Dashlane pricing
Dashlane prices per seat per month in three tiers: Starter, Team and Business. Reported prices are $2 for Starter, aimed at small teams, $5 for Team, reported for 5 to 10 seats, and $8 for Business, which comes from Dashlane's 2022 one-sheet. The newer Starter and Team names come only from third-party reviews, and another breakdown disagrees. Billing is annual only. Add-ons, annual discounts and renewal terms are not published. Because no current price is on the official site, request a written quote that states the tier, seat minimum and renewal terms.
| Plan | Price | Unit | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $2 | per seat/month | Third-party report (expertinsights.com), small teams |
| Team | $5 | per seat/month | Third-party report, 5-10 seats |
| Business | $8 | per seat/month | Dashlane 2022 one-sheet says $8 per user/month |

Questions to ask about price
- What is the price per user or per unit, and what is the pricing basis (seats, employees, usage)?
- What is the discount for annual billing, and can we start monthly?
- Which features we need sit in add-ons or a higher plan, and what do they cost?
- How much can the price rise at renewal, and is the increase capped in the contract?
- Are there one-time costs for implementation, onboarding or data migration?
Is Dashlane worth the price?
Dashlane looks inexpensive on paper, with reported prices from $2 to $8 per seat, and it suits small and mid-size teams that want a polished app employees will actually use. The awkward part is buying: with no public pricing and conflicting third-party numbers, you cannot compare it cleanly. Teams that need transparent pricing without a call, or privileged access management, will find it a poor match.
Worth it if
- Small and mid-size teams that want a polished employee-facing app.
- Companies that want SSO-based login in a mainstream tier.
Look elsewhere if
- Teams that need transparent public pricing without a call or checkout.
- Organizations needing privileged access management.

Our verdict on Dashlane
Dashlane is a business password manager, and the first cost fact is that it does not publish current business pricing on its official site. Third-party reviews report Starter at $2, Team at $5 and Business at $8 per seat per month, with Business matching an older Dashlane one-sheet from 2022. Those sources conflict with each other, so get a written quote before you budget.
There is no free plan, but there is a free trial, and billing is annual. The same uncertainty shows up in reviews, where users say tiers and plan names are unclear across sources. On Business at the reported $8, 20 users would cost $1,920 per year, though that price is not confirmed for 2026. G2 rates it 4.5 from 615 reviews.
