Zapier cuts the Professional entry price

Zapier now lists Professional at $19 per month on annual billing instead of $19.99. Existing plans should be checked before the next renewal.

Zapier now lists its Professional plan at $19 per month for 750 tasks when billed annually, down from the $19.99 shown on 22 September 2026. The monthly option remains $29.99 on the official Zapier pricing page, retrieved 26 September 2026.

What to do now

  • Open your Zapier billing page and note the plan, task tier and renewal date.
  • Compare the renewal amount with Zapier's current official price, retrieved 26 September 2026.
  • If your account still shows the old annual entry price, ask Zapier support whether the new price applies automatically or only after changing plans.
  • Do not switch solely for the 99-cent difference. Check task volume and overage rules first.

What changed

The published entry price for Professional fell by $0.99 per month on annual billing, from $19.99 to $19. The included entry tier remains 750 tasks per month, while the free plan still includes 100 tasks per month. Those current figures come from the Zapier pricing page, retrieved 26 September 2026.

For a full annual billing cycle, the displayed monthly difference adds up to $11.88. That is a real change, but not a reason to rebuild a working automation stack. The larger cost driver is still the billing unit: task usage is drawn from a shared allocation and can vary by AI model tier, code runtime and connector type, so one workflow run can consume several tasks.

Who this affects

The change matters to prospective Professional customers and to existing customers approaching renewal. Zapier does not state on the public pricing page whether every existing subscription receives the lower figure automatically. Your account's billing page and renewal notice therefore remain decisive.

It does not change the practical comparison with n8n. Zapier charges by task; n8n Cloud charges by workflow execution. A workflow with several actions can therefore consume several Zapier tasks but one n8n execution. The cheaper entry figure narrows the sticker-price gap slightly without changing that billing logic.

Pricing pages can vary by currency, billing period and task tier. Confirm the final amount inside your account before changing or renewing a subscription.
