What Is Livestorm? Browser Webinars Paid per Attendee
By Joris van Huët · Livestorm's own site
The short answer: if your webinars draw a few hundred real attendees a year and your team wants to run them from a browser, Livestorm's pricing fits that shape: the smallest Pro pack is 400 attendee credits at €2.50 each, €1,000 a year, and people who register but never show up cost nothing, per the pricing page and the plans article, both checked on 26 October 2026. It is a Lyon-based webinar and virtual event platform for marketing teams, hosted in the EU.

Before you buy a pack:
- Count attendees, not sign-ups. A credit is used per person per session, live, replay or on demand, per the plans article. For example, four webinars a year with 90 live attendees and 25 replay-only viewers each use 4 x (90 + 25) = 460 credits, which is past the 400 pack.
- Ask about HubSpot in writing. The pricing page marks the HubSpot integration "Enterprise plan only", while the HubSpot help article says it is open to all plans, including Free. If your CRM is HubSpot, settle it before you sign.
- Watch the counter. Usage sits under Account settings > Billing; on Pro, new attendees are turned away once credits run out.
What Livestorm does
Attendees join from a browser with nothing to install, and pages, emails and the room come in 24 languages, per the pricing page. Each event gets a registration page, five automated emails, and a room with chat, questions, polls and up to 25 people on stage, per the first-event guide. Recording is on by default.
A beta AI feature turns recordings under two hours into a summary, blog draft, email draft and social posts, per the content article, and the Livestorm MCP server lets Claude or ChatGPT create events, register people and read engagement data.
Who it suits, and who it does not
It suits a European marketing team running recurring webinars, demos or customer training that wants EU hosting and ISO 27001 certification, both on the homepage, for an audience counted in hundreds.
It suits less well an event above 3,000 live attendees or longer than 4 hours a session on Pro, the limits in the pricing table. The free plan is for evaluation only: 30 attendee credits a year, 30-minute events and no email editing, per the free plan article.
What it costs
Pro tiers, billed as a yearly pack, checked on 26 October 2026 on the pricing page and in the plans article:
| Credits a year | Per attendee | Total in EUR | Total in USD |
|---|---|---|---|
| 400 | €2.50 | €1,000 | $1,200 |
| 1,000 | €2.40 | €2,400 | $2,900 |
| 1,500 | €2.30 | €3,450 | $4,125 |
| 2,500 | €2.15 | €5,375 | $6,500 |
| 4,000 | €2.00 | €8,000 | $9,600 |
Enterprise is quoted and adds 12-hour sessions. Pro's paid add-ons, such as live translations, restreaming and SAML SSO, are sold only once a plan holds at least 1,000 credits, per the plans article. That gate means a team that needs restreaming buys the bigger pack whether or not its audience does, which is how attendee pricing grows Livestorm's revenue faster than your list.
How it compares
Contrast counts registrants instead of attendees, with Pro from $99 a month on yearly billing for its smallest tier, and lists its HubSpot integration on Pro, per its pricing page. For a HubSpot-first software company, that decides it.
Zoom licenses webinars per user per month, in plans starting at 500 attendees, per its webinars page, whose prices load in the page and could not be read here. If your company already runs on Zoom and hosts large audiences often, a host licence is easier to forecast than credits.

FAQ
Do no-shows use attendee credits?
No. A credit is spent only when someone joins the room, watches the replay or watches on demand, per the plans article.
Do team members count as attendees?
No. Workspace members can host, test and moderate without spending credits, and team seats are unlimited, per the pricing page.
What happens when the credits run out?
On Pro, new attendees cannot join, while people already counted can return and registration stays open; Enterprise runs on with overage, per the plans article.
