Boomerang’s 2026 pricing page is still the four-tier ladder it has shipped for several years: Basic free with a 10-credit monthly cap, Personal at $4.98/month, Pro at $14.98/month, and Premium at $49.98/month, every paid plan billed annually. The Outlook version mirrors the structure with cents-rounded prices and a Teams tier instead of Premium. What changed in 2026 is the context around it: Gmail and Outlook both ship native Send Later, so Boomerang’s free tier is competing against a built-in feature for the first time. I pulled the live rates from boomeranggmail.com/subscriptions.html and boomerangoutlook.com/subscriptions.html on 2026-05-24 and worked out what a solo user, a three-person team, and a ten-seat team each actually pay, where the credit cap bites, what AI you get for the money, and who should skip the subscription entirely.
TL;DR: Which Boomerang Plan Fits You
Boomerang in 2026 has four Gmail tiers, all annual: Basic at $0 (10 credits/month), Personal at $4.98/month ($59.76/year), Pro at $14.98/month ($179.76/year), and Premium at $49.98/month ($599.76/year). The Outlook product swaps Premium for a Teams tier with custom pricing. Basic covers casual schedulers; Personal is the practical floor for daily use; Pro is the right ceiling for power users without Salesforce; Premium only earns its $599/year if your team runs Salesforce or needs Toolbox and GQueues.
| Setup | Best plan | Annual cost (annual billing) |
|---|---|---|
| Light user, occasional scheduling | Basic | $0 |
| Daily user, full feature set | Personal ($4.98/mo) | $59.76/year |
| Power user, no Salesforce need | Pro ($14.98/mo) | $179.76/year |
| Salesforce/CRM workflow | Premium ($49.98/mo) | $599.76/year |
| 3-person team on Pro | Pro x 3 | $539.28/year |
| 10-person team on Pro | Pro x 10 | $1 797.60/year |
All Gmail prices verified on boomeranggmail.com/subscriptions.html on 2026-05-24. Every paid tier is billed annually; the page does not publish a separate month-to-month rate. The 30-day free trial of Professional comes with every new account, no card required.
What Boomerang Is, and What You Are Paying For
Boomerang is a productivity layer that sits inside Gmail or Outlook as a browser extension or add-in. It does not host your mailbox. You are paying for scheduled sends, follow-up reminders, response tracking, read and click receipts, Respondable AI tone scoring, Inbox Pause, recurring messages, and (on Premium) Salesforce and CRM integration on top of your existing email account.
The thing to grasp before comparing line items: Boomerang is an add-on, not a client. Your mail still lives at Gmail, Google Workspace, Outlook, or Microsoft 365. Boomerang inserts buttons and panels into those existing interfaces. That changes what the subscription buys versus a full client like Spark or Mailbird. You are not paying for a new inbox; you are paying for behaviour on top of the inbox you already have.
What every paid Boomerang subscription includes on Personal and above:
- Unlimited message credits: no monthly cap on scheduled sends, reminders, or response trackers.
- Send Later: schedule a message to deliver at a specific date and time.
- Boomerang Reminders: resurface a message in your inbox at a future time if no reply arrives.
- Response Tracking: tag a sent message and get pinged if no reply comes in within N days.
- Read Receipts: see when a recipient opens the message.
- Click Tracking: see when a recipient clicks a link inside the message.
- Respondable: an AI tone-and-likelihood scorer that grades your draft on subject quality, length, reading level, question count, and politeness.
- Inbox Pause: block incoming mail from appearing in the inbox during focus blocks.
- Recurring Messages: schedule a message to repeat on a cadence (daily, weekly, monthly).
- Mobile apps: iOS and Android, even on Basic.
A clarification on credits, because the Basic cap is the most common confusion: a “message credit” is consumed each time you schedule a send, set a Boomerang reminder, or attach response tracking to an outgoing message. Ten credits cover roughly ten of those actions in a month. The Basic page lists the cap as “10 per month” without further breakdown; if you typically schedule one email per week, Basic is enough. If you defer or track several messages a day, you will exhaust Basic by mid-week and need Personal.
What Boomerang does not include at any tier: a generative AI writer in the style of Gmail’s Smart Compose or Spark’s writing assistant. Respondable analyses the draft you wrote; it does not write the draft for you. If you want generative AI inside your compose window, Boomerang is the wrong tool, regardless of price.
The Basic Plan: 10 Credits, Free Forever
Boomerang Basic costs $0 and includes 10 message credits per month, Send Later, Boomerang Reminders, and the mobile apps. Response tracking, read receipts, click tracking, Respondable, Inbox Pause, recurring messages, and the Salesforce integration are all paid-only on Personal and above.
I installed Boomerang Basic against a Gmail account and ran it for a week to confirm the cap behaviour. The honest read on what works and what does not:
What Basic actually delivers:
- 10 message credits per month: shared across scheduled sends, snoozes, and reminders.
- Send Later: full calendar picker, recurring not included.
- Boomerang Reminders: have a thread come back to the top of your inbox at a chosen time.
- Mobile apps: same iOS and Android apps used by paid users, with the same credit pool.
What Basic does not deliver:
- Response Tracking: paid-only from Personal upward.
- Read Receipts and Click Tracking: paid-only.
- Respondable: paid-only.
- Inbox Pause: paid-only.
- Recurring Messages: paid-only.
- Salesforce or CRM integration: Premium-only.
The honest question to ask before staying on Basic: does Gmail’s native Schedule Send already cover your case? Google added native scheduling to the Gmail web compose window several years ago. If “let me send this email at 9 a.m. tomorrow” is your only Boomerang use, native Gmail does the same job at zero credits and zero cost. The reason to stay on Boomerang Basic is the Reminders feature, which Gmail still does not natively offer; the reason to upgrade past Basic is everything else.
Personal Plan ($4.98/month): Unlimited Credits and AI
Boomerang Personal costs $4.98/month billed annually, which works out to $59.76/year. It removes the 10-credit cap, unlocks Response Tracking, Read Receipts, Click Tracking, Respondable AI tone scoring, Inbox Pause, and Recurring Messages. It is the practical floor for anyone who uses Boomerang’s productivity features daily on Gmail or Google Workspace.
Personal is the plan most paying solo users land on. The $4.98/month price has held steady, and the bundle covers the full feature set short of the Premium-only Salesforce integration. The math: you pay $59.76 once at start of year, no card surprises, and you get the same client behaviour for one cent under $5 per month.
What Personal adds on top of Basic:
- Unlimited message credits: no monthly cap on scheduling, snoozing, or tracking actions.
- Response Tracking: get an in-app reminder if no reply arrives within N days.
- Read Receipts: native receipt without recipient opt-in (the recipient is not notified).
- Click Tracking: per-link click telemetry on outbound messages.
- Respondable: AI tone scoring inside the compose window, ranking your draft on five dimensions.
- Inbox Pause: block all incoming Gmail until you unpause, useful for focus blocks.
- Recurring Messages: schedule “every Monday at 9 a.m.” style sends.
Respondable is the Boomerang feature that most often justifies Personal over Basic for sales and customer-facing users. It scores subject quality, message length, reading level, question count, and politeness, and gives a 1-to-100 “response likelihood” prediction. It is not generative AI; it grades the draft you wrote and suggests directions. If your job is writing emails that need replies, the score nudge alone tends to pay back the $59.76 annual fee.
Two caveats on Personal:
- Read receipts can backfire. Gmail recipients running blocker extensions like Ugly Mail or some privacy-first mail clients see read receipts as tracking pixels and may auto-block them. The receipt then fires when the blocker proxies the image, not when the human reads the message.
- Inbox Pause is browser-side. Pausing the Gmail web inbox does not pause mobile pushes from the native Gmail app, so set your phone separately or pause notifications system-wide.
For users whose inbox problem is subscription noise rather than scheduling, Boomerang is the wrong tool category. The best unsubscribe tools 2026 guide covers the right tools for that job, and they run alongside Boomerang without conflict.
Try Leave Me Alone freePro Plan ($14.98/month): The Power-User Tier
Boomerang Pro costs $14.98/month billed annually, which is $179.76/year. It includes everything in Personal plus higher Respondable usage allowances and the same unlimited credits. The feature delta versus Personal is small on the published pricing page; Pro mainly buys priority for heavy users and is the right ceiling for power users who do not need Salesforce or CRM integration.
Pro is the tier that sits awkwardly on the public pricing page. The comparison table shows the same checkmarks as Personal for Send Later, Reminders, Response Tracking, Read Receipts, Click Tracking, Respondable, Inbox Pause, Recurring Messages, and mobile apps. What you are paying $10 extra per month for, against Personal, is not visible as a distinct feature row; in practice it covers higher service-tier ceilings and the same feature set without throttling.
What Pro adds on top of Personal, based on the pricing page:
- Higher feature ceilings: unlimited tracking, scheduling, and Respondable use without practical limits.
- Same checkmark set as Personal for the visible feature rows on the published table.
- Eligibility for Group Discount if rolled into a Boomerang for Teams subscription.
The honest read for solo users: Pro is hard to justify against Personal unless you genuinely hit Personal’s limits (which most individual users do not). For three to five teammates who want a uniform plan, Pro is the natural collective ceiling because it qualifies for the Group Discount on a Teams subscription, but the per-seat math (below) is what to check.
For teams, the Pro tier becomes the candidate plan when the group conversation moves to Boomerang for Teams. Boomerang’s group page advertises centralised billing, team-wide administration, and a Group Discount, with rates set by quote rather than published on the public table.
Premium Plan ($49.98/month): Salesforce and CRM
Boomerang Premium costs $49.98/month billed annually, which is $599.76/year, the only Gmail tier that includes Salesforce and CRM integration, Toolbox, GQueues integration, and Premium Support. If your workflow does not depend on Salesforce or those two specific integrations, Premium is overkill at 3.3 times the Pro price.
Premium is the enterprise SKU. The pricing-table delta against Pro is concentrated in three rows: Salesforce/CRM integration, Toolbox, and GQueues integration, plus Premium Support as the named-contact upgrade. Everything else (unlimited credits, Send Later, Respondable, Inbox Pause, Recurring Messages, mobile apps) is identical to Pro.
What Premium adds on top of Pro:
- Salesforce and CRM Integration: two-way sync of tracked messages and responses with Salesforce records.
- Toolbox: Boomerang’s bundle of advanced workflow utilities (priority filtering, advanced rules).
- GQueues integration: task-manager sync for users who run GQueues as their primary GTD tool.
- Premium Support: named-contact support with priority response, versus Pro’s standard support queue.
The honest test for Premium: if you can name “Salesforce” as part of your team’s daily stack and the integration would replace a manual copy-paste workflow, Premium pays back. If you cannot, Premium does not. The $420 annual gap between Pro and Premium per seat is real money, and for ten seats it is $4 200 a year. A Pro team plus a separate Salesforce middleware tool often costs less than Premium and gives you more vendor choice.
Boomerang for Outlook: Same Ladder, Teams Instead of Premium
Boomerang for Outlook mirrors the Gmail ladder with prices rounded to the cent differently: Basic free with 10 message credits, Personal at $4.99/month billed annually, Pro at $14.99/month billed annually, and a Teams tier with custom pricing instead of the Gmail Premium tier. The feature set per tier matches Gmail closely; Teams adds central billing, team-wide administration, and a Group Discount.
The Outlook variant is structurally the same product. Boomerang for Outlook runs as a Microsoft 365 add-in and supports Outlook on the web, the desktop apps, and Outlook on iOS and Android. The pricing differences worth flagging:
- Personal and Pro prices: $4.99 and $14.99 per month billed annually, against Gmail’s $4.98 and $14.98. The one-cent gap is real on the page; the annual totals come out to $59.88 and $179.88 versus $59.76 and $179.76 on Gmail.
- No Premium tier on Outlook. Outlook caps at Pro for individuals and routes higher-tier needs through Teams.
- Teams tier replaces Premium. Custom pricing, includes “Unlimited access to Boomerang Pro for your entire team” plus enterprise features like Share Free/Busy and Suggest Times for scheduling.
- Free trial is 14 days on Outlook, versus 30 days on Gmail. Both still drop to Basic after the trial if no plan is purchased.
The practical decision is identical between Gmail and Outlook: use Basic if you only need a handful of scheduled sends a month, move to Personal at the first frustration, ignore Pro for individual use, and reach for Teams (Outlook) or Premium (Gmail) only when a specific enterprise feature justifies the gap.
Free Trial: 30 Days of Professional
Every new Boomerang for Gmail account starts with a 30-day free trial of Boomerang Professional, no credit card required. Boomerang for Outlook offers a 14-day trial of the equivalent Professional features. When the trial ends, accounts revert to Basic at 10 credits per month unless a paid plan is purchased.
The trial is genuinely no-friction: install the extension or add-in, sign in to your mailbox, and the trial activates automatically with full Professional features. No card is taken at install time, and the trial does not auto-convert to a paid plan when it expires. Boomerang drops you back to Basic and leaves the decision in your hands.
Two practical points on the trial:
- Start the trial when you have a real send-later week. The features that justify a paid plan are response tracking, recurring messages, and Respondable. None of them show their value if you are not actively sending tracked or scheduled mail during the trial window.
- Test Respondable on a real outbound message you care about. The tool’s score is more useful as a calibration check than as a daily nudge; run three or four important drafts through it and see whether the suggested edits land before you decide $59.76/year is worth it.
Cost Math: What Each Setup Actually Pays
On annual billing, a Personal seat costs $59.76/year, a Pro seat $179.76/year, and a Premium seat $599.76/year. A three-person team on Pro runs $539.28/year; a ten-seat team on Pro runs $1 797.60/year. A ten-seat team on Premium runs $5 997.60/year. Basic is $0 for as many users as you connect, with 10 credits each per month.
Because Boomerang prices per seat with no household or family tier on Personal, the math is linear. Annual costs at the published Gmail rates:
| Setup | Plan | Per-seat annual | Total annual |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 user, occasional scheduling | Basic | $0 | $0 |
| 1 user, daily Personal | Personal | $59.76 | $59.76 |
| 1 user, full Pro | Pro | $179.76 | $179.76 |
| 1 user, Salesforce on Premium | Premium | $599.76 | $599.76 |
| 3 users, Personal | Personal x 3 | $59.76 | $179.28 |
| 3 users, Pro | Pro x 3 | $179.76 | $539.28 |
| 10 users, Pro | Pro x 10 | $179.76 | $1 797.60 |
| 10 users, Premium | Premium x 10 | $599.76 | $5 997.60 |
The single most useful number is the Personal-to-Pro step per seat: $120 more per user per year buys the higher service ceilings, group eligibility, and the same feature checkmarks. For a five-person team that is $600 extra per year. If your team genuinely uses tracking heavily, that step makes sense; if not, five Personal seats at $298.80/year covers the same daily workflow.
The Pro-to-Premium step is sharper: $420 extra per seat per year, justified mainly by Salesforce/CRM integration and Toolbox. A ten-seat team paying Premium is committing $4 200 per year above Pro, and that gap should map directly to documented Salesforce hours saved. Otherwise, downgrade the team to Pro and route the Salesforce link through a dedicated middleware tool with more vendor optionality.
For comparison, a Clean Email pricing Pro Annual subscription at the personal tier costs $39.99/year for one mailbox, and Fastmail Individual is around $60/year for the underlying mailbox itself. Those are different product categories; Boomerang is on top of your existing mailbox, not a replacement for it.
Who Should Skip Boomerang
Skip Boomerang if your only need is scheduled sends (Gmail and Outlook now include this natively), if you refuse browser extensions or Microsoft 365 add-ins, or if you need generative AI writing rather than tone scoring. Skip it also for high-volume cold-email use: Boomerang’s tracking is built for relationship email, not for bulk sequences where a sales-engagement platform is the right tool.
Boomerang’s value is specific: a polished productivity layer on top of Gmail or Outlook with response tracking, reminders, and Respondable. That focus is a strength, but it makes Boomerang wrong for several use cases.
Skip Boomerang, specifically, if:
- Native scheduled send is enough. Gmail web compose has a built-in Schedule Send button. Outlook on the web and on desktop both support delayed delivery natively. If “send at 9 a.m. tomorrow” is your only need, you do not need Boomerang at all, free or paid.
- You will not install an extension or add-in. Boomerang requires a browser extension on Chrome, Edge, Safari, and Firefox for the Gmail web interface, plus a Microsoft 365 add-in for Outlook. If your IT policy blocks add-ins, Boomerang is off the table.
- You need generative AI writing. Respondable scores what you wrote; it does not write for you. If your wishlist is “draft a reply for me,” you need Gmail Smart Compose, a Workspace AI add-on, or a client like Spark with a generative AI assistant in the compose window.
- You run cold email at scale. Boomerang’s tracking is built for one-to-one relationship email. For sequences, batched personalisation, and inbox warmup, a sales-engagement platform is the right category, and forcing Boomerang into that workflow burns credits without solving deliverability.
One thing Boomerang does not fix on its own: send-as setups across multiple addresses. If you need to send from a secondary identity inside Gmail, the Gmail send-as different address guide covers the native setup, and Boomerang sits on top of whichever identity you send from.
Verdict
Boomerang’s 2026 pricing is honest and tight: Basic at $0 is real but limited by the 10-credit cap, Personal at $59.76/year is the practical floor for daily users, Pro at $179.76/year is hard to justify for individuals but the right team ceiling, and Premium at $599.76/year only earns its keep with Salesforce or CRM integration. Boomerang wins for relationship-email users who want polished reminders, tracking, and tone scoring on top of Gmail or Outlook. It loses for casual schedulers (native works), generative-AI seekers, and cold-email senders.
Best for casual scheduling: Basic at $0. 10 message credits per month, Send Later, Reminders, mobile apps. Use this if you schedule fewer than ten messages a month and want Reminders that Gmail does not natively offer.
Best for daily personal use: Personal at $4.98/month annually ($59.76/year). Unlimited credits, Response Tracking, Read Receipts, Click Tracking, Respondable, Inbox Pause, Recurring Messages. The honest floor for anyone using Boomerang weekly.
Best for a power user without Salesforce: Pro at $14.98/month annually ($179.76/year). Same feature checkmarks as Personal with higher ceilings, and eligible for the Group Discount on Boomerang for Teams.
Best for a Salesforce-driven team: Premium at $49.98/month annually ($599.76/year). Salesforce and CRM integration, Toolbox, GQueues, Premium Support. Only worth it if Salesforce is in daily use.
Skip Boomerang if: native scheduling covers your case, you refuse browser extensions, you need a generative AI writer instead of a tone scorer, or you run cold email at scale.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Boomerang for Gmail cost in 2026?
Boomerang for Gmail has four plans, all billed annually: Basic at $0 with 10 message credits per month, Personal at $4.98/month ($59.76/year), Pro at $14.98/month ($179.76/year), and Premium at $49.98/month ($599.76/year). Paid tiers include unlimited message credits. There is no separate monthly billing option on the pricing page as of 2026-05-24.
Is Boomerang really free?
Yes, Boomerang Basic is free and includes Send Later, Boomerang Reminders, and the mobile apps, capped at 10 message credits per month. A message credit is consumed when you schedule, snooze, or set a reminder on an email. Response tracking, read receipts, click tracking, Respondable, Inbox Pause, and recurring messages are paid-only on Personal and above.
What does Boomerang Personal include?
Personal costs $4.98/month billed annually ($59.76/year) and removes the 10-credit cap, unlocks response tracking, read receipts, click tracking, Respondable AI tone scoring, Inbox Pause, and recurring messages. It targets individual users who hit the Basic ceiling and want full send-later plus follow-up automation without the Pro feature set.
What is the difference between Boomerang Pro and Premium?
Pro at $14.98/month and Premium at $49.98/month both include unlimited credits and the full Personal feature set. Premium adds Salesforce and CRM integration, Toolbox, GQueues integration, and Premium Support. If your team does not use Salesforce or need named support, Pro is the right ceiling and Premium is overkill at 3.3 times the price.
Is there a Boomerang free trial?
Yes. Every new Boomerang for Gmail account starts with a 30-day free trial of Boomerang Professional features (no credit card required). Boomerang for Outlook offers a 14-day free trial of Professional. After the trial ends, accounts drop to Basic unless a paid plan is purchased.
Does Boomerang have AI features?
Yes, Respondable is Boomerang’s AI tool. It scores draft messages on subject quality, length, reading level, question count, and politeness to predict response likelihood. Respondable is available on Personal, Pro, and Premium. Boomerang does not ship a generative AI writer in the style of Gmail Smart Compose; Respondable is analytical, not generative.
Who should skip Boomerang and use something else?
Skip Boomerang if you only need send-later (Gmail and Outlook now include it natively), if you live on the web and refuse a browser extension, or if you need a generative AI writer rather than a tone scorer. Native scheduling covers basic deferred sends; for full mailbox automation across providers, a desktop client like Mailbird offers similar follow-up tooling without a per-message credit model.
