Quick answer

Omnisend bills per billable contact (subscribers plus non-subscribers), so lists grow into higher tiers fast. Trim non-subscribers, drop add-ons you do not use and compare tiers.

Most likely fix: Reduce billable contacts

How to fix it

Try these in order — the most common fix is first.

  1. 1. Reduce billable contacts

    1. Remove invalid and long-inactive profiles
    2. Review non-subscribed profiles you do not need
