— Cheapest for multiple accounts

The cheapest social media scheduler for multiple accounts

Most schedulers meter you by the account — per channel, per "social set," or per profile — so costs climb as you add accounts, especially several on the same network. Here's what each really costs at scale.

Quick answer

  • Cheapest for multiple accounts: Zilfu — flat $19 for 10 accounts, $79 for 100, with several accounts per network at no extra charge.
  • Cheap at low volume: Pallyy — but it meters per social set.
  • Climbs fastest: Buffer — per-channel pricing.
