HubSpot Marketing Starter boosts discount to 55%, hides price details
What happened
Between the May 11, 2026 and May 18, 2026 captures of HubSpot's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Starter promotional banner updated: headline changed from 'Save up to 40% off' to 'Save up to 55% on', and specific 'was $15/$20' price callouts replaced with vague 'special Starter pricing / select offers for a limited time'. Pulse files it as a pricing change (discount change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Sep 21, 2026) lists Starter at $7, Professional at $800 and Enterprise at $3,600.
It lands 7 days after HubSpot's previous change, "Hubspot Marketing Starter reveals $9.00 per 1,000 credits pricing" (May 11, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Hubspot Marketing Starter refreshes pro and enterprise plan taglines" (Apr 13, 2026), "Hubspot Marketing Starter refreshes plan taglines for sharper positioning" (Feb 23, 2026) and "Hubspot Marketing Starter launches $9/mo seat-based annual pricing" (Apr 6, 2026). HubSpot has been tracked since 2025-01-01.
In the same window Zoho, Freshworks, Microsoft, ActiveCampaign and Salesforce also changed their CRM pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
