Basecamp Pricing in 2026

Verified 2026-07-27  ·  by Sebastian Bru

The only tool here that does not gate features behind higher tiers. Above roughly twenty people its flat-rate plan is the cheapest option in this comparison by a wide margin.

All Basecamp plans and prices

Prices are per user, per month, in US dollars. The annual column reflects the discounted rate you get for paying twelve months upfront.

Plus $15$15 Unlimited projects, 500 GB storage, every feature, unlimited free guests
Pro Unlimited $299$349 Flat rate, unlimited usersEverything in Plus, 5 TB storage, priority support, annual billing discount

What Basecamp actually costs your team

Per-seat pricing hides the real number. This is the monthly total on annual billing, including any seat minimums the vendor enforces.

What the pricing page does not tell you

Pro Unlimited is a flat $299 per month, not per user. The break-even against the Plus plan is exactly 20 people, and past that the savings grow fast.
External collaborators are free on every plan. If you work with contractors or clients, the real comparison against per-seat tools is wider than it looks.
The free plan allows one project and three people, which is a trial rather than a usable tier.

Is Basecamp worth it?

That depends on which of the costs above apply to you. If you are comparing against other tools, our comparison pages put the real numbers side by side.
