. ActiveCampaign is cloud-hosted email-marketing software, so a perpetual licence in the classic desktop sense does not apply: what a marketplace calls a "lifetime deal" is one payment for access as long as the vendor keeps operating. In email-marketing specifically, the one-time listings we currently observe are AI Powered Deals, Agentica, ListsGenie – Lifetime Subscription — useful context for how common the model is in this category.

Is a ActiveCampaign LTD coming?

We do not predict launches, and neither should anyone else selling you a waitlist. What we can tell you is factual: ActiveCampaign has never appeared as a lifetime deal on the marketplaces we track; email-marketing lifetime deals usually come from smaller challengers. ActiveCampaign is an email-marketing and automation platform for businesses that have outgrown basic newsletter tools. We have run 48 checks against 7 marketplaces without seeing one, and this page re-runs every day, so if that changes the answer at the top changes with it.

How this page is maintained

The figures on this page have one source each: the tracker for what is listed, ActiveCampaign's own pricing page for what it costs. Both are re-read on our review cycle and the page is rebuilt from them, so a change in either shows up here rather than in a changelog nobody reads. Corrections are welcome and handled in public.
