Discounts

501(c)(3) non-profits qualify for a special discount; new/small channels (under 1,000 subscribers) get promotional discounts on Pro.

TubeBuddy localizes displayed prices by region and runs frequent promotions (e.g., RisingStarBuddy 50% off Pro for channels under 1,000 subscribers), so checkout price may differ from list price above. Pro/Star/Legend Creator License Packages are restricted to individual creators, not businesses, per vendor terms. The vendor page could not be read directly, so these prices were cross-checked with third-party price trackers. Confirm on the official pricing page.
