Add-Ons: Extending Your Plan Limits

Dave J.ยทMay 12, 2026

If you are running out of contacts, emails, AI credits, or email validations before your billing period ends, you can purchase add-on packs instead of upgrading to a higher plan. Add-ons stack on top of your base plan limits.


Available Add-Ons

MailBeast offers three add-on categories. Each add-on is sold in packs - use the sliders to choose how many packs you need.

You can purchase up to 50 packs of each add-on type. If you need higher limits, contact us via support chat for an Enterprise plan.


How to Purchase Add-Ons

  1. Go to Settings > Plan Usage tab.

  2. Scroll down to the Plan Add-ons section.

  3. Use the sliders to select the number of packs for each add-on type.

  4. The Your Cart panel on the right shows a live price preview with subtotal, tax, and total.

  5. Click the purchase button to complete the transaction.

Your additional capacity is available immediately after purchase.

Note: Add-ons require an active paid plan (Starter or Pro+). If you are on the free tier, you will need to select a plan first.


How Add-Ons Affect Your Limits

Add-on capacity stacks directly on top of your base plan:

Example:

  • Base plan (Starter): 8,000 contacts + 12,000 emails/month

  • Add-on: 2 packs of Contacts & Emails (+20,000 contacts + 40,000 emails)

  • Effective limits: 28,000 contacts + 52,000 emails/month

You can see your effective limits (base + add-ons) on the Plan Usage tab at any time.


Managing Your Add-Ons

Through the Plan Usage tab, you can only increase add-ons quantity. If you need to decrease or cancel your add-ons, you can cancel individual add-on subscriptions from the Billing tab under Modify button.

Managing add-ons from the Billing tab

All add-ons & subscriptions cancellations or downgrades take effect in the next billing period.
